Hope’s Journey: Overcoming Brittle Nails and IBS

For years, Hope struggled with brittle nails and the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), challenges that impacted both her confidence and daily life. Determined to find a solution, Hope joined Simone’s Reformed Wellbeing programme, which provided a tailored approach to nutrition, supplementation guidance, and lifestyle advice. This holistic plan helped address Hope’s concerns and set her on a path toward improved health and well-being.

The Challenges of Living with Brittle Nails and IBS

Brittle nails and IBS are often signs of underlying health imbalances. Nails that break easily or fail to grow strong can point to nutrient deficiencies or poor gut health. IBS symptoms such as bloating, digestive discomfort, and sluggishness can have a significant impact on daily life, stress levels, and even the enjoyment of special occasions.

Hope dealt with these challenges every day. Her nails were fragile, prone to breaking, and nearly impossible to grow. Painting them felt pointless, as her nail varnish would often chip within a day. On top of this, Hope’s IBS left her feeling bloated and uncomfortable after meals, with flare-ups triggered by stress or indulgent occasions like holidays.

Hope’s Experience

When we spoke to Hope, she shared her journey and how Simone’s wellness plan helped transform her health:

What were your initial symptoms?

“My main concerns were brittle nails that wouldn’t grow and digestive discomfort caused by IBS. I wanted to find a plan that could tackle both issues, giving me stronger nails and also helping to reduce bloating and discomfort after meals.”

Hope shared how the discomfort from her IBS left her feeling fatigued and uncomfortable after eating, especially at dinner time or after special occasions.

Had you tried other products or approaches before?

“Like many people, I tried cuticle oils in the past to strengthen my nails, but I didn’t see any real improvement. For my IBS, I started taking a course of probiotics, which made a small difference, but the results weren’t significant enough for me to keep going.”

What changes did you notice in your nails?

“After starting Simone’s wellness plan, I saw such a difference in my nails! They’re much stronger and grow faster than ever before. Even my nail varnish lasts longer before chipping, which is a clear sign my nails are healthier overall. I’ve never seen such consistent improvement.”

Did you notice changes in your digestion?

“Yes, absolutely! It took a few weeks to notice the changes, but after that, I saw a big improvement. My bloating is now far less frequent, and I don’t feel as uncomfortable after meals.

Even during indulgent occasions, like holidays or celebrations, I don’t feel as sluggish or bloated as I used to. And if I do experience a flare-up, it’s much shorter and easier to manage now. Simone’s guidance on which supplements and dietary changes would support me has been invaluable for keeping my IBS symptoms under control.”

A Holistic Wellness Approach

Hope explained how Simone’s wellness programme provided a comprehensive approach to improving her overall health:

“Simone’s plan gave me all the guidance I needed to tackle my concerns in one place, instead of having to try lots of different solutions. It wasn’t just about supplements—it was about learning how to support my body holistically. If I had to recommend just one thing from the plan, it would be the probiotic advice, as it’s been life-changing for my IBS and digestion.”
