Esther from Ontario shares her powerful story of confronting shingles that threatened her eyesight and left her fearing blindness. When prescribed antivirals and eye drops did not restore her vision, she sought additional answers through holistic approaches. Meeting with a naturopath, she was encouraged to strengthen her body with nutrient-dense food, vitamins, and lifestyle changes. Over time, her health stabilized, her energy improved, and she regained hope.

In this interview, Esther describes the emotional journey of facing a sudden health crisis, the limits of conventional options she encountered, and how natural approaches gave her renewed resilience. She emphasizes the importance of choice—whether through food, vitamins, or other holistic supports—and reflects on how Canadians need freedom to explore safe, natural alternatives when conventional medicine alone does not provide solutions. Her message to Ottawa is clear: government must not restrict access to natural health products, because for people like her, they are life-changing.
