In high school, her life was derailed by postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS), Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS). She went from being a highly competitive athlete to completely bedridden.

After years of suffering, she began to eat a healthy plant-based diet and began to heal. The results were far more than she could have hoped for as her life returned to normal while her crippling symptoms vanished.

She has devoted her life to helping others and opened Rooted3, a plant-based restaurant in Bethesda, Md., that serves the same foods that helped her body heal.

Molly shares her never give up attitude and journey back to health with “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room podcast.

Topics Discussed

  • How a plant-based diet helped POTS, EDS, and MCAS
  • Living with chronic illnesses
  • Importance of positive outlook
  • And more
