I had scaly, red eczema blotches on my elbows, hips, and even behind my ears. For most of my life, I never had this issue. The rashes were driving me crazy — like not being able to sleep because of all of the itching!! I got really frustrated with doctors because they just totally shrugged it offer — it’ll “go away,” or just use a creme and get used to it.
So I tuned into Jennifer’s Eczema & Psoriasis Awareness Week and then scheduled a private call with her after tuning in so that I could make sure I was getting the best direction. I was tired of wasting time (and not to mention all the money on creams that didn’t work).
The personalized direction that I learned from Jennifer and her event gave me the missing pieces to *finally* getting my eczema to stop. It wasn’t overnight as Jennifer clearly explained, but she helped me see that my eczema wasn’t really a skin issue. There was a connection to an imbalance in my gut that she helped me figure out a plan to work on.
And finally, I can say… NO MORE ITCHING! THANK YOU, Jen!! You saved my skin and my sanity.

Hi Jennifer, your sessions on Eczema and Psoriasis were awesome! I have eczema all over my face, starting on my neck, arms and in my hair that’s been ongoing for 2yrs now. I am elated that my face has stopped oozing. I look 150 years old. All scaley and sucked dry. Just knowing why and looking for triggers has helped major! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Still lots to learn and do. Thank you for all your insight, knowledge, know-how, and for sharing your experience.

Hi Jennifer,
Just want to write to say “Thank you!!”. Thank you for everything you do! Because of you, and your recommendation to take Megaspore, my hand eczema is almost gone! I started taking it in October when my eczema got wildly out of control (blisters all over, weeping, cracking, bleeding, flaking). After taking it for about a month, my hands stop flaring so much and the skin actually started to heal. Now, I am only dealing with a couple of dry skin patches on my right hand. So grateful for you! Can’t wait to listen to the new podcast.

I ended up with awful, red yeasty rashes on my body that my dermatologist just didn’t have a clear answer on how to resolve. The antifungal creams would work for a bit, but then the rashes would come back. I was so embarrassed about them because it was to a point where I couldn’t really hide them anymore even with makeup or clothing. Plus I was exhausted all of the time and had what doctors called “stress-related symptoms” that were strange, but to them didn’t seem connected.
So I reached out to Jennifer and I’m really glad that I did because the rashes are FINALLY gone. My skin is clear and even the redness that wouldn’t go away in my face has dissipated. She determined that the yeast issues I’d suffered with for at least a decade were really at the root of my skin problems and that I was pretty depleted of key nutrients that my body needed to work at its best. Though it initially all seemed overwhelming, Jen made it really clear what we needed to focus on first and created a special plan for me so that I didn’t need to do any research. I just needed to follow her directions!
Aside from the rashes, I now have way more energy (than I’ve had in years!), my digestion is straightened out and I’m just feeling so much better overall.
One of the biggest pluses is that she prioritized making the plan and what I would need to do manageable for my very busy life. Nothing was difficult and she never asked me to do or eat anything weird! In fact, I love that she was able to help me resolve my symptoms without resorting to a restrictive elimination diet.
And I have to share that Jen opened my eyes about what I needed to do to take my health into my own hands. She asks questions that literally no doctor has ever asked me (that helped us figure out this puzzle), guided me to the proper tests, coached me to ask the right questions of my doctor, and calmed my fears about what we might find. She was clear and to the point and very specific in her recommendations. There was no gray area – I did what she told me to and I started to feel better.
I’m so grateful to you, Jen! Thank you for connecting the dots and digging deeper so that I can finally feel like my old self again!

I had been diagnosed with Celiac Disease in 2000 and continued to have stomach aches, diarrhea and itchy, dry eczema rashes on my fingers along with excessive anxiety, panic and brain fog. I found Jennifer online and began working privately with her in October 2017.
Thanks to Jennifer’s help, my skin rashes have finally cleared up and my digestion is better than I’ve ever had in my entire life. And I have been able to get off of my last anxiety medication and feel like having a happier outlook is my biggest WIN!!
In case you’re wondering, I would like to encourage anyone looking to figure out the deeper issues to work with Jennifer. She listened to me and is such an encouraging, dedicated person. She has spent hours reviewing my labs, came up with a plan that I could follow and helped guide me through it every step of the way. And I’m so appreciative to have her in my corner.

For the better part of 25 years, I’ve was frustrated and embarrassed by awful dandruff (seborrheic dermatitis). Dark clothes were the bane of my existence because within an hour I’d look like I was covered in snow. My hairline would become a frightful reddish pink with huge thick flakes peeling away from my scalp. I tried all sorts of shampoos and “natural remedies”, but nothing worked. Not even anything my doctors tried.
As a last ditch effort of hope, I began working with Jennifer. I loved her practicalness and energy because it gave me hope and she made it very clear that I had a partner to help me which meant a lot.
I have to be honest… at first, I was skeptical of her plan. She determined from testing and our long visits that my gut and liver were out of balance. I’d never heard this before and it seemed like a leap. But I followed her directions and I saw my flare-ups and flakes get less and less. Today, I am 98% clear and flare-free, and no longer need any special dandruff shampoos.
For the first time, I can wear something dark and not worry or panic. I just can’t even begin to express my gratitude for all of your hard work, Jen. I wish I’d found you sooner.

Before I began working with Jennifer I had made quite a few dietary changes including becoming vegan and going gluten free. I had a lot of positive outcomes due to these changes, but still wrestled with abdominal pain, gas, brain fog, bloating and the inability to lose those last 10 pounds despite being diet compliant.
After going to several traditional medical doctors, and receiving no help getting to the root cause of my problems to find the resolution to my symptoms, I often felt like I was going to have to spend the rest of my life living like that.
Working with Jennifer helped me discover through testing that I had significant yeast overgrowth and certain foods to which I am sensitive.
After following her plan, I am rarely bothered with gas and bloating now. My brain fog is gone and I lost the stubborn 10 lbs that wouldn’t budge along with inches from my waist and hips. I have healed my leaky gut and my abdomen is not distended anymore.
My biggest win is that my belly that literally hurt for years, rarely bothers me anymore!
Jennifer is very comprehensive in her approach to working with you. She is sensitive, understanding, very knowledgeable, and explains issues like your test results and your healing protocol very thoroughly answering your questions in plain English.
Jennifer is able to guide you through your plan of action to eradicate your symptoms. She really was a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her.

I decided to work with Jennifer Fugo in an effort to help me with many different food issues. I wanted help to see what was causing me problems and someone to hold me accountable for following through with what I needed to do.
I had been unable to lose weight and the rash on my hands was so bad I was unable to wear my rings for over 2 years.
Jennifer and I were together able to see foods which were definitely causing me discomfort. We specifically were able to pinpoint foods I needed to avoid. As she observed my food intake and reactions, Jennifer was able to see a pattern that I was unaware was even a condition underlying many of my symptoms!
In just 2 months of working with Jennifer, I lost 11 pounds of inflammation by identifying and removing gut triggers.
As for my hands, I wanted relief from the itching and swelling that comes along with this annoying rash. I’m happy to report that my rash is much more under control and my hands are not nearly as swollen. Thank you again, Jennifer, for ALL you did in getting me started on a healthier path!

My son, Luke, has had behavioral problems, food sensitivities and various rashes from his scalp to his feet for more than 7 years. He has been taken to a variety of professionals, from pediatricians to dermatologists to neurologists to psychiatrists to holistic and functional medicine doctors. I also researched quite extensively myself and implemented various treatments and diet changes with minimal improvement. In September 2018, I heard about Jennifer through the Eczema and Psoriasis Week Event. I contacted her and we began working together to get to the bottom of Luke’s chronic problems.
After thoroughly reviewing Luke’s most recent labwork, Jennifer pointed out severe problems with Luke’s gut (dysbiosis) as the likely underlying cause of his conditions. She came up with a personalized plan to rebalance his gut first, which has already led to dramatic improvements in his behavior, anxiety, and the appearance of his rashes. She also has made several topical suggestions which have further helped his skin to improve. My husband and I cannot thank Jennifer (and Jennifer) enough for their guidance as we continue to walk through this healing journey with our son.
