I have struggled with digestive issues for as long as I can remember.  After falling in to pretty bad physical and mental health I made ALOT of lifestyle changes and began to see some long term symptoms begin to clear up.  A few years in, I still noticed daily inflammation around my mid-section as well as continued digestive issues and decided to reach out to Brendan.  He and I connected through social media and seeing how knowledgeable and caring he was with his clients working with him with a no-brainer. Brendan ran an OAT and the Mental M.A.P.™️, and discovered an underlying population of mold, which was likely the culprit of my life long digestive issues.  He started me on some daily supplements and after only a few weeks my digestion is unlike I’ve ever known it and dare I say it had returned to what might be even referred to as “normal” daily functioning.  Hurray! Brendan unlike many other practitioners truly listened to my symptoms acknowledging that there was definitely a continued cause for my struggles, unlike many who had previous dismissed these symptoms.  Feeling heard goes a long way for many of us who have been struggling and know something is off. Brendan is an all around awesome human.  He’s extremely kind and attentive on top of being one of the most (if not the most) knowledgeable practitioners I’ve come across. I recommend Brendan to anyone and everyone who needs clarity on their health. I am beyond thrilled with our work together and my renewed health!

I had been experiencing irregular menstrual  cycles, intense PMS and mood swings for a few years trying to “fix” myself. After just one consultation with Brendan, he noticed some physical symptoms my body was presenting, we discussed current symptoms and he was very confident that we could normalize my hormonal irregularities. Within one month of working together my symptoms have significantly decreased. I had no discomfort leading up to my monthly cycle, it showed up in exactly 29 days, and my mood was significantly more stable than the months prior. I am so thankful for Brendan’s empathy, knowledge, and confidence. This is only one month into my journey and I’m excited to see even more results as we move forward.

Working with Brendan and his staff has been a great experience. When I first came to Brendan my biggest issue was chronic fatigue. Multiple times a day I would have to stop to take naps in between working because I was so exhausted. It was really affecting my quality of life. Also, I was struggling with seasonal depression and daily anxiety. Let’s just say I was not living my best life! So, I started working with Brendan and he ran a few tests and found that one of the culprits was mold in my home and in my diet. He suggested remediating the mold in my home but I was hesitant due to the cost of remediation. I finally had a mold remediation specialist come out to assess the issue and the kind of mold he identified was the exact same mold Brendan said I was having issues with (well, one of them, the other mold was food-related). Needless to say, Brendan knew what he was talking about! I had the mold remediated and my basement waterproofed. Brendan also helped me to go gluten and corn free, as well as making other dietary changes. He also suggested supplements to support my healing process. I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER! No more anxiety, no more depression, and no more fatigue. This was the first winter EVER in my life that I did not have seasonal depression and that is such a huge deal and I could not have done any of this without the support given by Brendan and his staff. Brendan is an expert in his field and I admire his dedication to helping people improve their health. I am so thankful to Metabolic Solutions for helping convince me to make the changes I needed to live a healthier life!

I was so tired of feeling so horrible. Not only did I feel horrible on the inside, but you could tell from the outside. I had gained weight, I was always bloated, I felt so sick, was low energy and my hormones were all over the place. I had seen doctors, had my gallbladder removed, had everyone and their moms' just label me with “IBS.” I was honestly at whits end and was desperate. I did OAT 4 times, Mycotox 1x, Mental M.A.P.™️ 4x and hormone testing. I could not write enough about how much I learned from Brendan. I have always been a ‘healthy’ active and disciplined person. I learned that my IBS is not that. It was a serious mold overgrowth and bacteria overgrowth issue that had been going on for a long time and had affected almost everything in my body honestly.

Let me tell you - YOUR HEALTH IS WORTH IT. It may take time and discipline but seriously its so worth it, I never ever thought I could feel as good as I do and look as good as I do now. I have abs that I haven’t had since I was 18 and doing body building competitions and crash dieting. Something that I learned from Brendan was to be patient and how to listen to my body and do what feels good. Brendan cares about people and loves what he does and it’s obvious. And he’s in it to genuinely make a difference and help people. I wish everyone would see Brendan!! He is also incredibly wise and intelligent- he knows what he is talking about. I really think everyone should go see him. And Brendan WANTS you to succeed and he’s going to do everything he can to help you.

These pictures are 5 years apart. So many people want fast results. Please be patient. Fall in love with the process and make little tweaks and you’ll find your results will begin to snowball! In the first picture you see a man at war with his own ego. It’s a losing battle. My ego got me in a place where I thought I was fine but it turns out I ended up with two hernias and fat enveloping my organs. I was on the way to a heart attack in my early 40’s.

I started my holistic journey on my own at that point with no guidance and was faced with some really dark and lonely places—all driven by my own ego. At this point I found that diet and exercise were a VERY SMALL part of my progress. My inner dialogue and view of myself played a huge part in how I look and act. I learned how to love that little boy inside and take care of him.

I reached out to Brendan Dean Vermeire as I had come to a point where I didn’t know where to go. I had anxiety so bad that I was shaking in my own skin in a Home Depot parking lot for no reason. Thanks to his guidance and this tribe, I learned how to take care of my first brain—my gut, along with a protocol that truly fit me. The results speak for themselves.

As I look back I really see how profound making little changes constantly are. Now what you see is an older man with a tamed ego. My inner dialogue is a loving one. This is an emotional deal for me because this is all internally driven and it’s a big deal to push through dark places.

You will get where you need to be. Just don’t quit. My results have taken half a decade and it was PAINFUL emotionally and physically. You will get better I promise!

Before I reached out to Brendan + the Metabolic Rehab Program I felt hopeless and was desperate to find answers to get my physical health and mental wellness back on track. I had spent most of my adult life prioritizing my physical and mental health; despite that, as I approached my 40th birthday, I found myself frustrated and at a dead end. I had exhausted all of my resources and needed help outside of myself to get back to the baseline level lifestyle I once had enjoyed. I know the work is done in the day-to-day grind of our daily habits but I also know there are sometimes underlying issues that I am not able to assess myself. Brendan identified root cause issues that were causing my problematic symptoms as well as held me accountable to those imperative day to day lifestyle habits that have led me back to the physical health and mental wellness that I previously enjoyed. I am so grateful for their work with me: holding me accountable to myself, being flexible with my personality and lifestyle and focusing on root causes. My time and growth with them has been invaluable.
