I’m Kerri Knox, founder of The Total Immune System Makeover
Welcome to Easy Immune System Health. I'm Kerri Knox and I’m dedicated to helping you overcome your challenges with chronic illness.
I began working as a Licensed Practical Nurse in 1994 and went on to receive my Registered Nursing License in 1996 and have been actively working in Emergency Rooms and Intensive Care Units ever since. That's over a decade of caring for people with chronic illnesses.
Now, as a Functional Medicine Practitioner, I do
Personal Consultations
by telephone to help solve your challenging health problems. Functional Medicine works to track down the most common problems that cause chronic illnesses. Unlike other 'alternative' therapies where you have to blindly trust that the practitioner is helping you, I use state of the art, in-home lab testing to find the underlying cause of your problems.
You can directly see what is wrong with you right there in black and white. Then I use the highest quality supplements, not available in health food stores, to custom tailor a nutritional, lifestyle and supplement program to suit your EXACT needs. If you have a chronic illness that has not responded to conventional treatment, you owe it to yourself to not suffer any longer. I can help! Every day, I find problems that have been overlooked by other practitioners including:
• Neurotransmitter Deficiencies • Adrenal Fatigue/Adrenal Exhaustion • Parasites like giardia • H-Pylori • Heavy Metal Toxicity • Leaky Gut Syndrome • Hormonal Imbalances • Candida Overgrowth
I design tailored lab testing, lifestyle and supplement programs that find and solve these problems and support your body to perform at its best. Don't suffer any longer with chronic problems. Get better now. I am currently taking clients at this time on a limited basis. My practice is run exclusively by telephone consultations so that I can work with anyone in the world.

How I got Interested in solving your health problems
I grew up in Southern California, near Disneyland, and became interested in Health and Wellness at the age of 12 (really!) when I talked my mother into signing me up at the local gym. I was determined to get stronger so that I could beat my teammate at the shot put. This wasn’t your average fitness facility, either; this was a hard-core bodybuilder’s gym! I never did beat Azucena Ruiz at the shot put, but at 15 years old, I won the California State Bench Press Championships! Along the way, I absorbed all the latest information on health, nutrition, supplementation and exercise. In High School, I took a program called 'Bio-Med' that was geared towards students going into the medical field. Being the daughter of a pharmacist, I was intimately familiar with western medical philosophy since birth so this was natural for me. Eventually, during college, nursing found me. I got interested in The Immune System after seeing so many people dealing with chronic health issues and never getting better. I also began dealing with my own health issues- chronic allergies, eczema, regular bouts of bronchitis and chronic knee pain. Doctors did little but give me medications. I began to be aware of how the medical community relies on drugs and their denial of the effectiveness of ANY alternative practices or herbs, despite years of effective usage and multiple studies in other countries and other cultures.
More Health Problems
Later I developed several yeast infections, a urinary tract infection, and an exam found a lump in my breast. Tests showed the lump was completely normal, but my doctor recommended a biopsy anyway! Cut open a perfectly healthy breast!? I refused. I didn’t even go to doctors for the other problems, sure that medication was not the long-term answer. I began researching and finding healthier and more effective methods that deal with the source of these problems rather than just the symptoms. Having found answers outside of western medicine, I began to try to heal myself. What I've found is that there are many 'alternative' methods of healing that actually work and that are based on solid scientific evidence. Thousands of studies show the effectiveness of vitamins, herbs, nutrition, sunlight, and exercise therapies that western doctors almost never use. Lab testing found that I had low level adrenal fatigue, H-pylori, a common parasite called Blastocystis Hominis and a candida overgrowth infection. All were able to be easily treated with dietary and lifestyle changes along with targeted nutritional supplements. Since then, my eczema and allergy symptoms have gone away, I’ve had no more yeast infections or urinary tract infections and my chronic knee pain has improved dramatically.
Sharing the knowledge
Since then, my clinical knowledge came together with my frustration over the prevalence of chronic illness, and I decided to start a website to teach people that there ARE alternatives to suffering with symptoms of chronic illness.Then I found
Site Build It
(the web hosting company that this site is built on) and it quickly became apparent that I could get an effective website out by myself that could teach people how to overcome their chronic illnesses, decrease their reliance on the medical system and gain back control of their lives! So both my fiance, Joshua Tucker, and I started leveraging our knowledge in order to be able to help more people. I have this site, and Joshua is helping people to overcome tendonitis-related issues without drugs or surgery with his site
The Tendonitis Expert.
Joshua and I are currently living a semi-nomadic lifestyle in San Francisco, California in our 40 foot RV. We love traveling and helping people overcome their health challenges.
