About Amy
Do you want to live agelessly with full vitality?
Your doctor told you to make lifestyle changes, or else you may be on medications for the rest of your life. Since chronic diseases are progressive, things can only get worse if you don’t do something. You are scared, and you hope there is a way to reverse this because you want to enjoy life to the fullest.
You are at the right place!
Hello! I’m Amy Ku. I totally understand what you are going through because I’ve been there myself.
My mission is to help you get healthy so you can live with longer health span and not be burdened by chronic diseases.
My story
We don’t choose to have hypertension, diabetes, or a heart attack. I certainly didn’t. Yet my own heart health issue lead me here.6 years ago I had what I thought was an abdominal pain the week before my 8th half-marathon. The ER doctor, however, told me I had a heart attack. Those words felt like a whack to the head. Clearly, fitness does not equal health.
I was told that I would be on medication for the rest of my life, and no guarantee that I will continue to run. I asked why this happened even though I was very fit? There were no answers except “well, you are just getting old”. I had just turned 50.
Then I found Anti-Aging and Functional Medicine!
My own research lead me to anti-aging and functional medicine at the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M) and Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), where practitioners are taught to dig deep for the root cause. This resonated with me and I dove in and started taking all the courses available.
A year later, I was off my medication, and I started pole walking. 3 years later, I started jogging. By December 2019, my stress test came back with no abnormalities. Even my cardiologist asked what I’ve been doing for myself.
Now I want to share with you my knowledge from studying and personal experiences, so you too can gain control of your own biology and live with vitality.
I am a Registered Pharmacist with over 30 years of experience. Currently a health coach, I focus on helping you to live a healthier and more energetic life.
Life doesn’t have to be a downward spiral. If you have “age-related chronic disease” and you are motivated to gain better control of your own biology to regain your vitality, let’s talk.
Aside from my role as a pharmacist and health coach, I am also a distributor for BEMER, a Health Canada approved Class II medical device to improve blood circulation.
And no matter how busy I get, I always make sure to schedule time with my family and my two fur babies.
