Yolanda Hadid has been battling chronic Lyme Disease since 2012. Though there is no known cure for the bacterial infection, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has tackled her diagnosis head-on.
“I have gone from the conventional long-term antibiotics to about every holistic protocol there is to offer,” says Hadid, who has also tried stem cell therapy, cryotherapy and Hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Hadid chronicles her mission on social media, sharing recently that the disease has erased her ability to read and write.
“It feels like someone came in and confiscated my brain and tied my hands behind my back,” Hadid explains. “But being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.”
