I’m Dr. Ann Shippy, and I understand what you’re going through. My personal experiences healing from undiagnosed celiac disease, autoimmune disorders, severe adult onset asthma, and mold toxicity have all been worthwhile steps in helping me to practice medicine the way I dreamed of doing. I know how it feels when illness puts your life on hold.
While working as a chemical engineer and manager at IBM, I got really sick coming home from a vacation– which was the first of four major health crises. Despite the efforts of traditional medicine, no one could find the cause of my problems.
One morning, after a long quest with various health practitioners and my own research figuring out how to heal myself, I woke up suddenly at 4 am with a clear decision…
Now, over a decade later, after earning my medical degree and becoming board certified in Internal Medicine and certified in Functional Medicine, I love caring for my patients here in my clinic in Austin, Texas.
And when people can’t get appointments right away because of my waiting list, it’s frustrating to disappoint people who are seeking answers about their health. You just want to feel better and get your life back…
This compelled and inspired me to find a way to help more people, so I created the Every Life Well® Cleanse Intensive Program!
This isn’t like the fad cleanse diets you see out there right now.
This is a safe, science-based approach to detoxifying and fortifying your body. Fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and many chronic illnesses are often caused by a buildup of toxins from environmental sources and lifestyle factors.
However, when you remove toxins and reset your body you may lose weight much more easily.
But more importantly you will be giving your body the support it needs to increase your energy and heal naturally.
A dedicated 6 weeks together to do a detoxifying Cleanse Intensive and guide you through “what to do” and “what to eat” and why. (Two weeks of preparation, and four weeks of the cleanse program itself)
No Comparison: I can confidently say that this really is the best thing out there. No other cleanse program or fasting protocol is this comprehensive.
Most Thorough: There’s a reason I named the program the Cleanse “Intensive.” It is a much longer duration than a short fasting cleanse, but– it’s not just the time we’re spending together, it’s the value of what it does for your body. Fasting alone is not enough. It’s a great reset– but this cleanse does more.
You can’t just pour celery juice on top of your problem or skip a few breakfasts and get the results you can get with the Every Life Well® Cleanse Intensive.
This program augments your own detox pathways vs. just relying on the benefits of fasting. Among other things, the supplements provide the nutrients you need to repair and rebuild cell membranes and mitochondria, meaning that your liver, gallbladder and kidneys are supported, amplifying every aspect of detoxification. This support gives your body the tools to repair itself—fortifying your own body’s natural resilience.
Great Value: The Every Life Well® Cleanse Intensive is my solution to be able to help more people who are not able to become a patient in my clinic.
The doctor-patient relationship is a sacred and special one, especially the way I prefer to practice medicine. I spend a great deal of time listening to my patients, asking questions other doctors don’t ask… and my goal is to help patients address the root cause of their illnesses.
I’m taking everything I’m learning from patients in the office and applying it to this program, and you will benefit from this collective learning. I am often the “doctor of last resort” for the sickest of the sick, and I also see the most motivated high-performers who want to be the healthiest possible.
Just the initial new patient visit alone in my clinic is almost twice the cost of this program, and when patients begin treatment at my clinic, they also typically invest in lab tests and supplements in addition to the new patient fee.
To provide this affordable 6-week option, I’ve carefully formulated this supplement selection, and bought individually, these supplements cost over $600.
Access to Help You: Even though cleanse participants are not patients, I am personally here for Q&A and teaching each week in this program. I’ve built our own private app to provide accountability and support throughout the six weeks we have together.

• Family-and-friend training module to help others understand and support you during your cleanse

You could do a quick juice cleanse and get some temporary results…
You could do intermittent fasting for a few days and get some good benefits…
You could guess which supplements to use and spend more time looking around on the internet for pieces of the puzzle and become overwhelmed with conflicting information.
Or… you could join me for six weeks and completely change the trajectory of your health, for good—starting this new decade with the best possible odds for vitality to actually Get Better With Age.™
However, for all of those circumstances, it may be very beneficial to do this cleanse program AFTER your situation has changed. (And if you are planning a pregnancy soon, this program would be a tremendous advantage!)
If you’ve been around the health and wellness space for a while, then I’m almost certain you’ve heard the term “intermittent fasting.”⠀
But, you likely haven’t heard about fasting mimicking. ⠀
And what in the world is the difference between IF and fasting mimicking?!👇
The fasting mimicking diet is a 5-day mimicked fast where you follow a plant-based and calorie- restricted diet. This diet allows you to eat whole foods, while the body transitions into a fasting state.
With this approach, it is much easier, and safer, to comply with a mimicked fast than to water fast, (where you literally only consume water).⠀
What are some of the benefits associated with FM?⠀
Benefits such as a supported immune system, decrease in inflammation, improved energy metabolism, improved sleep, and improved memory are just a few of the many benefits that are found when you follow the fasting mimicking diet. ⠀
Intermittent fasting, on the other hand, is a 16 hour period of time where you go without food. Most people who practice IF typically stop eating after dinner and then eat a late breakfast or early lunch the following day. IF allows the body to detox naturally, decreases inflammation, supports a healthy metabolism, etc.⠀
Both have a long list of benefits, it all depends on what works best for YOUR body and immune system.⠀
If you’re familiar with IF but new to the fasting mimicking world, then click the link in my bio to read more about what the diet entails and if it could be an option for you.⠀

Fungal infections are more common than you think. Especially during hot summer temperatures. ⠀
⠀
They can affect anyone, and can appear on feet, arms, stomach, under arms, anywhere sweat is persistent.⠀
⠀
Different types of fungi can cause fungal infections. In some cases, fungi that aren’t typically found on or inside your body can colonize it and cause an infection. ⠀
⠀
In other cases, fungi that are normally present on or inside your body can multiply out of control and cause an infection.⠀
⠀
For those of you who may not be familiar…. Fungi, like aspergillus, can be extremely dangerous and lead to life-threatening diseases.⠀
They reproduce by releasing spores that can be picked up by direct contact or even inhaled. That’s why fungal infections are most likely to affect your skin, nails, or lungs. ⠀
Some common types of fungal infection include:⠀
• Athlete’s foot⠀
• Jock itch⠀
• Ringworm⠀
• Yeast infection⠀
A few ways you can avoid fungal infection is by:⠀
• Keeping your skin clean⠀
• Avoid using other people’s towels or products⠀
• Use products that are free of toxins.⠀
• Wear shoes at community pools, locker rooms, hotel rooms, etc.⠀
Have you ever experienced a fungal infection? If so, which one?

In order for you to TRULY OPTIMIZE your health and overall longevity, unlocking your gene’s potential is a MUST: ⠀
What in the world does that mean?⠀
This means every choice we make throughout the day can influence chemical modifications around our genes to either move towards a healthy state or a less healthy one. Understanding how each decision may affect your genes is the basis to unlock your genes potential.⠀
There are 3 simple steps you can take to start today 👇⠀
🔓 Relax and dedicate time to selfcare:
Employ tactics to reduce stress: Meditate for 12 minutes a day, get 7-9 hours of sleep, exercise for at least 20 minutes a day, dedicate time to self-care, and do one thing for yourself and your overall well being every day. By following these steps you allow your body to destress from work and your daily life, which is an important element when it comes to your health...especially mental health.⠀
🔓 Eliminate toxins and address diet:⠀
Become more aware of air quality, eat vegetables and high quality food, and detox your body from the wrong foods. Everything in your body is connected...internally and externally. Therefore, when you start eating high-quality food, vegetables, and eliminate the wrong foods you slowly start to transition towards a healthy state.
🔓Take time to enjoy the little things:⠀
Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. Once you begin to take time to enjoy the little things you open up the opportunity to focus the mental aspect of your health. How can you be truly healthy if you haven’t focused on the balance of both mental and physical health?⠀

Achieving healthy skin is easier than you think 🙏🏼⠀
If you struggle with acne, signs of aging, rosacea, or any other skin condition, finding the root cause starts by looking past the surface level (what appears externally)....and focusing on what’s going on INTERNALLY instead.⠀
After all, every organ system in your body is connected, and your dermis is no exception. ⠀
Your skin is a reflection of your own internal health. Made up of three layers: epidermis, dermis, and subcutis, it is the largest organ and the most protective barrier from the outside world.⠀
A question I get asked often is…”how do I improve my skin health?”⠀
Here’s how to get started:⠀
1. Support the Microbiome: Just like your gut, your skin’s microbiome is an ecosystem of bacteria, yeast, fungi, and viruses. Whether it is food sensitivities, leaky gut, or an infection, learning to balance the microbiome is important for your skin health.⠀
2. Heal your gut: By utilizing the 5R approach for gut healing. Remove, Replace, Repair, Reinoculate and Rebalance are simple steps and customizable. (Link in bio) ⠀
3. Use cosmetics free of toxins: Throwing out old products and switching to non-toxic products on your next purchase is a great way to prevent the amount of toxin exposure your skin absorbs throughout the day. ⠀
4. Support skin detoxification: Detoxification is important when facing skin issues. Using saunas, dry brushing, body work, and detox baths are all simple and effective steps in supporting your skin detox. ⠀
These are just a few of the many easy and effective steps for vibrant, youthful, and glowing skin.⠀
Do you struggle with skin issues? If so, I’d love to hear about your experience below.⠀

The health of your gut is the root to everything 💡⠀
When your gut microbiome is unbalanced, it can affect:⠀
⚠️ Your brain health⠀
⚠️ Inflammation⠀
⚠️ Immunity⠀
⚠️ Hormones⠀
⚠️ Detoxification and total body wellness ⠀
…... and let's be honest, sometimes your decision making. ⠀
Healing your gut is the only way to truly look- and most importantly, FEEL your best.⠀
You can start healing yours by following the 5R’s: Remove, Replace, Repair, Reinoculate and Rebalance in an effort to restore balance to your microbiome and address any imbalances that may be causing you to suffer.⠀
