Ep. 113 The Science of Bee Venom Therapy with Kate Hinkens

This week I sat down with Kate Hinkens, founder of The Sting Lab, which is a center for bee venom therapy and research and Kate is an expert in the bee venom therapy field. In the episode, Kate shares her story of a debilitating and mysterious illness as a child, again in teen years and again after graduating college and working as a professional. She was finally diagnosed with late, chronic stage Lyme in 2019. Despite pursuing intensive treatments, both western and alternative, Kate’s health continued to deteriorate. She went from being a successful college student and professional to dealing with memory impairment, extreme fatigue, constant pain, difficulty walking, and an inability to work. When Kate first heard about bee venom therapy, she thought it sounded far-fetched, even though she had spent years in the alternative and allopathic healthcare world attempting to heal Lyme. After extensive research, Kate discovered bee venom therapy's valid medicinal properties and potentials for not only Lyme disease, but also several types of cancers, Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, IBS, EBV and other autoimmune and inflammatory illnesses. In the episode Kate shares about the science behind bee venom therapy and why it works, and Gwen shares how working with Kate and bee venom has helped her immensely with just three months of treatment. Kate also shares what happened in her life after one year of bee venom therapy.
