The Power Of
Functional Nutrition

Conventional nutritional wisdom is sadly behind the curve when it comes to cutting-edge nutritional science. Additionally, there is so much conflicting nutritional information out there! It’s no wonder that people are confused and sicker than ever. The key to turning food into medicine is to better understand your own unique physiology and how to support it with the right foods.

Functional Nutrition is one of the best ways to optimize your health and regain your energy. It is personalized nutrition for your body, at this time in your life, no matter what symptoms you may be experiencing!

As you may have experienced, diets never work the same for all people (or just don’t work at all) and there is good reason for this! We all are a unique blend of different genes, have different levels of stress and are exposed to different toxins in our environments. Top this off with any hormonal or gut-related imbalances you may be experiencing, and you have a very specific set of nutritional needs, nutritional deficiencies, and perhaps food sensitivities you are most likely unaware of.

Functional Nutrition goes deep into all these areas and has the strategies for finding the right combo of foods to make an optimized “food as medicine” plan.

We empower you with the knowledge and coaching so that you can implement them in your life and this is how we promote sustainable, longterm health among our clients.

• Functional Medicine Testing – This in-depth and more sophisticated form of lab testing allows us to see exactly which systems are out of balance and how food can be causing issues as well as which foods can help to promote balance. This form of testing is helpful when people are eating well, but they still don’t feel their best and can’t figure out why.
• A Focus on Gut Health, The Core of Your Immune System – Your gut health is ruled by helpful flora (your microbiome) and is key when it comes to good health. Food is one of the best ways to protect your gut health, feed protective gut flora or heal your gut if your are suffering from gut imbalances.
• Fine-tuning Food for Cellular Health –  Optimizing your cellular health is key to having great energy and improve hundreds of other biological functions throughout your body. Even people who eat healthy can be experiencing nutritional deficiencies and these can throw a wrench in your energy production as well as impact so many other functions downstream. With functional nutrition and testing we can make sure all the bases are covered and also examine areas where you may need some extra nutritional support.
