Your Journey Begins
Destination: Health and Healing
So, where do you start? First, understand that your story and health history are personal and your nutritional needs are too! Have you ever wondered why one person responds to a certain type of diet (Keto, Paleo, Gluten-free, FODMAP, etc.) while someone else doesn’t experience the same remarkable results while following that diet to a tee? Or why they might even have an adverse effect (weight gain, stomach problems, increased cholesterol, etc.) from a particular food plan?
Digging Deep to Uncover Root Causes
Many factors, in addition to diet, are at play, including genetics, digestive function, toxic exposures, infections, lifestyle factors, stress, and more. These root causes need to be teased out in order to better understand your body’s needs. And that’s what I love doing, digging deep, as your nutritional detective, to find the root causes of your health issues and support your healing.
Personalized Online Nutrition Consultation
We begin with a thorough nutrition assessment. I want to learn about you and your current goals: Do you want to resolve a health condition? Strengthen your immune system? Optimize your gut and brain health? Evaluate your nutritional status?
Once I know more about you, I develop a personalized nutrition care plan tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle. This may entail specialty tests including:
Comprehensive digestive stool analysis
Complete nutritional profile (vitamins, minerals, organic acids, etc.)
Food allergy and food sensitivity testing
Other nutritional labs and biomarkers depending on your concerns
Nutrigenetic Testing
I specialize in Nutrigenomics and often use Nutrigenetic testing to create a personalized nutrition plan based on your unique genetic blueprint.
Nutrigenetic tests analyze DNA variants related to important aspects of metabolism such as fat accumulation and increased BMI (Body Mass Index), appetite regulation, the metabolism of certain vitamins, and other variants important for the development of a personalized diet, as well as those variants associated with food intolerances or allergies.
I have found this to be an invaluable tool for chronic disease prevention and therapeutic nutrition. Does this all sound good? Great, let’s work together.
