Functional Nutrition
Functional nutrition is a personalized and evidence-based approach to nutrition that focuses on optimizing health and addressing underlying imbalances in the body. Our Nutritionists work with individuals to identify and address the root causes of health concerns such as digestive, immune, hormonal, and neurological systems. They take into account factors like genetics, lifestyle, environment, and personal history to develop tailored nutrition plans. These plans are designed to support the body's natural healing processes, promote optimal functioning, and restore balance.
The benefits of functional nutrition for people can be significant:
1. Improved Nutritional Status: Functional nutrition aims to provide individuals with the right balance of nutrients needed for optimal health, ensuring they are meeting their unique nutritional requirements.
2. Targeted Health Support: By identifying and addressing underlying imbalances or deficiencies, functional nutrition can support specific health concerns such as digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, inflammation, and autoimmune conditions.
3. Enhanced Energy and Vitality: A personalized nutrition plan can help optimize energy levels, improve sleep quality, and enhance overall well-being, leading to increased vitality and improved quality of life
5. Gut Health and Digestion: Functional nutrition emphasizes the importance of gut health and its impact on overall well-being. By optimizing digestion and promoting a healthy gut microbiome, it can improve digestive symptoms, enhance nutrient absorption, and support immune function
6. Disease Prevention: Functional nutrition focuses on identifying and addressing underlying factors that contribute to the development of chronic diseases. By promoting overall health and addressing potential imbalances, it may help reduce the risk of future health issues.
7. Personalized Approach: Functional nutrition recognizes that each individual is unique and has different nutritional needs. By tailoring recommendations to the individual, it can provide a more effective and personalized approach to improving health.
Overall, functional nutrition aims to empower individuals to take charge of their health, make informed dietary choices, and support their body's natural healing abilities to achieve optimal wellness. It is important to consult with a qualified and experienced functional nutritionist for personalized guidance and support.
Our Practitioners:
About 11 years ago, I began to experience a strange myriad of digestive issues and muscle spasms. I was soon diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Irritable Bowel Disease. Over the next few years, I saw over 30 doctors, a process that cost me thousands in medical debt with no major change in symptoms. Then in 2017, I decided to take my health into my own hands through Functional Diagnostic Nutrition’s training program. Alongside FDN, I pursued a rigorous study of Ayurveda, an ancestral form of healing that holds so many keys to wellness.
Through the Combination of Functional Medicine and Ayurveda, I noticed dramatic improvements in my digestion and energy, in a matter of weeks. Today, my mission is to share my unique approach to empower those that are suffering and like me are unsatisfied with conventional medicine.
