Nutrient Deficiencies
I use a number of tools to uncover deficiencies: a 3-to-5 day food journal, a confidential client history interview, the Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire and, finally, the Functional Analysis which allows me to tap into the innate intelligence of your own body to uncover dis-functions and deficiencies. I fully embrace the pioneering research of Dr. Weston A. Price and his work on foods that protect the body from disease.
Digestive Problems
Healthy digestion is fundamental to all the work we will do together. If your digestive system isn’t functioning properly, you can eat a nutritional-dense, whole food diet and take the finest supplements and you won’t absorb the appropriate nutrients from either. Your body is crying out for nutrients but because of imbalances they are unavailable. Working with the FOUNDATIONS will allow us to support your digestion and get you on the path to vitality, health and balance.
Hormone Health
I respect the endocrine individuality of each client. The right foods will help your system produce hormones that deliver the right messages throughout the body. Your endocrine organs — especially the thyroid — are extremely sensitive to stress and toxins, such as heavy metals, drugs, food allergies and nutritional imbalances. In our work together we will remove the stressors as much as possible and strengthen the defenses. We do this by focusing on the FOUNDATIONS of good digestion, blood sugar and minerals.
Weight Management
Weight gain is a SYMPTOM of poor health. It is an outward image of inward imbalances within the body. I will help you manage your weight by helping you build good health through proper nutrition. We will do this together by supporting your body's FOUNDATIONS of digestion, blood
Blood Sugar Handling
Never before in our history have we had an emergency need to lower blood sugar. Now, with the large amounts of refined carbs/sugars Americans ingest we are inundating our bodies. Sugar is as addictive as any drug and it’s everywhere – often hidden behind confusing labels. The result? Insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity, glycation, hypo-glycemia, fatigue … the list goes on. Nutritional therapy will help you pinpoint your problem areas and break free of the damaging effects of so much sugar in our diets.
