Why Nutrition?
Nutrition impacts every aspect of your life and every aspect of your life will impact your nutritional needs.
Nutrition in the mainstream is focused on select factors such as diet, weight loss, and GI dysfunction, however these are only a few of the many things nutrition plays a critical role in. Nutrition can also help support:
- Mental/Psychological health (depression, anxiety, ADHD, Autism, stress)
- Hormone Function (pre-diabetes/diabetes, PMOS/PCOS, PMDD, estrogen/testosterone)
- Immune function (allergies, autoimmune diseases, response to infections)
- GI Function (constipation/diarrhea, bloating, gas, digestion)
- Cardiovascular health (anemia, blood pressure, cholesterol, clotting dysfunction)
- Musculoskeletal (Sports perfomance, muscle development, osteopenia/perosis, joint health)
As your coach we will dive into the diversity of your life and create a plan that works best for you as an individual.
Specialties
General Nutrition
Functional Support of Acute & Chronic Conditions, Aging & Longevity
Working with me you’ll learn to support your body, and improve your energy, digestion, sleep, and ability to keep up with your everyday needs. With a focus on long term health, we also will take into account how we can improve your quality of life as you age through nutrition.
We will address underlying imbalances contributing to risk of disease development or those playing a role in exacerbating symptoms. Whether you’re looking for general support, disease prevention, or guidance through acute or chronic conditions, the goal is to help you make informed, supportive choices that strengthen your health both now and into the future.
Hormone & Reproductive Health
PMS/PMDD, Fertility, PMOS(PCOS), Perimenopause & Menopause
Hormones and Nutrition go hand in hand. The foods you eat influence hormone production, metabolism, and function and understanding these relationships is key to feeling your best.
My approach combines functional nutrition with evidence based care to help you understand why you may be experiencing certain symptoms and how to use nutrition and lifestyle to help. Together we’ll review your health history, symptoms, results, medications, and current nutrition to identify underlying contributors and optimize your body’s nutritional news. We’ll also discuss current research on supplement and herbal support when appropriate, helping you make sense of your options with confidence.
