Where Do I Start?

Gut Check

Re+Mind Your Gut

For those with minor health issues looking to coach up their adaptive physiology and optimize their health, this program is an introduction to functional health principles and practices designed to get you started on the path to living better, looking better, and feeling better.

 

The Vitality Project

My comprehensive health program is where you learn how to implement practical solutions and strategies for optimizing your health while also teaching you how to properly care for your body, mind, and spirit so you can live, work, and play the way a modern human should.

A data-driven, information-gathering, deep dive into your personal health history and functional lab results to start uncovering hidden healing opportunities so we can start creating a plan to restore function, balance, and ease in the body. This program is the precursor to “The Vitality Project”.

 

It’s not you…it’s your environment.

The human body is born with a supreme intelligence that always moves it towards good health - provided the proper conditions are present. This is what we call "homeostasis," or our natural state of balance.

For millions of years, humans and their ancestors lived in sync with the cycles and laws of nature in a habitat starkly different from the one we're currently in. But now, our modern environments are changing more rapidly than what our biology can adapt to, and this keeps us in a chronically stressed-out state of “fight or flight” and dis-ease.

However, our bodies can only be in either “survival mode” or “healing mode” - but never both at the same time. This is why chronic stress is often considered to be the root cause of chronic dis-ease.

95% of all chronic dis-ease is environment-related…

…the other 5% is either due to inborn error or acute trauma.

This is because your body is designed to monitor the environment it finds itself in at all times and respond accordingly via chemical modifications that influence how your cells read your genes.

This means that your environment (which includes: lifestyle, diet, sleep habits, thoughts, relationships, circadian rhythms, light exposure, EMF exposures, body movements, etc.) controls the switches that turn your genes “on” and “off”.

This is called "epigenetics, and it’s a dynamic, life-long process that’s reversible - provided the environment you’re in gives it the signal to reverse.

This is important to know because it empowers you with the ability to become “the creator of optimal health".

You see, the problems we face today aren't actually the diseases themselves; they're the chronically stressed lifestyles we create, the toxic environments we live in, the nutrient-poor foods we eat, the negative self-talk chattering in our heads, our dysfunctional relationships, and the bad habits we develop around all of it -which ultimately lead to the manifestation of symptoms and the diseases that follow.

A (r)evolutionary solution…

Just like hitting the “snooze” button on an alarm clock only prolongs the amount of time which you stay asleep rather than actually stopping time from continuing to pass, today’s symptom-management model of chronic disease care doesn’t actually cure chronic dis-ease…

…it prolongs it.

My work as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner helps identify and correct imbalances and dysfunctions using (r)evolutionary, bio+logical strategies designed to mitigate stressors, restore balance, and engage those self-healing mechanisms so that your body, mind, and spirit can return to a state of ease and thrive in our fast-paced modern world.

¡Viva la (r)evolution!

The problem with the conventional model of disease and symptoms…

“Disease” refers to any condition that disrupts the body’s normal functioning and alters homeostasis. Most diseases you’re labeled with are either named after the related organ (heart disease), or reflect a symptom or a cluster of symptoms (IBS, IBD), or are actually just symptoms themselves (gastritis) - but they tell you very little about the actual cause.

Symptoms are a perfectly natural response from a body struggling to cope in an unnatural environment. They’re an alarm bell signaling that something in your environment needs to change, and they rarely ever occur "out-of-the-blue" or alone. The fact that you have symptoms means that your body is doing exactly what it's supposed to be doing - which is to signal you to correct your environment so you can return to a state of "ease."

The conventional medical model treats chronic disease by managing symptoms in one or more of three ways: cutting (surgery), burning (radiation), or poisoning (pharmaceutical drugs) - all of which only silence the alarm, but rarely ever addresses the root cause.

Wondering where to start?


What is Functional Diagnostic Nutrition?

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) is a holistic discipline that bridges the gap between functional medicine and clinical nutrition. Practitioners employ functional laboratory assessments and interpretations that identify malfunctions and “healing opportunities” at the root of most common health complaints. Our work includes customizing lifestyle & behavior programs that encompass diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, and supplementation recommendations. FDN Practitioners embrace metabolic individuality and seek to identify the underlying causes of dis-ease so that we can develop natural protocols that restore function, instead of just treating symptoms.
