FAQ

1. What is Functional Nutrition?

Functional Nutrition is a personalized, science-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of various health concerns, such as digestion, skin issues, weight management, and gut health. My goal is to create individualized protocols that support your body's unique needs in order to promoting healing and optimal functioning of your body systems.

 

2. How does Functional Nutrition differ from conventional nutrition?

Functional Nutrition goes beyond macronutrient and calorie counting. We explore the interconnectedness of the body's systems, emphasizing a holistic approach in order to design personalized protocols that utilize nutrition and lifestyle modification to address the root causes to your concerns. My goal is to help you learn how to best nourish your body in a way that is sustainable so that you can achieve long-term health benefits.

 

3. What can I expect during a consultation?

In your consultation, we will delve into your health history, lifestyle, specific concerns and health goals. This comprehensive evaluation enables me to create a personalized protocol tailored to your unique needs. I prioritize open communication, ensuring you actively participate in the decision-making process.

​

4. Is Functional Nutrition suitable for weight management?

Absolutely. My personalized protocols include strategies for healthy weight management, considering factors such as metabolism, detoxification, blood sugar balance, hormones, diet, movement and lifestyle. I aim for sustainable results, promoting overall well-being rather than quick fixes.

​

5. How does Functional Nutrition address digestive issues?

Functional Nutrition looks beyond alleviating immediate symptoms to identify the underlying causes of digestive issues. I'll help you to implement lifestyle and nutrition practices as well as targeted supplements to optimize your digestive function. If recommended, we can utilize specialized Gut Microbiome Testing (GI MAP) & food sensitivity testing to uncover any imbalances that may me contributing to your condition. 

​

6. Can Functional Nutrition help with skin problems?

Yes, Functional Nutrition considers the intricate connection between diet, gut health, and skin conditions. I'll create a personalized protocol that may include dietary adjustments, supplementation, and lifestyle changes in order to promote clear, vibrant skin from the inside out.

 

7. Are your protocols suitable for vegetarians or vegans?

I want to be transparent that optimizing nutrition specifically for vegetarians or vegans is not my expertise. If you are open to incorporating some animal products into your diet like eggs and fish,  I would be more than happy to work together and provide tailored support based on your preferences and health goals. Please feel free to reach out, and we can discuss the best approach for you.

​

8. How long does it take to see results?

The timeline for seeing results varies based on individual factors, including the complexity of your health concerns and your commitment to the recommended protocols. My goal is to empower you with sustainable strategies that contribute to long-term well-being.

​

9. How often do I need follow-up consultations?

Follow-up consultations are typically scheduled based on your progress and individual needs. These sessions allow us to assess your response to the protocol, make any necessary adjustments, and provide ongoing support to help you achieve your health goals. With that said, I usually recommend at least a 3 month commitment where we meet 1x/month in order for you to get the most out of our time working together.
