Personal Nutrition Profiles
|
Functional nutrition is a science-based strategic approach to addressing one’s overall metabolic health; assessing and supporting the underlying causes of physical and mental imbalances through individually tailored therapies to restore health and improve function.

Nutrition therapy’s approach to health is to consider the whole person and develop a unique treatment protocol that will support the body and initiate its ability to heal itself.
With functional testing, a more in-depth assessment of your current state of health is attained and can guide the development of your program for optimal supplement and dietary support. Functional tests are used to identify how well various systems within the body are working and measure the progress of the recommended protocols. Through a Personal Nutrition Profile, a nutrition therapist can help you achieve your goals in a healthy and holistic way, working to optimize metabolic processes in order to prevent or manage imbalances and dysfunction; such as blood sugar imbalances, chronic inflammation, neurological degeneration, or weight management issues. The Personalized Nutrition Profiles allow us to look at your starting point so that we can map out the best route to take on the road to wellness. The REAL benefit is priceless: insight into your unique biochemistry; discovering what might be the root cause of your discomfort, where you might be headed for disaster, and science-based actionable solutions. |
If you have any of the following concerns, consider a Personal Nutrition Profile, so that you can stop guessing about your health and wellness.

Your Personal Nutrition Profile Includes:
Comprehensive Wellness Assessment - The program begins with a Comprehensive Wellness Assessment, lasting on average 1½ hours, during which we will review your medical, nutrition, and diet history as well as your lifestyle patterns and discuss your concerns in detail. You will be asked to complete a few forms prior to the session which will be discussed during our time together.The comprehensive wellness assessment is the first step in your nutrition and wellness program; a review of your current eating and lifestyle patterns, health history, personal goals, concerns and expectations will all be discussed during the session, from which you will receive foundational recommendations and Wellness Action Guidelines for immediate implementation. This assessment is often followed up with any additional tests and the Strategy Session, detailing next steps and therapeutic outline.
Functional Nutrition Analysis - After completing the Comprehensive Wellness Assessment, we will have a good understanding of your situation and the appropriate test profile(s) to complete the Functional Nutrition Analysis, evaluating your physiology and metabolic imbalances through a blood chemistry analysis, saliva and/or stool testing. Report of Findings & Strategy Session - A plan is put together based on the analysis of the Comprehensive Wellness Assessment and Nutrition Profiles. The plan will include recommendations for whole foods, therapeutic supplements, herbs and lifestyle changes to restore balance and target your specific needs and goals. Continued Care Options - Ongoing support is recommended in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the program and determine if any adjustments need to be made along the way. If you choose personal follow-up support, packages of six (6) follow-up sessions are available. Additional options include enrolling in a group or joining a community membership programs. Creating balance and developing mind-body consciousness is a process that takes time. Often you experience a lot of changes in the first six months, but still need additional and on-going support, which is why I created the Online Membership Community. |
