By supporting the body's natural healing processes, functional nutrition can help achieve and maintain optimal health, leading to improved physical and mental well-being, increased energy, and a better quality of life

What is Functional Nutrition?

Functional nutrition focuses on:

  • Addressing the underlying causes, or root cause, of health problems rather than just treating the symptoms.

  • It takes into account an individual's unique biochemistry, genetics, lifestyle, and environmental factors to create personalized nutrition plans that support optimal health. What works for one person may not work for another.

Functional nutrition believes that:

  • Food is medicine.

  • Diet can be used to prevent and treat chronic diseases.

  • It emphasizes whole, nutrient-dense foods, and seeks to identify and correct nutritional imbalances that may be contributing to health problems.

Functional nutrition practitioners:

  • Work with individuals dealing with a wide range of health issues, from digestive disorders to autoimmune diseases to hormonal imbalances.

  • Identify the interconnectedness of the body's systems and how lifestyle factors such as stress, sleep, and exercise may impact overall health and well-being are ALWAYS taken into account.

Optimal health refers to a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being where an individual is able to function at their highest potential and achieve their goals. It involves maintaining a balance between various aspects of health, such as nutrition, exercise, stress management, and social support, to achieve a state of vitality and resilience. Optimal health may vary from person to person, depending on their genetics, lifestyle, and environment, but it generally involves feeling energetic, alert, and fulfilled, and being able to enjoy life to the fullest.
