Lower the risks and the worry..
Treat the underlying causes using nutrition and lifestyle
Treat the underlying causes using nutrition and lifestyle
High cholesterol, blood sugar, or blood pressure can cause a lot of pain and anxiety as they put you at a higher risk for developing cardiovascular diseases and other health issues.
It can be frustrating when your doctor’s only solution is to recommend medication, along with the vague advice to “eat better” and exercise more. Where do you even begin, and what are the potential risks involved?
A functional medicine practitioner /nutritionist can help you take control of your health by creating a personalized nutrition plan and lifestyle recommendations to address your specific concerns. By identifying and addressing the root causes of your cardio-metabolic concerns, you can work towards improving your overall health and reducing your risk of chronic diseases.
With a functional medicine approach, you can gain a better understanding of the connection between your diet, lifestyle, and health, allowing you to make informed choices and take steps towards a healthier, happier life
Functional Medicine takes a different approach than ‘conventional’ medicine, as we focus on addressing the root cause of a disease, rather than just treating the symptoms.
During your first consultation with us, which usually lasts 1.5 hours, we will take a thorough look at all areas of your health. Our goal is to identify any underlying imbalances in your body that may be contributing to your health concerns. To achieve this, we may use cutting-edge lab testing, such as comprehensive lipid (cholesterol) profiles, which provide a more accurate measurement of your health risks compared to ‘conventional’ lipid testing.
By identifying and addressing the underlying imbalances in your body, we can work towards restoring optimal health and transforming your overall wellbeing.
After identifying any underlying imbalances in your body, we will provide guidance on how to improve your nutrition and lifestyle in order to reduce the risk factors contributing to your health concerns.
As part of our approach, we take into account various factors that can impact your health, such as gut and liver health, genetics, exposure to toxins, hormonal imbalances, and possible infections. By addressing these factors in a holistic way, we can create a personalized plan to help you achieve optimal health and wellbeing.
