Functional Nutrition Lab Testing Interpretation with Nutrition and Lifestyle Interventions
Personalized Nutritional Supplement Recommendations
The world of supplement selection can be confusing, to say the least. How do you know tell which ones you need? Also, given the lack of stringent testing requirements for dietary supplements, product quality varies widely.
When I make recommendations, I consider factors such as manufacturers' assurance of purity, quality, bioavailability (ability to be properly absorbed and utilized by the body), and effectiveness. Recommendations are tailored to your body's specific needs, based on several factors, such as functional nutrition lab testing results, nutrigenetics, and your personal goals.

Nutrigenetic Testing Interpretation with Nutrition and Lifestyle Interventions
The variations in our genes make us unique from one another. Genetic variation determines not only the color of our eyes and hair, but how we metabolize and utilize the foods, nutrients, and supplements we ingest.
-
Nutrigenetics refers to how we respond to nutrients based on our genetic profile.
-
Nutrigenomics explores how food and nutrients change the way our genes express themselves.
Working with both Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics allows for the development of recommendations that are personalized, targeted, and actionable. Research suggests that our unique genetic makeup influences the outcome of our health when taking our diet, environment, and our lifestyle into consideration. Lifestyle changes can have a dramatic impact on how genes express themselves.
Food Sensitivity Testing Interpretation with Nutrition & Lifestyle Interventions
Sensitivities to foods and food chemicals can be involved in a wide array of painful symptoms and chronic health conditions. If foods and additives in your diet are causing your illness, whatever medications you take will only mask the symptoms. They don't treat the underlying cause of the symptoms. And as is too often the case, many medications have side effects that can lead to other health problems.
Food and chemical sensitivities can be involved in a wide array of painful symptoms, such as migraines and fibromyalgia, arthritis and chronic fatigue.
The purpose of functional lab testing is to evaluate nutritional, biochemical, or physiological imbalance. In other words, it gives a deeper look into what's going on in the body so we can target specific areas as we personalize your nutritional interventions.

Metabolic Detoxification Program
The term detoxification refers to our body's natural ability to transfer and eliminate toxins. Toxins can derive from chemical pollutants, heavy metals, pesticides, drugs, alcohol, active/passive cigarette smoking, and food additives. However, toxins can also come from normal metabolism and intestinal build-up of unhealthy bacteria within your own body.
A number of symptoms and conditions have been associated with possible toxic exposures and toxicity, including:
-
Migraine headache
-
Fibromyalgia
-
Generalized arthralgias
-
Chemical sensitivity
-
Chronic fatigue syndrome
The Clear Change® Program enhances the body’s natural metabolic detoxification process while providing adequate fuel for both cleansing and other daily activities, supporting energy metabolism and overall well-being. It includes science-based nutritional recommendations for balanced metabolic detoxification support, along with a simple eating plan that removes common foods that can increase internal burden. Best of all, you can still enjoy a variety of solid foods without going hungry.*
