I am a Registered Dietitian and Certified Integrative and Functional Nutrition Practitioner. I have a passion for healthy living and sharing my knowledge and expertise with those who struggle from chronic health conditions. The stresses of modern living, the standard American diet and the toxins we're exposed to on a daily basis has lead to 60% of American adults experiencing at least one chronic disease. I have seen the devastating effects of these illnesses and the frustration that accompanies months and years of symptomatic living with no answers. Lives are often on hold due to pain, lack of energy and debilitating mood issues. Conventional, pharmaceutical based medicine struggles to help chronically ill patients and they are living day to day with no direction or hope for a brighter future. I whole heartedly believe that
DIET, LIFESTYLE and ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES
are key to health and vitality. With proper education and guidance I have seen clients take charge of their health and heal themselves through applying correct principles and practices aimed at the root of the problem.
I am a sister and friend to those who have battled breast cancer and lost! I have witnessed the devastation and heartbreak cancer causes, especially when it comes back.
ONCE IS MORE THAN ENOUGH!
In addition to helping those with chronic illness, it is my goal to help breast cancer survivors overcome the odds of relapse with renewed health, strength and vitality for life. Chemotherapy and radiation are cancer causing agents. They may destroy cancer cells, but the compensatory damage they inflict is enough to cause autoimmune diseases, hormone imbalances, brain fog, nutrient deficiencies and other secondary effects. Being "cancer free" is not necessarily a free pass for life as cancer cells often linger undetected.
I help breast cancer survivors take fundamental healing steps toward body systems, apply nourishing food options, learn stress relieving techniques and obtain the necessary education and inspiration to achieve long term remission without any lasting side effects! Life with those you love should be filled with joy, not fear of what the future may bring. I give you hope and the confidence to live life freely, with purpose and with VITALITY!
I believe your environment is influenced by the relationships you have, the food you eat, the products you use and bring in your home, the physical properties of your dwelling and the purity of the water you drink. All of these environmental influences can be manipulated for better health.
As a mom of 8 children and a growing number of grandchildren I believe we must make changes to support the health and well being of future generations.
DIET, LIFESTYLE and ENVIRONMENT
are great places to start!
