I am a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner - NTP. NTP's are certified through the Nutritional Therapy Association (NTA).
NTP's are unique compared to many others in the nutrition and health field. NTPs take a foundational, holistic approach to wellness that focuses on the importance of a properly prepared, nutrient-dense, whole food diet paired with a well-balanced lifestyle. We understand the importance of honoring your body's specific feedback system and its incredible capacity to restore, regenerate, and correct itself when given the nutrients, tools, and opportunity to do so. When you give your body the nutrients it requires, wants, and supports the foundations of nutrition, you can support your body's natural pathway to health.
My practice centers around "bio-individual" nutrition and lifestyle. There is no one size fits all diet that works for everyone. Numerous factors determine an optimal diet for an individual. Factors like - age, activity level, genetics, location of and climate of where you live, and of course, your current state of health. The human body and its systems are complex, so what works well will be unique to the individual. As an NTP, I work with my clients in supporting them to get to the root cause of potential nutritional imbalances that may contribute to their health concerns and symptoms.
In short, as an NTP, I work with my clients directly to:
- Get their blood sugar under control. High blood sugar is a major cause of metabolic dysfunction, excess weight, inflammation, inability to lose fat, and mood swings.
- Identify and resolve digestive issues (Stomach, GI tract, liver & gallbladder, small & large intestine) through specific assessments and a little detective work. We begin the steps to better digestion.
- Ensure proper hydration and electrolyte balance. Fact: A healthy heart and bones require adequate hydration.
- Know the critical importance of Fatty acids and protein. While there is no one plan for everyone, most don't realize the value of these essential nutrients for optimal health and well-being.
- Focus on daily movement & exercise. I meet my clients where they are. However, strength training is the most beneficial for metabolic health, weight loss, and longevity. I help my clients find a way to adopt resistance training into their life.
- I will also create recipes, meal plans, help my clients remove toxic products from their homes, reduce stress, and improve sleep.
Each person is unique, and therefore I focus on each client's bio-individuality. We work together through specific assessments to determine what your body needs precisely, reduce inflammation, and restore your body to optimal health and wellness.
I'm humbly grateful to help women get back to the health and vitality they desire.
