Your genes are not your destiny. And one-size-fits-all nutrition and diet prescription is a thing of the past. The Science of Nutrigenomics will open your eyes to how your nutrition and genes interact. By examining over 134 genes, you’ll discover insights into your metabolism, inflammation, detoxification, fitness, body weight, hormones, cognition, and response to diet and supplements. This knowledge empowers you to make food, lifestyle, and supplement choices that are perfectly tailored to your unique genetic markers.
Hormones – these little guys are the unsung heroes (or sometimes villains) of our bodies. They influence everything – from how I feel when I wake up to why I crave certain foods.
These natural chemicals regulate blood sugar levels, blood pressure, growth and fertility, sex drive, metabolism, sleep, and so much more! Naturally, identifying and addressing the root cause of any hormonal imbalances is the key to feeling like your best self.
Our gut is like a second brain, and yours has had quite a story to tell. Testing allows us to eavesdrop on the conversation happening between the trillions of “good and bad” microbiomes inhabiting your digestive system. Understanding this complex dialogue is crucial, especially when tackling issues like difficulty losing weight, gut issues, IBS, fatigue, anxiety, or autoimmune conditions. Once you have the testing results in your hand, we can deep-dive into the underlying causes and efficiently address your symptoms to heal.
Antioxidants? They’re like your personal bodyguards, shielding from the sneaky attacks of free radicals and oxidative stress, which can lead to inflammation—the #1 silent health saboteur. Micronutrients also play an essential role in the body, including immune function, energy production, and bone health. By understanding your micronutrient profile, we can craft a scientifically precise food and supplement plan with all the minerals and antioxidants your body is craving.
Do you know how well your body is detoxifying itself? Not many do. But if you just don’t feel like yourself, then Organic Acid testing gives insights into not only your energy production, fat/carbohydrate/protein metabolism, gut and brain health, and nutrient deficiencies—it evaluates the efficiency of your body’s detoxification processes. This test helps us identify where additional support is needed in creating a more comprehensive optimal health plan.

To manage these changes, it’s essential to maintain a balanced diet, stay physically active, and consider stress-reducing techniques like yoga or meditation.
Heavy menstrual cycles, also known as menorrhagia, can be caused by a variety of factors, including hormonal imbalances, uterine fibroids, and certain medical conditions like thyroid disorders or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Lifestyle factors, such as stress and significant weight changes, can also contribute to heavier periods. It’s important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the specific cause and appropriate treatment for heavy menstrual cycles.
Leaky gut syndrome, characterized by increased intestinal permeability, often presents symptoms such as chronic diarrhea, bloating, and gas. Other signs can include nutritional deficiencies, fatigue, and skin issues like eczema or acne. It’s also linked to systemic issues like food sensitivities, headaches, and joint pain, making it important to seek medical advice for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
Uterine fibroids themselves don’t directly cause weight gain, but they can grow large enough to add weight and cause a noticeable increase in waist size. Additionally, the bloating and swelling associated with fibroids may give the impression of weight gain.
Yes, weight management with PCOS is achievable through a combination of a balanced, nutrient-rich diet and regular exercise, which can improve insulin resistance and hormonal balance.
