Introduction: If you are suffering from chronic illness like gastrointestinal disorders, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, hypertension, metabolic syndrome; or if you're intent on preserving your health and reaching optimal wellness and greater vitality, then you've arrived at the right place! Functional nutrition when approached holistically and applied personalized to the individual, it is known to support the body's normal healthy functions. Functional nutrition based on scientific evidence is also known to support and compliment traditional medical approaches to treating disease and assisting in the body's own healing processes.
To develop successful personalized functional nutrition programs that support optimal health, it is critical to thoroughly and accurately assess the current health status of our clients, and to set a baseline and keep a record of health history and any changes. A thorough assessment may uncover developing health concerns that are not yet diagnosable, but we can make a plan using diet and smart supplementation to slow down or even stop their progression. The functional nutritionist wants to identify these issues and possible weaknesses in your biochemistry so that we can put you on a plan that is best for you. We want to get to the root cause of problems and consider all other facets of life that can have an impact on health.
In my functional nutrition practice I have researched and found that there are many ways to improve nutritional health and cleanse the body of toxins. At our clinic in San Francisco we have employed some of these therapies in combination with a personalized health and nutrition plan to optimize progress for our clients. However, these detox therapies can also stand alone and serve as a tool to optimize health and achieve other health benefits as a part of a long term health and wellness plan.

Because of my own health struggles and specific health concerns I've chosen to focus on gluten sensitivity, Celiac Disease, autoimmune disorders, and their related conditions. I have helped many clients heal their leaky gut using a strict diet and supplements that are formulated for restoring gut health and microbiota. I intend to continue helping many achieve greater health in spite of these challenges with proper nutrition, smart supplementation, and healthy lifestyle choices.
