Gut health nutrition bowl
Our focus is on Gut Health. We're looking at how your body is able, or not, to absorb what you're eating — more than what you are already eating. This is different from traditional nutrition programs…it's Beyond Kale & Calories!

What if it's not just about what you're eating, but about what your body can consume?

We're told that eating organic, home-prepared food is the answer to our quest for health and fat loss, but what if we are doing "all of the right things" and it doesn't "work"? Meaning, we don't "feel healthier"?

What if a nagging shoulder issue is actually something that could improve with better digestion…?

Nourishing our body and mind is more than just picking the right foods — it's about discovering the nutrients our body truly needs. We believe in using subjective and objective data to develop practical, real-world approaches to whole mind and body wellness. We understand that it's as important to feed your brain as it is your body.

What if common symptoms of what happens to us as we change throughout life could be greatly improved with access to the nutrition we're already consuming, and the body finding its own balance?

Our program focuses on a customized, personalized approach to what your body needs. By measuring what your body is able to consume from what you choose to eat, we can discover what sources of stress are present and how to alleviate specific imbalances to your health and well-being. From there, we recommend ways to bring your body, your organs, and your mindset into balance.

Make friends with food! Our body is our best friend. If food is the dearest friend of our body, we'd nurture that relationship, right? We strive to help you set attainable, sustainable goals to bring balance to your life and relationship with food.

Lifestyle Sustainability™: We believe a customized approach to nutrition is the best way to make lasting transformations to your health and nutrition. By experiencing a healthy relationship with food and supplements instead of promoting a "diet," we believe you can transform both mind and body and enjoy food and eating — perhaps for the first time in a long time.

Farmer's Market Seasonal Shopping

Visit a local farmer's market with our Nutrition & Digestive Health specialist and learn how to shop for seasonal fruits and vegetables — how to recognize quality and value, what certifications actually mean, and how to work with CSA boxes without waste. How much delicious food gets tossed because it's extremely perishable?

$197**

Cooking Session

Learn how to create meals quickly and easily that suit your taste and lifestyle. Includes shopping guidelines and meal-planning ideas for keeping the right ingredients on hand to minimize waste. It's a basic overview, kept simple — a down-to-earth session with an experienced cook, not a professional chef.

$297**

1-on-1 Personalized Shopping & Pantry List

Can be provided in person, FaceTime, or Zoom.

Personal Nutrition Survey

The only questionnaire of its kind, designed to subjectively identify dietary deficiencies in protein, carbohydrate, and fat, food enzymes, and coenzymes (vitamins and minerals) — essential to understanding the health and nutrition story of you. Complete it online at home or during an office visit.

$197**

The 24-Loomis Urinalysis

Where the Signs & Symptoms Survey is the subjective account of your health, this 24-hour test is the objective one — assessing enzyme and nutritional deficiencies and how your body assimilates carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. An in-home test, not covered by insurance, though results can be shared with your doctor.

$97**
