Minimizing body burden = quality of life
It may surprise you that most of my clients don’t come to see me for weight loss or body composition goals. No, the majority of them initially seek nutrition counseling because they are suffering from either a single chronic condition or a cluster of them. Less than ideal body composition is just one symptom of an underlying issue that may actually be causing a number of other symptoms and conditions.
Here’s a list of just some of the conditions that, through diet and other holistic practices, we’re able to either significantly alleviate or completely eradicate:
fatigue
insomnia
migraine headaches
joint pain
gastric reflux
GI distress
eczema
psoriasis
asthma
brain fog
rheumatoid arthritis
high cholesterol
high blood sugar and pre diabetes
weak immunity
mood swings
vision impairment
gout
low libido
hearing loss
weight gain
If you’re suffering from any of the above, drop us a line, We might just have the strategy you’re looking for.
Program components
When considering the variables to optimize your health, these are some of the major components that may be addressed in your program.
Health is all about gathering electrons and minimizing their loss. Why are free radicals bad? They steal electrons. Why are anti-oxidants good? They donate electrons.
Do you remember photosynthesis and the Krebs cycle from high school biology? Photosynthesis is how plants take light and it turn it into energy and store electrons in the form of carbohydrate. The Krebs cycle is how we take that energy from the plant (food) in the form of electrons and convert it to ATP to power life.
We’ll devise an eating strategy for you that maximizes electron accumulation and minimizes electron loss. We’ll go over how to outsmart Big Food and avoid the stealthy electron-stealing poisons lurking in our food supply.
We’ll also customize a plan for you based on your activity level and biometrics. We’ll go through a whole day’s plan together and then you will have an online account where you can access your plan and make alternate and appropriate food choices.
Did you know that when it comes to exercise, more is not necessarily better? Did you know that too much of the wrong kind of exercise can make you gain even more unwanted weight and prevent you from packing on muscle? That exercising indoors under blue light may actually be hindering your progress?
In this part of the program, we’ll go over what kind of exercise gives you the most bang for buck, why stretching is so important, what specific stretches are most effective, what exercise variables increase testosterone, and under what conditions exercise may be most effective.
When your liver is overtaxed from filtering all the sludge in your environment, it fobs off the extra work to the lymphatic system. This system was originally designed to filter out small things like dust, bacteria, and virus. Not the modern onslaught of manmade chemicals. When the entire system is overwhelmed, the overflow goes to the space below the skin, resulting in the appearance of fat and congestion.
This can be measured! We will track your progress from week to week. The good news is, all that unwanted stuff can leave the lymph very quickly 1) making you look lean and mean and 2) enables the cell to function better which means fat loss and muscle gain will be much easier as well.
Food is the main contributor to lymphatic congestion but we’ll also cover how personal care products, air, clothing, and stress management can reduce your total body burden and the load on both your liver and lymphatic system.
Why is there so much conflicting info on supplements? Because they’re not all created equally! We’ll cover the importance of pharmaceutical grade products, Certificates of Analysis, and when supplements are and are not recommended.
We’ll give you the tools to navigate through the web of conflicting info to decide what you may and may not need and how to determine what brands work and which ones are all marketing and no substance.
We’ll also discuss how better managing your circadian biology may ultimately enable you to stop taking certain supplements.
Your eyes are not just for seeing! They are also powerful receptors of UV light that tell your body how to do everything optimally. Your skin also has this same receptor for UV light.
Since the invention of the lightbulb in 1879, rates of cancer and other illness have exploded. Now with LED light, 5g, and other forms of non-native EMFs, rates of cancer and other illness have exponentially increased. Our technology is outpacing our ability to physiologically evolve.
Modern life requires strategies for reclaiming your natural birthright to health. This will include resetting your biological clocks, minimizing blue light exposure, and getting your skin in the game.
When getting enough sunlight, why do you only need a fraction of your normal caloric intake? What alternate mitochondrial pathway makes this possible? How does sunlight exposure dramatically lower your cholesterol? How does cold therapy work?
How is mitochondrial health linked to the prevention of all chronic disease?
What behavioral practices and dietary adjustments can optimize mitochondrial function?
For the super curious, let’s make that quantum leap.
