Alice Before

Consulting with Stella last August was one of the best decisions of my life.  For the past five years, my health had increasing declined.  I experienced chronic and unexplained fatigue, insomnia, bloating, inflammation, digestive problems, and declining ability to absorb essential vitamins and nutrients.  Despite my efforts to “eat right” and exercise, I was feeling increasingly worse and putting on weight.  I felt helpless and quite frankly, I was convinced that I would never feel normal again.

 

Brenda Berg’s Story

Brenda Berg’s Story:

Brenda BergWhen Brenda initially signed up, she wanted to drastically improve her health, and be in the best shape of her life.  During our first appointment, Brenda shared that she felt  something wasn’t quite right.  She was working out daily, dieting and taking an array of vitamins, with no real improvements.  Brenda suffered from fatigue, inadequate sleep, and body-aches that would actually wake her up in the middle of the night.  She also had about 20 pounds to lose, with no success in her previous dietary intervention of calorie restriction–also known as dieting.  Finally, Brenda really wanted to be healthy (I’m quoting Brenda) ” I just want to be health and look good for my age.  I want my energy back!”

 

Individual. Specific. Nutrition

The Individual: We’re all unique.  Comprehensive analysis is generally overlooked in clinical practice.  It is imperative to identify imbalances and/or issues related to digestion & metabolism thoroughly with data provided by the client.

Specific: Fad diet companies geared at selling their programs have tried to incorporate a ‘personalized dietary approach’ in marketing agendas.  The only accurate “personalized-approach” is to use diagnostic measures, such as: Respiration to figure out resting expenditure, blood testing to understand underlying micronutrient deficiencies (e.g., Vitamin D), stool testing for yeast imbalance and gut-transit issues, and salivary tests for hormones and their metabolic influences (e.g., cortisol and digestion).

Nutrition: The famous quote–“One man’s food is another man’s poison”–is why I study and research nutrient-interactions within our bodies. Nutrition is the foundation to optimal health.
