About Jan
Have you been to a myriad of healthcare specialists and can't seem to get an answer to why you still don't feel well?
Did you feel like all you received was another medication to add to the long list of medications you are already taking?
Have you been diagnosed with any of these chronic illnesses?
Reflux, Crohn's, IBD, IBS, Celiac, Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Hashimoto's, Restless Leg, Metabolic Syndrome, Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, Infertility, Obesity, Acne, Food Allergies/Sensitivities, or any Autoimmune Disease.
Chronic diseases are typically treated by prescription medication, with an array of side effects.
When treated from a functional medicine nutrition perspective the protocols create a dynamic state of improved physical and mental health without the side effects of standard drug therapies.
Functional medicine nutrition addresses the underlying causes of disease using a systems oriented approach that sees the body as a complete system, rather than individually functioning parts that aren't related AND honors your bio-individuality.
By addressing the root cause of the health issue using food as medicine rather than placating symptoms through drug therapies, patients frequently experience renewed health and unexpected vitality.
