Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Functional nutrition coaching is a holistic, science-based approach to health that addresses the root causes of imbalances or dysfunction in the body.

Instead of treating symptoms with a Band-Aid approach, functional nutrition coaches work to address the underlying factors that may be contributing to their clients’ health concerns.

This may include things like nutrient deficiencies or gut imbalances.

Functional nutrition coaches use a variety of tools and techniques to help their clients feel better and achieve optimal health.

This includes teaching and coaching clients about the right dietary and lifestyle changes along with sleep and stress management strategies.

A functional nutrition coach can help you identify and address the imbalances in your body before they become more serious health issues.
