Kate’s Story: Sometimes a Perfect Diet isn’t Enough
In this video, I sit down with Kate to talk about her health journey. Kate was actually my very first one-on-one nutrition coaching client, and we started working together a few years ago. When Kate and I first worked together she definitely made some progress by changing her nutrition, but there were some lingering issues that still weren’t fixed. I suspected that these underlying issues were present when we started working together, but at the time we weren’t able to investigate them any further.
When I got my Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® certification about a year ago, Kate was the first to hop on board. The FDN program is perfect for someone like Kate whose diet, exercise, and sleep were on point, but she still felt like something wasn’t right.
With FDN we investigate underlying hidden causes of health issues like hormone balance, nutrient deficiencies, digestive issues, blood sugar imbalances, etc. Sometimes even a perfect diet isn’t enough to fix these things and that’s where FDN comes in.
In Kate’s case, there was an underlying digestive imbalance that was leading to a number of her main complaints. After trying everything else here’s what happened when Kate did the protocol to restore digestive balance:
-She lost 18lbs
-Her digestion was the best it’s ever been in her life
-Her sleep was dramatically better
-No energy crash at 2-3pm
-She didn’t need to take a nap in the middle of the day for the first time in 2 years
Kate we’re so proud of you and all your success! Keep up the great work!
