What I Do
Nutrition guidance
I often say that food is so much more than just the sum of its parts. Calories, macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, & protein), vitamins and minerals don't tell the complete story of how food impacts our health and well being. The food that we eat contains information that our bodies decode and use within our cells. If we are eating foods that do not promote health, or if we eat nourishing food and have trouble integrating it, we will experience imbalances.
Supplements
In an ideal world, we would be able to get all of our nourishment from the foods that we eat. Based on your current health and medical history, family history, and medication usage, short-term use of supplements may be appropriate for you. When you think of supplements, a giant horse pill may come to mind, but that's not always the case. My approach is always to start with food and go from there.
Detoxification Support
Don't be fooled into thinking that a 'detox' is something that you can purchase and complete in 3 or 5 days. Your liver is responsible for detoxification, and never gets a day off. You can do more to support detoxification by having a reasonable bedtime than you can by purchasing a juice cleanse. Together, we can reduce the burden on your liver and support optimal liver function.
