What is Functional Nutrition?

Functional nutrition is a highly personalized plan that focuses on eating for health with potential use of supplements, botanicals and appropriate lifestyle interventions. The principal goal of functional nutrition is to prevent or reverse diseases related to diet and lifestyle choices. In addition, functional nutrition practitioners focus on investigation of nutritional deficiencies that may be caused by food choices, genetics, environment, or issues with digestions and absorption of essential nutrients.

Over two years ago, I was diagnosed and was suffering from Lyme Disease. After being under the care of conventional physicians I was still experiencing symptoms and chronic pain. After utilizing Katherine's nutrition and supplement recommendations  I have hope I can beat this. I now experience more symptom free days and feel healthier than I have been in a long time. I feel so grateful and fortunate to have her in my life.

I cannot say enough good things about Katherine. I have been working with her for 6 months and I have seen significant changes in my body and the issues I was having. She is very thorough and goes above and beyond for her clients. It is clear that she dedicates a lot of time and effort into researching and finding the best supplements and protocols for you. I trust  her immensely and would highly recommend her to anyone!
