Founder
Factors including nutrition, exercise, and sleep have a huge influence on our physiological and mental health. Did you know interrupted sleep along with stress could increase the risk of heart disease? Or that red meat was classified as a carcinogen contributing to colorectal cancer? We often neglect such factors as they became part of our routines, however, they do have a considerable impact on our health. The good news is that we can control these factors and prevent complications leading to chronic disease.
I apply functional medicine and nutrition to identify all potential factors leading to your conditions and help you set realistic goals to achieve optimal wellness. We will work together until you reach your desired objectives.
You are in control, you got this!
