What is a Functional Nutrition Counselor?

A Functional Nutrition Counselor is a trained professional who uses a holistic approach to nutrition and wellness, focusing on identifying and addressing the root causes of health issues rather than simply treating symptoms. The goal is to optimize overall health by considering all aspects of an individual's lifestyle, including diet, exercise, stress levels, sleep quality, and other factors that impact well-being. Functional nutrition counselors often work in partnership with clients to create personalized nutrition and lifestyle plans that support long-term health and balance.

In this approach, Jamie, as a functional nutrition counselor, specializes in several key areas that are fundamental to health - crucial factors in managing chronic illness and disease. These include:

1. Digestive Health: Since many health problems start in the gut, Jamie would assess and help improve digestion, absorption, and gut health, addressing issues such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and food sensitivities.

2. Blood Sugar Balance: Helping clients manage blood sugar levels to avoid spikes and crashes that can contribute to energy problems, cravings, mood swings.

3. Sleep Quality: Since restorative sleep is essential for physical and mental health, Jamie would work on improving sleep hygiene and addressing issues like insomnia or poor sleep quality.

4. Stress Regulation: Chronic stress can have widespread effects on the body, including disrupting hormones, weakening the immune system, and contributing to digestive issues. Jamie would help clients develop strategies to manage stress through nutrition, lifestyle changes, and mindfulness techniques.

5. Skin Health is not just about topical treatments or quick fixes but is deeply influenced by internal factors such as digestion, hormone balance, stress, and overall nutrient intake. Skin conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and even early signs of aging can be linked to underlying issues in these areas.
