Nutrigenomic Consulting
While you cannot choose your DNA.....
...you can change your epigenetics ​
Let's see how...
Epigenetics is the expression of our genes influenced by food, water, pathogens, toxic chemicals, and lifestyle; forever responding to our physical, biochemical and emotional state!
Nutrigenomics, is the study of how foods affect our genes and how individual genetic differences can affect the way we respond to nutrients and naturally occurring compounds in the foods we eat.
Learn how your genes have affected your health today, and how they will impact the quality of your life as you age and the quality of life of the future generations to come.
We have about 23,000 genes and 600,000 to 1.4 million SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the body that affect the production of enzymes. However, not all of them are clinically important. Genetics are inherited in a familial pattern. This means every single person in today's society needs to be thinking about charting their 'personal roadmap to health.'
As we enter the era of functional medicine, health care is changing into a new paradigm.....
where as a practitioner, I am looking for underlying causes of illness rather than band-aiding
and merely treating symptoms. This movement and my practice, adds a person's unique genetics
to lab findings and presenting symptoms. Let's get started feeling better while living longer!
'YOUR GENES LOAD THE GUN.....YOUR LIFESTYLE PULLS THE TRIGGER!'
1. Comprehensive Nutrigenomic Consultation
Functional Medicine/Nutrition, accompanied by genetics, is an evolution in the practice of medicine that better addresses the healthcare needs of the 21st century. We start this process by taking a detailed health history, review your current lab results, prior treatments and failed treatments and applicable SNP variant reports, etc.
The results will be an initial 'bio-individualized nutrigenomic treatment plan' just for you.
2. Functional Genomic AnalysisTM (FGATM)
It's no longer the model of 'take this supplement for that health concern.' This is a new paradigm based on the scientific principles of biochemistry. This consult will guide you through a systematically organized, customized genetic interpretation, lifestyle and dietary suggestion, as well as appropriate 'epigenetic' nutritional supplementation to help your body heal naturally and avoid future issues.
3. The StrateGene ReportTM
After years of digging through research, Dr. Ben Lynch and his team have identified key SNPs which are clinically relevant, and more importantly, which ones are not! Looking at our combinations of SNPs is not only fascinating, but inexplicably valuable in terms of unlocking the keys to your continued good health and eliminating the risk of future health conditions.
4. Pre-Natal Genetic Consulting for Future Parents
It's my goal to help potential parents bring healthy babies into this world. I want to optimize the lives of future children and in order to do that I will FIRST optimize the health of future parents. Ideally, this starts one year ahead of pregnancy; inclusive of diet, lifestyle, environment, mindset and pre-pregnancy genetic testing for future parents.
5. Lyme Clinic
Lyme Disease, better known as the 'great imitator,' is a devastating disease. Chronic Neurological Lyme is even more challenging. I know, first hand, how insidious it can be. The stealth Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb) species of bacteria is not the only culprit; it is a litany of co-infections, mycoplasmas, parasites, toxins, mold and retro-viruses that bring us to our knees.
6. Two Part Comprehensive Nutrigenomic Consult
This is a 'Two Part Comprehensive Nutrigenomic Consult' because there is too much information for us to discuss in one consult! It's similar to #1 Comprehensive Nutrigenomic Consultation, except it includes a 2nd consult whereby we review what is working and what isn't and make adjustments and put together a revised plan including Methylation, if appropriate!
7. General Nutritional Consultation
This consult is similar to #1, 2, and 3 nutrigenomic consultations, except it is 'without' the integration of your genetics.
This is because you have chosen not to look into your genetics. We still take a Functional Medicine and Nutritional approach, which is an evolution in the practice of medicine that better addresses the healthcare needs of the 21st century. Call for a 15 minute free consultation.
8. Autism Spectrum Consult
This consult is similar to Consult #1, 2 and 3 nutrigenomic consultations and focuses on an individual's health needs. Every child or young adult is different; although many children on the spectrum have specific genetic patterns that may have compromised the optimization of their health; especially in their detoxification pathways. Plus, most importantly, we cannot forget about epigenetics!
9. Long Haul Covid Consultation
Mild or moderate COVID-19 lasts about two weeks for most people. But in others, long term effects of Covid-19 can cause lingering health problems and wreck havoc for months. Coronavirus symptoms that persist or return three months (or longer) after a person becomes ill from the infection with SARS CoV-2 includes exhaustion, shortness of breath, cardiovascular symptoms, digestion, cognitive problems and kicks up old conditions we may have had long ago, like Lyme or Mast Cell, for example.
