Who We Help

If You Have Any Kind of Food Sensitivity, My Nutrition Services Will Help

 Most clients come to me because they have exhausted their Western medical options. Some can't lower their cholesterol or blood sugars without medication. Some can't control the symptoms of their autoimmune disease. Some have weight issues. Others know that they should eat more healthfully but can't because they've become addicted to foods, sugars, and/or carbohydrates.


At Essentials for Health, I focus on healing your gut. I start by taking a personal health history and finding out not just what you eat, but how you eat, when you eat, and the effects foods have on you. Through a series of detailed questions, I find out if you have ever had sensitivities to certain types of foods. Sensitivities are more prevalent than most people think. They can begin at any age for a variety of reasons and can go away or progress into or throughout adulthood. Treating food sensitivities is often my first step to providing significant relief if not the complete elimination of symptoms.

Disorders My Certified Nutrition Consultant Services Can Address

  • Autoimmune disease: working to decrease symptoms and possibly medication
  • Food intolerances: food allergies and sensitivities
  • Diabetes and diabetic-related disease: how to control blood sugars and to use as little medication as possible (including insulin)
  • Celiac disease and it's symptoms
  • Fertility issues
  • Pain, including migraines, fibromyalgia and joints
  • Thyroid problems
  • Children with special needs, learning disabilities, and nutritional related problems
  • Autism
  • Cancer support, especially during and post chemotherapy
  • SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth)
  • Chronic urinary tract infections
  • Adults and children with allergies and asthma
  • Adults and children with gastrointestinal health problems
  • High cholesterol, high blood pressure and heart-related problems
  • Adult and child obesity and weight management
  • Sleep Issues in all age groups

FROM ONE TO MANY ISSUES, LET ME HELP YOU

Autism

Childhood Fever

Childhood Fever

This child's mom had a lot of inflammation during pregnancy and an overactive immune system. The child was put on antibiotics immediately after his C-section birth and several times for Strep infections. He was born with autism and later found to have Precocious Puberty. Changing his diet modified his behavior and enhanced his learning skills in just a few months. In the past, when he would get a cold, it would take weeks to normalize his behavior. Therefore, our secondary goal was to strengthen his immune system to reduce his colds, which we did, and this has improved his mood and calmed his outbursts.

This child was diagnosed with PFAPA, high (102 to 104 degrees) episodic fevers that occurred every 5 weeks. There is no known cause or specific treatment. This child was given antibiotics and prednisone to regulate the disorder. I decided to treat the PFAPA as though it were an autoimmune disease. I changed the child's diet dramatically and supported her immune system. The fevers decreased in frequency alongside an improvement in mood and energy.

Fatigue

Crohn's

Crohn's

Most clients suffer from fatigue. A client diagnosed with chronic fatigue was seeing doctors at the chronic fatigue clinic of a major university health center. Chronic fatigue may be caused by health issues such as sleep disturbances or sleep apnea, food allergies, thyroid problems, diabetes, and more. You may not think these are diet-related but diet is often the cause. We adjusted this client's diet, eating habits, and thyroid medication and in a few months the symptoms of his chronic fatigue had dissipated.

 


Fertility

Multiple Sclerosis

Fertility

 One client had a complex situation with overlapping autoimmune diseases. She wanted to get pregnant, which seemed impossible. I didn't look at her specific autoimmune diseases, but addressed her symptoms, supported and balanced her immune system and decreased inflammation by healing the gut. Months after dietary changes, she became pregnant and now has a beautiful baby girl. 

Mood

Multiple Sclerosis

Fertility

 Another client was taking anti-depressants. She was searching for a natural way to wean off of them. She wanted to become pregnant and was told she needed an egg donor due to her age and the fact that her ovarian reserves were low. She worked with an alternative practitioner who replaced the anti-depressants with many supplements, but her diet was not changed. She spent over $5,000 in tests from another doctor, only to be prescribed even more supplements. I designed a personalized diet to reduce inflammation, eliminated most of the supplements, and she eventually became pregnant at 43 years old. Today, she is the mother of a beautiful baby girl. 

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis

 MS is a debilitating disease. My client loved to show and ride her horse. Many of her horse shows were hours away from home. The drive alone would put her into such a fatigued state that it made going to horse shows almost impossible. Today, with dietary and lifestyle changes, she is able to drive long distances, show her horse and manage her fatigue. She is also now medication-free. Her MD was so impressed with her success that the neurologist, myself and a team of practitioners conducted a retreat together to study the possibilities of slowing down the progress of the disease through complimentary care.
