Have you ever wondered if nutritional supplements could benefit your lifestyle?

In order for your body to function properly, it needs to maintain certain amounts and balances of nutrients. We all have the opportunity to nourish our bodies, but if you fail to supply it with nutrients, you are not going to be able to live your life efficiently. Studies show that over the last 100 years, degenerative diseases have skyrocketed, proving this country’s lack of optimal nutritional requirements. On the other hand, if you provide yourself with nutrients you have the ability to stay health, trim, and energetic for life.

To my clients that are skeptical about taking Metabolic Typing® supplements, I often suggest a trial run. I recommend taking the supplements I provide you for 2 months, then stopping completely to compare the way you feel while on them and not.

1.) Quality of Food

Unfortunately, the food available in today’s market does not provide the proper nutrients to maintain good health. Methods of storing, processing and preserving often severely devitalize foods nutritional value. In addition, many of the modern techniques used to grow food faster, larger and on nutritionally depleted soils have destroyed the original, natural quality of our food supply.

But even more alarming is the fact that science has found that the nutrient content of even organic foods is dramatically less than it used to be. Therefore, Nutritional supplements supply a concentrated form of nutrients which can easily compensate for this lack of nutrients.

2.) Time

I teach my clients the difference between just getting enough nutrition to keep you going and in getting optimal nutrition for your Metabolic Type® on a daily basis. Many people have busy schedules which, they feel, make it impossible to eat whole, natural food. Nutritional supplements
can fill in the gap where proper eating habits fall
short.

3.) Modern Lifestyle

Due to our modern lifestyles, we experience additional stress levels at home and at work than we did in past times. We are exposed to an incredible amount of toxic burdens in the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat. These factors dramatically increase the body’s requirements for nutrients. Our modern environment itself poses a challenge to our health with industrial air pollution, 10,000 chemicals in our food supply, sick-building syndrome, holes in the ozone layer, chemically-treated drinking water, and so on. All of these issues place an increased demand for nutrients on your
metabolism that may only be met through nutritional supplementation.

4.) Genetic Variations

The genetic requirement for nutrients varies tremendously between people. There can be a 2, 5 or even 10 fold difference in the need for certain nutrients. To meet this wide variation through just food could be quite difficult. The technology of The Healthexcel System of Metabolic Typing® provides the ability to supply each individual with his or her unique biochemical requirements — namely, nutrients of the right kind, in the right amount, at the right time and place in the body, and in a form which is readily utilizable for any given Metabolic Type. Therefore, I provide nutritional supplementation for every individual genetic requirements.

5.) Deficiencies

If you are not taking care of yourself, there is a good chance your body will be experiencing certain deficiencies, including the ability to digest and assimilate your food. The combination of not fully digested food, along with the lack of nutritional food, means you might make a great candidate for these supplements.

6.) Strengthening

We use nutritional supplements to target weak areas, as well as to support the rebuilding processes by supplying required raw materials. For example, if you have digestive weaknesses or allergic reactions to foods, (a very common occurrence), nutritional supplements can build digestive strength, while at the same time allowing you to readily and easily acquire nutrients which you may otherwise have difficulty in getting due to poor digestion and assimilation.

7.) Eating Less

Nutritional supplements can provide an excellent means of making sure that you get enough nutrients on a regular basis without having to burden your system with eating large amounts of food. The
digestion of food in high quantities requires far more energy than the digestion of a few nutritional supplements. In addition, supplements are an ideal way for you to get certain necessary nutrients from foods which you might find objectionable in taste, such as liver or bee pollen.

8.) Customize Your Nutrition

Lastly, nutritional supplements allow for your body to design multi-vitamin / mineral formulas that address the needs of the specific Metabolic Types, correcting imbalances in all the Fundamental Homeostatic Controls unique to each person.

With the seasons changing and fall quickly approaching, I’ve seen a plethora of new clients to my page looking to start living their healthiest, happiest lives. I wanted to write a quick blog post introducing some of my most popular services to these new faces. In all aspects of my work, my goal is to identify the root cause of any underlying health symptoms, so that you can achieve your maximum health potential.

Below I will write a brief overview of each service I currently provide through Living Balance Wellness. Please visit the Services section of my website for more detailed information on each.

Metabolic Typing
Hair Mineral Analysis
Gastro-Intestinal Health
Adrenal Stress Test
Meridian Autonomic Testing
Emotional Freedom Technique

Metabolic Typing:

Healthexcel’s Metabolic Typing is an easy-to-use, proven technology that allows you to rapidly identify your own highly individualized dietary needs through discovering your metabolic type. Take a look at what eating to support your metabolic type can do for you:

Optimizes Cellular Energy Production
Normalizes Appetite
Eliminates Cravings
Increases Focus and Concentration
Balances Emotions
Improves Mood
Increases Energy and Athletic Performance

Hair Mineral Analysis:

A hair sample, when properly obtained, analyzed, and interpreted, acts as an excellent screening tool for complex nutrient interrelationships within the body and provides specific information about one’s metabolic and nutritional status. This includes the effects of diet, nutritional supplementation, stress, toxic metal exposure, and even inherited mineral patterns.

The Hair Mineral Analysis Evaluates:

Digestion and Assimilation of Nutrients
Presence of leaky gut or dysbiosis
Overall Thyroid and Adrenal Function
Blood Sugar Regulation
Internal Stress Response
Heavy Metal Toxicity

Gastro-Intestinal Health:

The 401 H Intestinal Screen is an incredibly reliable intestinal microflora screen documents parasitic and pathogenic involvement that can interfere with normal gastrointestinal function and develop into a health related condition. This is an ideal first step for anyone suffering an assortment of the following symptoms:

Gas or bloating
Chronic Fatigue
Diarrhea or constipation
Digestive discomfort
Food allergies
IBS or Colitis
Anxiety, irritability or tension
Food sitting heavy on the stomach after eating

Six stool samples and one smear are taken over a four-day period, providing a highly reliable comprehensive analysis of intestinal microflora. Proper testing and treatment are crucial to regaining your health!

Adrenal Stress Profile Test:

The Adrenal Stress Profile Tests your hormone and immune system function for those chronically tired, or who get sick often. With this simple saliva test, you can test 11 different hormones in the body and determine how your internal system (specifically your adrenal function), is responding to stress.

Meridian Autonomic Testing:

Meridian Autonomic Testing is a non-invasive system of evaluating the body in order to determine the underlying causes of health complaints or imbalances. This technique is probably very different from anything you might have experienced before and might at first seem a little strange. Unlike a blood test or tissue sample, which is very cut and dry and tangible, Meridian Autonomic Testing is an evaluation of the body’s nervous system – It is an “energetic test,” using your own body’s bio-feedback.

This technique analyzes different areas on the surface of the body that relate to the state of health and to the flow of energy in each and every organ and function of the body. For instance, there are certain points on the body that correspond to an organ, tissue, or function. By applying very slight pressure to those points, a practitioner is able gage the effect that energy or lack of energy is having on these specific areas, and in effect, helps identify exactly what the body needs to obtain balance and optimal health.

Meridian Autonomic Testing is not used to diagnose or treat disease, but rather to assess your body’s current state of health. Using real food nutrition i.e., safe, natural, nutritional means, we can then help the body repair itself and to attain more optimum individualized health with each visit.

Emotional Freedom Technique:

EFT is an amazingly efficient technique that allows you to halt the fight-or-flight response and reprogram the brain and body to act, and react differently. EFT is so effective at calming the nervous system that MRI’s and PET scans can actually record the “red alert” being called off in the brain during the EFT process. By retraining your brain with this technique, you are able to permanently alter conditioned fear pathways. You can develop new ways of thinking and perceiving the world and release debilitating fears, thoughts and memories.

Check out a recent blog post I wrote with more details about EFT.

I’d love to talk to you in greater detail about any of the above tests and screenings! Get in touch if I can help you.

Remember this on your next trip down the produce aisle…

During discussions of nutrition and clean eating, my clients often seek my advice regarding whether they should be purchasing organic or conventional foods at the grocery store. Whenever possible, I always like to recommend organic foods; however, I understand this is not always realistic due to a variety of reasons including budget, access to organic stores, etc. Fortunately, you don’t have to purchase all organic produce to reduce your risk for chemical contamination and pesticides.

Every year the Environmental Working Group releases two lists called the Dirty Dozen™ and the Clean Fifteen™. The Dirty Dozen™ contains the 12 items most likely contaminated with pesticides. These are not necessarily items you need to avoid or stop purchasing altogether, but where they are deemed the ‘dirtier’ of the bunch, it’s important to pay closer attention to these items and really evaluate the source of purchase.

On the other hand, the Clean Fifteen™ list includes the 15 items least likely contaminated with pesticides. These are the more reliable, trustworthy options, regardless of where you are shopping.

Take a look at these lists below – I think you’ll be shocked at some of this year’s picks!

Dirty Dozen™ – EWG’s 2021 Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™

Strawberries
Spinach
Kale, collard and mustard greens
Nectarines
Apples
Grapes
Cherries
Peaches
Pears
Bell and hot peppers
Celery
Tomatoes

Clean Fifteen™ – EWG’s 2021 Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™

Avocados
Sweet corn
Pineapple
Onions
Papaya
Sweet peas (frozen)
Eggplant
Asparagus
Broccoli
Cabbage
Kiwi
Cauliflower
Mushrooms
Honeydew melon
Cantaloupe

Interested in these lists, but still need a little help planning your next grocery run? I am a functional nutrition and wellness consultant and would be happy to assist further! I’m available for in person or remote consultations. Reach out anytime.

Could a juice cleanse be just what you’ve been looking for?

We still have the majority of August, but there’s no denying that summer will be coming to a close before we know it! As great as the snack-filled beach days and sugary cocktails by the water are during the summer months, they have a habit of catching up to us quickly. If you’re looking for a way to get back on track, a juice cleanse might be just what you need to transition back into fall. In fact, many of my clients often use a juice cleanse as a way to “kick-start” their way into a healthier lifestyle.

To start, I recommend a 3-day juice cleanse for my clients who are new to the world of juicing. This 3-day mark is the perfect amount of time to help individuals in overcoming dependencies on processed foods, refined carbohydrates, and saturated fats. Not only will the juices reduce the stress on your digestive system, but they will also provide your body with a boost of hydration and plant micronutrients.

A common misconception my clients have is that the juices will be bland or boring, but I’ve compiled some of my favorite recipes – all delicious and packed with everything you’ve been missing to detoxify your body! Between Strawberry Alfalfa, Lemon Drop, and Gallbladder Bliss you’ll have a hard time choosing a favorite. Bookmark these full recipes for when you’re ready to try a cleanse!

If you live with a loved one or have a friend you believe could benefit from the cleanse, accountability partners are always helpful and encouraged!

Please note, I do not recommend a juice cleanse to clients with unstable blood sugar, a candida infection, or those who do not consider themselves to follow a well-nourished diet. If you’re not sure if you fall into one of these categories, feel free to reach out to learn more – I’d love to hear from you!

As a functional nutrition and wellness consultant and coach, clients often come to me feeling tired with weight to lose and big sugar cravings! I work with them on a personalized plan to achieving and maintaining their ideal weight as well as feeling more energy and that often starts with these 10 steps. Every BODY is different, but these steps are a good starting point for anyone.

Be mindful of combining your meals with a Protein, Fat, and Carbohydrate. Carbohydrates should primarily come from vegetables.
Buy grass fed meats and organic grains and produce as much as possible. You’ll want to avoid assimilating the harmful chemicals often used in conventional farming and processed foods. If consumed in high amounts, your body will create additional water and fat cells to store them in order to protect your vital organs.
Try to go grain free for a minimum of three months. This will force you to eat more vegetables and to stay away from the addictive high starchy comfort food grains provide – not to mention the inflammatory affect gluten can have on the body.
Try to go dairy free for a minimum of three months. Pasteurized dairy has little nutritional value and is therefore fattening. In addition, dairy contains a protein called Casein, which can contribute to inflammation in the body.
Minimize or avoid alcohol and carbonated beverages, both of which in excess, can create mineral deficiencies and lead to digestive issues as well as water retention.
Avoid Synthetic Sweeteners. Use raw honey, Grade B Maple Sugar, or palm sugar if necessary.
Drink more water – Drink at least ½ your body weight in ounces of water per day.
Be mindful of eating. Chew your food slowly. Eat only until you’re not hungry anymore. Stop before you’re full. Try not to go 4 hours without any food – this will slow down metabolism and contribute to food cravings and over-eating.
Eat more raw! If you haven’t already, invest in a VitaMix Blender. This will allow you to blend a variety of vegetables and fruit into a delicious smoothie. One of my favorite recipes is 1 apple, 1 cucumber, a handful of spinach, 1-inch cube of fresh ginger root and 1 TBS of coconut oil. This recipe would make 2-servings and could be consumed as a meal with a healthy protein on the side.

Millions of Americans suffer from food sensitivities. Lingering health problems such as these listed are often related to specific immune reactions to the foods we eat.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Migraine & Other Headaches
ADD
Chronic Diarrhea
Heartburn/GERD
Weight Imbalances
Chronic Fatigue
Joint Pain
Muscle Pain
Arthritis
Insomnia
Fibromyalgia
Skin Eruptions
Chronic Sinusitis

From a functional nutrition approach, when I begin working with clients I help them identify the foods that are making them sick and the foods that are making them well. The first thing a food sensitivity sufferer needs to do is identify trigger foods, and food chemicals. The LEAP (Lifestyle Eating And Performance) MRT Food Sensitivity Test can help you do that. LEAP has helped thousands of people across the country turn years of suffering into bright, happy, healthy futures.

After conducting the LEAP Test, together we’ll identify the best foods for you to eat that will leave you feeling better, and of course, loving your life!

Here are some more details on LEAP MRT Testing:

“MRT is the only sensitivity blood test in the entire world that quantifies the degree of the inflammatory response in sensitivity pathways. That means in addition to identifying the foods with the highest degree of reaction, more importantly, MRT is able to identify the foods that have the lowest degree of reaction (in sensitivity pathways). Immunologically speaking, the least reactive MRT foods are your best foods (as long as you have taken account of any food allergies and celiac disease). The least reactive MRT tested foods have the highest probability of being well-tolerated. And if they are foods you like to eat, which they usually are, those are the foods that will form the basis for the multi-phased LEAP eating plan. This feature of MRT eliminates the guesswork and makes building a healthy diet much easier. LEAP then builds a diet in a systematic and controlled way (phased approach), allowing you to implement dietary changes with a great deal of success.” – LEAP Eating Plan

Health is more than just eating well. Below you will find lifestyle suggestions designed to help you live a healthy, happy life.

Eating habits

Avoid cooking with electricity, especially microwave ovens. Convert to gas when practical.
Avoid water with chlorine and fluoride. Use spring water or a good-quality water filter.
Chew your food well, 30 seconds per mouthful or more, until it becomes liquid.
Read my 16 basic nutrition tips.

Relationships

View everything and everyone you meet with gratitude.
Do your best to be on good terms with people, especially your boyfriend or girlfriend, husband or wife, parents, children, brothers, sisters, friends and co-workers. Communicate with them regularly, either in person or via telephone or email.

Hygiene

To increase your circulation, scrub your entire body with a hot, damp washcloth morning and/or night.
Avoid wearing synthetic or woolen clothing directly on the skin. Wear 100% cotton clothing as much as possible.
Avoid chemically perfumed cosmetics.
For care of the teeth, use natural toothpastes.
Avoid excessive jewelry on your fingers, wrists and neck; fewer rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings and piercings allow your natural energy flow to circulate more freely.

Attitude

Give generously of yourself and your resources.
Live each day happily without focusing on your problems.
Hum or sing a happy song every day.
Foster a sense of humor.
Offer thanks before and after meals.
Most of all, create a positive attitude and wonderful environment around you, and enjoy the process of becoming healthier and happier every step of the way!

Meditation and Exercise

Treat yourself to regular daily quiet time – study, pray, meditate; recharge yourself.
Include exercise as part of your daily life. Experiment with an exercise style that works for you. Try yoga, Pilates, martial arts, walking, running, bicycling, rollerblading, swimming, dancing, weight lifting or competitive sports.

Home practices

Keep your home in good order, including kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living rooms. You are your home.
If possible, include large green plants in every room of your home and office to freshen and enrich the oxygen content of the air.
Minimize television watching, or at least keep a good distance away from the television.

Now more than ever, it’s so important to relieve stress for your physical health. Actively resting and slowing things down helps with that! Here are 10 tips for slowing down.

Take the time to prioritize daily objectives. By focusing on the most important tasks to get done, we eliminate the hustle and stress of trying to accomplish everything at once.
Cut personal internet use by half. Technology has become a major element in most of our lives. Social networking, email, and web-surfing can occasionally cause our minds to lose focus and wander through hundreds of topics, thoughts and ideas. Try to use half your designated internet time to explore new hobbies, exercise or meditate.
Enjoy nature. When time permits – take a 5 to 10 minute break to step outside and breath-in some fresh air. Disconnect from the rest of the world and concentrate on the beauty of nature.
Eat Slower. A lot of us tend to speed through meals – missing the chance to appreciate different textures and flavors. Start to chew foods more slowly while trying to distinguish new tastes, aromas and consistencies.
Connect with family and friends. We all try to make a considerable amount of time to spend with close friend and family. We discuss life events, exchange stories – but how often do we catch-up while truly listening and connecting? Put away the cellphones and steer clear of noisy environments. Connect on a deeper level.
Make time for yourself. When’s the last time you spent valuable time by yourself? Take a night to find a new book, watch a favorite movie, try yoga, meditate or cook a new recipe.
Give yourself more time. Some of us like to stick to a tight schedule and plan all our daily events. Next time you’re jotting down new tasks in your planner, try to factor in a few extra minutes when estimating how long things will take. This will help you not rush through daily tasks.
Take the scenic route. Next time you’re driving a somewhat long distance – try taking the scenic route. Driving through open fields, mountains, or viewing a city skyline can be very relaxing. Check out the scenic routes before your next trip!
Sit for a moment with your eyes closed when you start your computer. Even just a few moments of meditation can set the tone for the rest of your day. Try to empty your mind and take deep breaths before jumping into your day’s tasks.
Remember your goals and aspirations. Each morning when you wake up, take a few moments to think about your life goals and aspirations. Try to recall the milestones you’ve already made in your life, and your drive to achieve new ones. Try doing this for about 5 minutes before finally getting out of bed to start your day.

Need more tips for stress relief? I have plenty! I’m a functional wellness and nutrition consultant and coach based in Greater Boston, Massachusetts. I’d be happy to help you practice slowing down and get on your way to living a healthy life you love. Get in touch anytime.

Have you gotten used to reaching for sugary cereal and an OJ to start your day? Consider this: your body can only handle approximately 1tsp. of sugar in the blood stream at any given time. Any more than that and you’re in trouble. One 12 ounce glass of OJ provides a whopping 8 teaspoons! So what happens? In a nutshell, the pancreas has to work on over-drive to produce enough insulin to regulate the amount of sugar entering the blood stream at any given time. The body interprets this constant demand on the pancreas as an internal stress and alerts your adrenals to get involved. Your adrenals are what produce the “fight or flight” hormone called cortisol to help your body deal with stress appropriately. In normal amounts, cortisol acts as an anti-inflammatory and natural pain reliever. The problem is, when this hormone is being produced on a consistent basis, and in high amounts, it has the reverse affect. It starts to cause inflammation and pain!

Once you’ve started this cycle, it can be hard to get out of because your body starts to crave the very thing that is causing the stress response….SUGAR! Do yourself a favor and cut out the sugar – that means carbohydrates folks. Try to eat more healthy proteins, fats, and low starch vegetables. In fact, give up the cereal for your morning breakfast all together and try replacing it with these instead:

High Protein Shake:
- 8-10 ounces of Coconut Milk (found in the dairy section at Whole Foods) or Almond Milk
- ½ avocado
- 4 ounces FAGE Greek yogurt (found in dairy section at Whole Foods – full fat please)
- 1 raw egg (organic free range) ….if your queasy about a raw egg, replace it with some almond butter – no peanut butter though!
- 1/2tsp of stevia or xylitol
- Blend together!
Free Range Eggs: Scramble, Soft Boil, or Fry Eggs, 2 cups Steamed Kale or Spinach, 1/2 Sliced Avocado
Any of these other 9 Protein Shakes!

Be creative and try something different – just don’t go for that bagel with cream cheese, muffin with butter, or slice of toast and jam.
