What does this process look like?
There are three parts to your health exploration and congratulations, you’ve already completed the first one! See below for what to expect from working with us.
Health Exploration Part 1 —
Recognizing Imbalances
What does it mean to be imbalanced?
Balance, by definition, is a state of equilibrium; so being imbalanced implies a state of inequity. This holds true for your gut, as it does every other part of your life. Gut imbalances are unique to each individual and will present differently from one person to the next. The one constant is the fact that your body DOES signal you when imbalances are occurring, typically with a feeling of being unwell. If you’re reading this, that means you’ve already taken the first step of actively listening to your body telling you something is out of balance.
Health Exploration Part 2 —
Determining Your Personal Imbalances
What does an imbalanced gut look like for me?
Your personal symptoms of feeling unwell are how your imbalances present. At Balanced Nutrition and Health, we will run a variety of assessments, including a detailed dietary and lifestyle intake, in addition to various labs test showing your gut microbial makeup, to get the full picture of YOU. We cannot address gut balance by looking at it in isolation from the rest of your whole person. We will use our full scope of diagnostics and assessments to figure out what your current state of gut health is comprised of and any factors that could be contributing to these imbalances.
Health Exploration Part 3—
Bringing Back Balance
How do I achieve gut balance?
Once we have the full picture of you, we will address dietary and lifestyle adjustments to help bring back balance to your gut, with the intent of bringing further balance to your overall life. We do this together, as a team, working at your level of comfort.
Our gut microbiome has the ability to impact both our physical and mental health - let’s figure out the best way to support and balance yours for optimal health opportunities and outcomes!
