Hello,
It is not normal not to feel well. That is your body trying to tell you something and you probably should listen. Whether you need help understanding what it is saying or if you have already started improving your health, it would be my privilege to help you in your journey.
I have a Masters degree in Nutrition, and I have completed 1,000 hours of supervised clinical care and passed the board exam for my Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) credential. A CNS is the most advanced certification for personalized nutrition practitioners. I am also a board-certified health coach trained in motivational interviewing and coaching techniques to help guide you to make the sometimes tough behavior changes needed to reach your goals. Although in solo practice, I regularly consult with my peers on cases and am constantly learning.
When both of my parents developed dementia late in life, I became highly motivated to find out why and what can be done about it to prevent dementia in myself, my family, my friends, and my clients. Formerly an engineer, I like to research and analyze data. I admire the work of Dr. Dale Bredesen, MD and those who have studied under him in identifying that Alzheimer’s is a multi-faceted disease that takes a multi-faceted approach to prevent or stop. His protocol has reversed cognitive decline, but it is not easy. It requires optimizing your health through diet and lifestyle, and finding and treating any underlying cause of inflammation, deficiency, or excess.
Now we can test for Alzheimer’s years before symptoms even develop, and that is the best time to address. I stay up-to-date on the latest clinical research for this disease and am a volunteer community educator for the Alzheimer’s Association available to give free presentations to your organization, company, or gathering. Let me share what I know and as Dr. Bredesen is fond of saying, make Alzheimer’s optional.
