what is epi-g. functional nutrition counseling?

"epi-g." is a nod to epigenetics, the science of how our daily choices and surroundings affect the way our genes work. Factors such as what we eat, how we move, how we handle stress, and the environments in which we live, can activate or deactivate specific genes. Whether you are seeking support in managing specific symptoms or maintaining your current level of wellness, functional nutrition helps examine the broader perspective to understand how your food choices and daily habits influence your overall well-being. As a Functional Nutrition Counselor, I listen to your story, explore your current routines (including how you eat, sleep, move, and manage stress), and, when appropriate, review basic lab work. Together, we co-create a plan that helps your body find balance, supporting aspects such as digestion, energy, and stress resilience to reach your personal goals. You can expect small, doable steps, minimal supplements, and regular check-ins to keep things on track. This is education and coaching, not medical treatment, so you gain lasting rhythms that work in real life.
