We can’t depend on other people or other things (aka shot, pill or isolation) to get our immune system stronger and more resilient.
BUT the positive news is that we can take ownership of our own health and improve our immune system with nutrition and lifestyle habits plus even do 3-5 functional lab tests to assess what is going on “under the hood” to optimize our health.
We should not assume we are healthy- even if you look good on the outside.
As a health and fitness coach for over 25 years, I have learned from personal experience and my clients that we may look good on the outside, but we are not always as healthy on the outside. You can learn about my story, experience and journey in my book “LIFE IS NOT A RACE” (on Amazon) – I was an elite competitive endurance athlete (triathlon- Ironman distance) but “suddenly” gained 30 pounds “overnight” and struggled with chronic fatigue plus more. My life as I knew it prior to March 2013, suddenly changed and has never been the same since.
Now it is my purpose and my mission to help other driven, ambitious, high performing individuals avoid becoming broken and burned out as myself. I am on a mission to help other individuals, who are stuck trying to do all the “right” things, get their desired results and reclaim their health. Now, as a certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and a Functional Nutrition Practitioner, I coach up individuals to get their body and vibrant self-back again by investigating the WHOLE person by collecting clues with functional lab tests and nutritional therapy -then put the missing pieces of their health puzzle back together again by creating an individualized Health (RE) Building program together for their specific goals, imbalances and areas of opportunities.

We run not just one test – as we want to be able to see the BIG picture in all the body systems as the body works together (as the orchestra or your car analogy). If one part is off or out of alignment, then everything else will eventually be impacted and out of balance. We will eventually experience “METABOLIC CHAOS®” if imbalances and “red flags” are ignored for too long. We need to take action and resolve our imbalances (root causes) so we are able to RESTORE the individual client back to their optimal self, so they THRIVE each day and regain their VITALITY.
In my coaching program, we choose three to five functional labs to get started then immediately start working on our foundations and the elements of “The WHOLESTIC Method”. NUTRITION is key… WHAT we eat, WHEN we eat, HOW we eat and WHY we eat. We focus on eating nutrient dense, organic, non-GMO foods that are right for your metabolic type, food sensitivities, genetics and ancestral background plus lifestyle/activity level. We also must work on proper digestion and breakdown of our foods with our eating habits and supplementing as needed with digestive enzymes, HCL Betaine and Ox Bile.
We are all unique bio-chemical individuals and we create a unique HEALTH (RE) Building protocol based on our intake forms and assessments but also the key labs tests as the following.
- DUTCH Complete Hormone Test
- Great Plains Organic Acids Test (OATS)
- Food Sensitivity Test
- Leaky Gut Assessment with Wheat ZOOMERS
- GI Map Test
- Microbiome test
How Leaky Gut is linked to Food Sensitivity (MRT)
- Food sensitivities are the main cause of symptoms associated with leaky gut.
- Food sensitivities create a vicious cycle in that they help maintain the reason for their development (the leaky gut) while being the direct cause of the various symptoms suffered.
- This vicious cycle can only end after carefully removing all sources of reactive foods and chemicals, which not only eliminates symptoms, but also allows the gut to finally heal.
- But this is easier said than done for a number of reasons: Food sensitivities are often dose-dependent, with symptom onset delayed by many hours, and there are usually many reactive foods, not just 1 or 2 as in food allergy.
- And just like each person has a unique fingerprint, both food sensitivity symptoms and trigger foods are different from one person to another.
- In other words, in two gluten sensitive people, gluten may cause digestive problems in one person and migraines in another.
- And in 10 migraine patients, there could be 10 different sets of trigger foods
- Because of this, obviously there is no one-size-fits-all diet.
To make matters even more challenging, that “healthy” salmon with all of those anti-inflammatory health benefits you read about and that you so desperately want for your own health, may actually be the cause of an inflammatory reaction that gives you diarrhea, fatigue or any symptom!
The unexpected and unfortunate truth is that even so-called healthy foods like salmon, blueberries, garlic, or broccoli can become triggers that lead to unwanted symptoms.
It’s a very challenging puzzle that requires an expert approach to figure it out.
Although research proves that leaky gut exists, there is no perfect test to diagnose it, diagnose its cause, or determine if a particular therapy is effective at treating it.
What is known is that diet and stress are two things that play a significant role in causing leaky gut.
It’s also known that certain supplements can help decrease inflammation in the gut and help heal the lining of the gut.
Therefore, an individually prescribed diet, stress reduction and supplement plan are a big part of the solution.
Monitoring symptom improvement is the best way to determine the effectiveness of therapy and the healing of your leaky gut.
Are you on a mission to get your body, energy and your vibrant life back?
Debbie helps driven, ambitious high performing individuals, who are trying to do all the “right” things to get help by investigating the WHOLE scene to reveal what is actually going on – so they can get their body and vibrant life back!
The struggle is real… and I have been there myself!
Debbie helps driven, ambitious, high performing individuals, who are trying to do all the “right” things, investigate what is actually going on “under the hood” to get their body and vibrant self-back. You have seen multiple doctors and experts, but they tell you everything is “normal” and there is nothing wrong with you. That was my experience. I refused to believe that “nothing is wrong with me” and this is part of “getting older”. This was not going to be the new me and stop me from investigating what was really going on from the inside out – under the hood.
You have a choice to take care of the WHOLE you and take ownership of your aging process. You may look healthy on the outside, but you may be unhealthy on the inside. We don’t know what is going on “under the hood” unless we investigate with functional lab tests, correlation and collect clues to find your missing pieces of your health puzzle back together again.
You don’t need to settle and blame the aging process- the struggle is real, and you are not alone. If you feel exhausted trying to do all the “right” things and still can’t feel, move, or look better then we need to take a different approach. Choose health. Be a part of the solution. Contact me here if you are ready to make a change.
Remember- the definition of Insanity is … “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
If you are stuck in the “cycle of trial and error” then it is time to take a different approach and look at the WHOLE person with “The WHOLESTIC Method” investigation coaching program if you want to REPAIR-REBUILD-RESTORE the WHOLE you to live your best life now.
