Functional Nutrition
Let’s start a healthy relationship.
Functional Nutrition
Daily nutritional choices can greatly impact your overall wellness. In order to achieve optimal health, your lifestyle choices and diet need to be altered to fit your specific needs. More and more frequently, a new fad diet is popping up and promising to be the only way you can be the healthiest version of yourself. In reality, these fad diets are ultra restrictive and can be doing more harm than good. At R3 Health, our team of diet and lifestyle experts understand that your nutritional needs are unique and our wide variety of nutrition services reflect this.
Lifestyle Counseling and Nutrient Correction
Why do I need a dietitian, you might be wondering? To put it simply, everyone can benefit from some type of nutrient correction, either small or large. The food that you consume is what your body uses as fuel to perform the tasks needed to maintain life. If you are not eating specifically for your needs, your body will not function optimally irregardless of any program we put you on at R3 Health.
Implementing dietary changes might be necessary if some biomarkers such as cholesterol, glucose, or inflammatory markers came back outside of optimal ranges. Working with our dietitian to implement realistic changes specifically based on your body’s needs can help get irregular lab results trending in a more positive, healthy direction.
Symptoms of Chronic GI issues can also be improved by working with our dietitian. By working on minimizing the intake of triggering foods and implementing reparative supplements, our nutrition team aims to assist GI patients in absorbing nutrients and improving their quality of life.
Advanced Nutritional Testing
In certain circumstances, lifestyle counseling and nutrition corrections might require advanced testing to best tailor dietary recommendations. In scenarios like this, our team utilizes Food Allergy and Sensitivity Testing and GI Effects to find root causes for dietary irritations and GI abnormalities.
GI Effects
For our patients with more complicated GI issues such as diarrhea or excessive bloat/gas feel, our team will recommend the Genova GI Effects comprehensive stool test. This 1-day or 3-day test analyzes your gut microbiome along with markers of digestion, absorption, inflammation, and a full parasitology report and stool culture to which allows our medical team to identify issues potentially causing your GI complications.
Food Allergy and Sensitivity Test
The food allergy and sensitivity test (FAST) tests for immune-mediated responses in your blood to over 80 different food proteins. When reviewing the results of this test, our dietitian is looking for elevated antibody markers that would indicate an unnatural response to the food from your cells. These antibodies can indicate a true food allergy or a sensitivity that causes unwanted and uncomfortable symptoms like abdominal pain, eczema, brain fog, and headaches.
Weight Management
Whether your goals are to lose or gain weight, build muscle, or maintain your current body composition, our team is here to help! Our registered dietitian will work with you to create an individualized nutrition care plan that is tailored towards you and your lifestyle in a judgment-free environment.
