17 Functional Nutrition Strategies We Use:

We Utilize Functional Strategies for Improving Cardio-Metabolic Resilience by Addressing the Following:

Decrease body fat especially in the abdominal region
Improve the bodies ability to use insulin
Reduce inflammatory signaling
Protect and improving pancreatic beta cell functioning (key for glucose management)
Reduce postprandial hyper-insulinemia
Reduce lipoprotein atherogenicity
Improve endothelial function
Reducing glycation and the formation and accumulation of advanced glycation endproducts (In Glycation sugars bind to proteins. The proteins then change structure and loose function).
Modulate and balance coagulation (clotting) capacity
Improve mitochondrial efficiency (the body's ability to produce and use energy)
Reduce oxidative burden (Oxidative stress is an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in your body).
Restore metabolically favorable gut microbiota
Reduce circulating free fatty acids
Improve appropriate endocrine signaling
Modulate inappropriate HPA Axis regulation and cortisol burden (Manage chronic Stress).
Maintain and improve kidney metabolic capacity
Maintain or improve Circadian Alignment
