Diane is a registered dietician focused on Functional Medicine - a holistic, individualized approach to assessing, preventing, and treating complex chronic diseases. It recognizes that chronic disease almost always begins with a slow, declining function in one or more of the body’s systems. The functional medicine practitioner evaluates the interaction between each person’s environment, lifestyle, and genetic predisposition to assess where dysfunction has occurred. Functional medicine recognizes each person’s biochemical individuality; therefore, treatment is patient centered, versus disease centered. Through individualized nutrition, physical activity, supplementation (as needed), stress reduction, and reducing environmental toxins, optimal health is achieved.
