​Let's start by revisiting the race car analogy.  Any form of fuel will power that car across the finish line, but only the best fuel will allow it to win the race.  If you haven't guessed yet, YOU are the race car!  You may have even heard the saying "Your body is a temple."  My goal, and that of nutritional therapy as a whole is to fill that temple with wholesome, nutritious, and most importantly delicious foods.  That is the foundation of our optimal health.  Just as a strong foundation supports the temple, a weak foundation can set us up for disaster.  An overwhelming majority of people fill their days and stomachs with empty calories.  You can't open a magazine, turn on the TV, or walk down a grocery aisle without being bombarded with ads for soda, candy, and processed ready to go into the microwave dinners.  When was the last time an ad for tomatoes and spinach ran during the Superbowl?  All of those empty calories make us feel great for an hour but leave us feeling sluggish and craving the same salts and sugars hours later.  Every day our bodies ride a roller coaster of hormones and sugar that negatively impact our sleep quality, appearance, mood, and regulation of important metabolic functions.  Couple this with our hectic lives and the stress we deal with on a day to day basis and what you're left with is a tired, cranky, unhappy version of ourselves.  Despite this, our bodies are amazingly resilient and always put up a good fight in our name.  It's my job, and privilege, to help you listen to your body and fuel your winning race.
