As I sit in the Ft. Lauderdale Airport, waiting for my flight back to Albuquerque, I'm extremely excited. Excited, of course, to get home to my family, and also to share and apply the wealth of knowledge I gained over the weekend from the Functional Nutrition Course from Institute for Functional Medicine.
I am so happy to have found a group of like-minded individuals who want to see doctors and nutritionists (and other health care professionals) working together to help patients heal and approaching patient care with a holistic and evidence-based view. This weekend, I met MDs, NDs, RDs, CCNs, RNs, PhDs and Lifestyle Educators who all agree that diet and lifestyle should be at the core of ALL treatment plans. I deepened my physical nutrition assessment skills and coaching skills and also learned more about functional lab testing and using nutritional supplements & medical foods along with a Core Food Plan to help prevent and reverse many common ailments and forms of chronic disease. To name a few, we discussed the aforementioned in relation to Cardiovascular Disease, Insulin Resistance, Type II Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Multiple Sclerosis and neurodegenerative diseases, Chronic Fatigue, Obesity and many more.
I am bursting at the seams with new knowledge and cannot wait to get back to my patients and clients at my jobs in clinical and private settings.
Blessings and Good Health!
