Ep 82. What is functional nutrition and why you should care?
Description
Episode Description
Functional nutrition goes beyond counting calories or following food pyramids. It’s not about rigid food rules or trendy protocols.
It’s about understanding how food affects your body at a systems level — your hormones, gut, metabolism, nervous system, and immune response — and using that information to make targeted, sustainable decisions.
In this episode, I break down what functional nutrition actually is, what it is not, and why so many people stay stuck when they focus on food choices without understanding physiology.
If you’ve ever done “all the right things” and still felt off, this conversation will help connect the dots.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
What functional nutrition really means (without the fluff)
How it differs from calorie counting or generalized nutrition advice
Why two people can eat the same way and have very different outcomes
How symptoms, labs, and intake data work together
Why food alone isn’t always the fix — but it’s always part of the picture
