FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • If you are wanting to improve your blood sugar balance in a sustainable, root-cause way, and are willing to put in the work, if you follow the steps, you will get there. Many times though, this is not always about the program, but more about your confidence that you can do it. And I totally get this because I’ve been in your shoes struggling not knowing what or who to trust.

    We have a team of coaches to support you at every step of the way so that if and when you do get stuck, you’re never going to be without support to help you reach your health goals. If you have some questions on this, please fill out the form below and request a 20 minute chat and we can also talk through this to answer your questions or concerns!

  • Not a problem! I do have a few other options that I’ve used for past clients to help them financially. When you fill out the form below, please mention you would need other financial options and we can discuss what may work best for you.

  • Totally hear you on this! Most of the clients that come to me as well have also tried things before whether that be naturopaths, diets, supplement protocols, and/or testing.

    One of the first things that we do in our program is get to know you and explore what things you’ve tried before, what worked, what didn’t, and why. The reason being is there’s no point to repeating the exact things that haven’t worked for you in the past. At the same time, if you thought about it, there’s probably some things in your past that actually have been beneficial. We want to explore it all to be able to best support you moving forward.

    If you are willing to not have a past experience or experiences define your success moving forward, working through these is actually a very important part of getting where you want to go!

  • This program isn't exclusive to those with type 1 diabetes. My program offers a personalized, balanced, and root-cause approach to diet and lifestyle to improve your body’s ability to balance blood sugar from within, which can help in eliminating hypoglycemia and reversing pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes.

  • Yes, we provide lab interpretations of past lab work and for the clients that can benefit, provide complementary HTMA and Full Monty panel testing that can help improve blood sugar balance.

  • We specialize in helping clients improve their blood sugar control within so they have to rely less on external things like medications or supplements, I cannot make you a promise that you’ll get off insulin or medication because it can depend on how long you’ve been on them and your individual ability to implement strategies.

    But what I can say is we’re going to help you fill in the nutrition and lifestyle gaps to address the real reasons why your blood sugar is imbalanced so that perhaps between you and your doctor, you can reduce your reliance on insulin or medication because you’re going to have better control of your blood sugar like we’ve done for our other clients.

  • Not at this time. However, I can submit what’s called a Superbill on your behalf, which you can take to your insurance company to see if you can get some reimbursement, which clients have had success with.

  • Yes, I do! I couldn’t guarantee that card would work because it ultimately depends on your plan, but I can say many of my clients have had success using these funds for coaching.

  • Yes, as long as you can speak English, me and my team have worked with clients in countries, including Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Mexico, Canada, Singapore, South Africa, etc.

  • While these can be starting points, for most these are going to be merely band-aids and take no consideration of what your individual body needs on a day in and day out basis. Nutrition isn't about eating "healthy" or "low carb", it's about learning how to eat in a way that supports your body to feel it's best, which naturally creates better blood sugar.

  • The thing about supplements (assuming they are the right ones for you based on testing) is that they typically don’t work well when you haven’t built your nutritional foundation.

    I compare it to gears in a clock or watch. One gear turns the next and that gear turns the watch hand. Nutrients that are in supplements work together, not in isolation, so if you’re getting a ton through a supplement, but missing others (in this case other gears), you won’t see a benefit.

    The good things about making root cause, sustainable changes is that they require less supplementation and personally, I find clients have more success the less supplemets that they take.

  • Just like most things, you get out what you put in. If you’re willing to show up to calls, ask questions, and put your full effort into the goals that we both agree upon in each session, you’ll get to where you want to be with your health.
