I have been working with this patient for under a year. They had a chronic medical condition that required frequent blood tests for monitoring, which were anxiety-provoking. They also needed better control of their blood pressure.
We worked on nutritional interventions, incorporating daily practices like breath-work and mindfulness, a comprehensive exercise prescription, and a focus on sleep. We also included supplements and botanicals in a cautious manner, keeping their medical condition in mind. Additionally, we utilized continuous glucose monitoring.
The patient shared that our work together, along with the insights from the continuous glucose monitor, helped them understand how their body’s metabolism functions. This understanding reinforced healthy food choices—for instance, opting for a hearty salad alongside one slice of pizza rather than consuming three slices.
