Welcome Olivia Hedlund! She is a Functional Nutritional Therapist. The role of a Functional Nutritional Therapist is to use food, lifestyle and specific supplementation to heal the body. The main foundations of her practice are nutrition, digestion, hydration, blood sugar regulation and fatty acid/mineral balance.
In this episode we discuss what functional foods are, how to use food as medicine, superfoods, how to navigate creating healthy eating habits without restriction and what we can do in our daily lives to understand the importance of food as functional medicine.
Her practice focuses on addressing the root causes to health issues in order to improve your well-being.
She is a wealth of information not only from her extensive education in the world of nutrition but her personal experiences and journey healing her own body.
