SHORT DISCLAIMER
This information is not meant as medical or nutritional advice and should not be taken as such. Always check with your qualified healthcare professional before incorporating new supplements or nutritional changes into your routine. A Primal Health Coach (PHC), Functional Blood Work Certification Coach (FBWC), and Toxin and Detox Certification Coach (TDCC) is trained to evaluate nutritional needs and make recommendations for dietary changes and nutritional supplements. A PHC, FBWC, TDCC is unable to diagnose, treat, or cure any disease or medical condition. I cannot guarantee any specific result from recommendations as we are all bio-individually different. If you are under the care of a healthcare provider, it is important that you contact them and alert them to any changes in your lifestyle in regards to nutrition and supplements. A health coach may be a beneficial addition to more traditional care, and it may also alter your need for medication, so it is important you always keep your physician informed of changes in your nutritional program.
