How Can Functional Nutrition Help Gut Health Disorders?
Functional nutrition is an approach to wellness that focus on identifying and resolving the root cause of disease through food. Functional nutrition practitioners spend significantly more time with their patients, listening to their histories and looking at the interactions among genetic, environmental, nutrition and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic disease.
In this way, functional nutrition supports the unique expression of health and vitality for each individual.
It is also convenient, compassionate, and effective care. We offer our programs via telemedicine, which lets you visit your dietitian and receive care without an in-person office visit. Telehealth is done primarily online with internet access on your computer, tablet, or smartphone through video conferences and internet phone calls.

Resolve Gut Disorders By Addressing the Root Cause of the Problem – Not Covering Up Symptoms with Drugs!
Using Tasha’s proven blueprint and education-based curriculum, you will harness simple, self-care practices and changes of habit that will lead to lifelong lifestyle transformations. Tasha’s proven blueprint covers the five essential keys to resolving underlying stressors, sickness, and poor digestive health – nutrition, movement, detox, hormone balance, and mentorship.
Our health and well-being are heavily influenced by the physical, chemical, and emotional stressors that we face daily. These chronic stressors lead to the breakdown of health, including our nervous, endocrine, digestive, and cardiovascular systems. Our body systems were designed to work synergistically, and everybody is unique and has its own story- therefore, we need to treat the person as a whole. Proper testing is crucial to understanding why you’re suffering from your gut health disorder.

Testimonials from our clients
"I started this journey on January 27, 2022, it’s been hard but also so rewarding! I could never lose weight no matter how hard I tried, so I reached out to Tasha for some help. This program is so good! All the coaches are awesome and the videos and modules are so easy to follow and informative! In 3 months, I have lost 21 pounds, but I also have more energy and more confidence!"
"Tasha has made a lifelong change in my eating habits! I followed her recommendations exactly for two months and lost 25 pounds! The puffiness in my body went away by the fourth day and my reflux problems were profoundly diminished! I was having restless legs and fluttering in my chest at night during rest and all of that disappeared! It is the best thing I have ever done for myself! I highly recommend tasha!❤️❤️"
"After two months with Tasha, I had a great appointment with my doctor on Thursday. She was very pleased with my progress. According to her records my A1C dropped from 7.5 to 5.9 and I lost 15 lbs since they weighed me last summer! She agreed to take me off of 1 one my diabetic meds!!"
"I always thought of myself as a fairly healthy person. For the majority of my life I maintained a reasonable weight, ate a lot of fruits and vegetables, avoided overindulging in sweets and alcohol, and exercised pretty regularly. I was not great at stress management which mostly consisted of pretending everything was fine, and I wasn’t great at selfcare. This all changed as I turned 50, my “willpower” started to fail me. Soon the sugar cravings started, not the I’d like that frosted cookie kind, the if I don’t eat that frosted cookie, I will die, kind of cravings. I was aware of the right way to eat, but I was not able to stick with it, what was wrong with me, why was I failing I just needed to try harder. I saw a seminar advertisement on Facebook regarding hormone imbalance and it sounded like something I needed to participate in. At this seminar, I got an introduction into what Elevated Nutrition 406 was all about. I joined and my true transformation began. I learned that maybe my problem was not just that my will power was weak, but that my gut was not as healthy as I had thought, and my hormones were not balanced. For me the program has been relatively easy to follow, and slow progress helps to truly make lifelong changes, additionally the program is not about eating only certain foods and depriving yourself of the things that you love. But it is about learning what your body can tolerate.
The benefits I have received so far are, losing 8 pounds, and three inches from my waste and 3 inches from my hips. More importantly, I no longer crave sweets, I am no longer hungry 24/7, I feel satisfied after eating a meal and do not feel starving with in a short time. My skin, hair and nails are noticeably better, and I no longer experience bathroom issues. But the absolute best result and why I will continue this for the rest of my life is, I no longer live in a fight or flight state. I am able to center myself with deep breathing as soon as I feel myself getting anxious. I have learning still to do, I feel growing and improving as a lifelong pursuit, not a temporary state."
