Mark Hyman, MD has been such an inspiration to me for so long, so I was thrilled when he was one of my teachers when I was in nutrition school at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Dr. Hyman is a functional medicine doctor, which means that he gets to the root of what’s causing a person’s illness, instead of just treating symptoms of a disease. In this way, Dr. Hyman and other functional medicine doctors are able to take into account everything that makes a person unique: genetics, diet, lifestyle, mental health, physical activity (or lack thereof), etc. By looking into all of these things, functional medicine doctors like Dr. Hyman can better help a person truly heal. Since we are all unique, it makes sense that we should have someone who takes a look at us, our environment, and our lives as a whole in order to better understand what’s making us sick and what can finally make us feel better. And that’s everything that I believe in as a Health Coach!

There is so much amazing material that Dr. Mark Hyman covers in the books that he has authored, including: The Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet: Activate Your Body’s Natural Ability to Burn Fat and Lose Weight Fast, The Blood Sugar Solution: The UltraHealthy Program for Losing Weight, Preventing Disease, and Feeling Great Now!, The UltraSimple Diet: Kick-Start Your Metabolism and Safely Lose Up to 10 Pounds in 7 Days, and more. I also highly recommend browsing through his website and reading through the many articles that he has written. I love that he believes in providing people with tons of information on nutrition and health; he breaks down information so that it’s easy to understand and he’s covered so many topics, so it’s easy to find something that will benefit you on your journey to wellness.

I could go on and on about how much I appreciate all the work that he does, but I’ll let you discover and re-discover for yourself why Dr. Hyman is truly a gift to us. What’s even more inspiring to me is how much he trusts and advocates for Health Coaches! Take a look at the video posted below to see why Dr. Mark Hyman recommends working with a Health Coach! And then give me a call so we can get you started on your free initial consultation 🙂 I went to nutrition school because I wanted to help more people feel better. And I want to help you, too. It’s time for you to heal, feel amazing, and love yourself and your life. You deserve to heal.
