☑️ Drop stubborn body fat
☑️ Reverse insulin resistance
☑️ Improve overall metabolic health
☑️ Reduce joint and body pains
☑️ Boost energy naturally
without unnecessary medications or overly strict diets.
You've already tried:
❌ Eliminating entire food groups
❌ Eating less or not at all
❌ Eating "clean"
But you're still stuck, frustrated and wondering why nothing is working.
It's not your fault. These methods will always fail you because:
❗️ They only focus on food (but insulin resistance is about more than just diet).
❗️ You have hidden metabolic blockers you don't even realize are keeping you stuck.
❗️ You don't have a clear plan - simply guessing at your real problems and the solutions.
This is a complete system designed to get to the true underlying cause of your persistent health challenges so you can lose stubborn weight, restore energy and take back control over your health.
✅ Quality nutrients
✅ Therapeutic nutrition
✅ Appropriate exercise & physical movement
✅ Great sleep (quality, quantity, and timing)
✅ Stress handling and resilience
✅ Functioning detoxification and elimination systems
✅ Resolution of underlying infections
Just to name a few...
Unlike programs that rely on trial and error or one-size-fits-all plans, this is a science-backed system based on real data so you can track measurable improvements.
We evaluate lab results you already have and combine them with new lab tests and data collected from you now.
Even if everything appears "normal", there is a lot of information we can gather on subtle imbalances and trends long before they become diseases.
This informs us where you might have nutrient deficiencies, underlying infections, simmering inflammation, or even autoimmune challenges contributing to your current symptoms.
At a minimum, I recommend a comprehensive blood chemistry panel. Combined this data will allow us to create a protocol to give your gut a break, reduce inflammation and take the stress off of your immune system.
[This is much more detailed than the blood work your doctor runs.]
A healthy and calm system can release excess weight, improve energy naturally and repair existing damage.
No more guessing. No more frustration. We take a data-driven approach so your plan is customized for YOUR body right now.
→ It’s not about having the “right” genetics.
→ It doesn’t have to be complicated.
→ It can be personalized, based on your data.
→ And you can maintain those amazing results for life.
I’m Andrea Nicholson, a former crime scene investigator, turned Functional Health Practitioner, dedicated to helping people like you identify and eliminate the cause of fatigue, stubborn weight, digestive issues, and inflammation.
With my unique blend of investigative expertise and a functional approach, I offer personalized health consultations designed to address your specific needs.
I’ll be your personal Functional Health Investigator!
🚫 No calorie counting
🚫 No arbitrary food eliminations
🚫 No complicated meal plans
This isn’t another "diet."
This is a science-backed, personalized protocol that helps men and women address the underlying imbalances in order to lose stubborn weight, and regain energy—without medications or restrictive diets.
We take the guesswork out of healing by tracking real health markers so you can SEE and FEEL your body improving.
It all begins with a free, no-obligation discovery call.
I do not accept insurance. Depending on your plan, you may be able to use HSA money for my services.
Insurance most often doesn't cover the type of work we do as functional practitioners. Insurance covers tests and medications deemed medically necessary for diagnosis and treatment of disease. We are not looking to diagnose or treat a disease with this process...but rather are looking for imbalances that can be addressed with diet and lifestyle factors.
Yes! Thanks to the power of technology, my practice is entirely virtual. All sessions are conducted via phone or video call. I work with clients from all over the US and abroad.
Nutrition is one vital aspect to achieving ideal health. However, no matter how great someone’s diet is, if they’re being drained by stress load or living in a toxic environment, the body won’t rebalance. Throughout this process, we will focus on all aspects of health.
I will not provide a specific meal plan. Meal plans don’t work. If they did, everyone would already have the perfect plan. Most people never follow them and they don’t teach you WHY to eat those specific foods. They merely make you dependent on me and the meal plan. That is not a sustainable way to lasting health.
I’d rather teach you how to create your own plan, so you never need to rely on anyone else to tell you what to do. I will give you the tools and resources you need to create that plan for yourself. I want to enlighten, empower, and educate you to take control over your own health.
Everyone’s journey is unique to them. Many clients see rapid relief from their most frustrating symptoms, true healing takes time. Some clients are able to resolve their underlying causes in a couple of months, others can take years of unraveling and repair. These disease dynamics don't develop over night and they take time to fully heal as well. The process is fully customized to you – so the speed of the protocol depends on your current health, goals, and your willingness/ability to implement the strategies. The length of healing time varies by your unique situation.
You don't have to do anything. I simply make recommendations. You get to decide for yourself what path you'd like to take.
Most likely I will recommend the temporary use of therapeutic supplementation as a part of your protocol to provide rapid relief and aid in the healing process. Those recommendations will come directly from the data gathered from you and your functional lab test results and/or technologies.
Most of the recommended supplements will be taken for a short period of time in an effort to rebalance your body. I only ever recommend pharmaceutical-grade supplements and rigorously tested products. I am not affiliated with any specific manufacturer, so I recommend the best of multiple companies for your unique needs.
It is entirely different and complementary!
I am not a medical professional and as such, I do not diagnose, treat, or prescribe medications.
My protocols are focused on empowering you to optimize your health through targeted nutrition, proper physical movement, quality rest, managing stressors, and creating an overall healthy life.
You’ll have SO MUCH more access to me than you’ll ever have with your doctor, so you’ll get your questions answered, understand your lab results, and be a part of developing the perfect plan of action for YOU.
