This post deserves a permanent spot on the main grid š¤
Back in March, I quietly started my Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner training. I didnāt share much about it at first because I really wanted to focus on learning, doing the work and figuring out exactly how I wanted this next chapter to fit into what I already do.
For years, my focus has been skin. But the more Iāve learned, the more Iāve realized that what we see on the outside can be connected to so much more going on beneath the surface.
Soon Iāll be able to incorporate functional lab testing to look deeper into things like gut health, hormones, inflammation, nutrient status, food sensitivities and environmental exposuresāand help connect some of those dots.
Iām about halfway through the program now and still have work ahead of me, but Iām really excited about where this is going.
Functional wellness + skin health just makes sense to me. And it feels like a very natural next step for Face Lounge.
More to come š¤
