Kimberly Young Consulting, LLC Certified Nutrition Specialist
Certified Sports Nutrition Coach
Licensed Dietician Nutritionist True health and wellness begins from within.

Nutrition therapy from a functional approach is focused on the concept that proper diet and nutrition each play a key role in the prevention and the improvement of common conditions as well as chronic diseases. The food we consume is more than the sum of its nutrients and can be an incremental aspect of healing, wellness and an improved quality of life. Whether your goals include weight management

, wellness and disease prevention or optimal sports performance, I will work with you to create an integrative plan that fits your lifestyle while also meeting your unique nutritional needs. This includes a focus on dietary choices, food sensitivities and triggers, stress management and detoxification. For you, this can mean successful weight management, ending digestive irregularity, fluctuations in blood sugar, and energy deficiencies. It can mean proactively lowering your risk of nutritional deficiencies, type II diabetes, and hypertension.

Creatine is mostly found in animal proteins like red meat, fish, and lean meat. A vital energy carrier, creatine ensures ATP availability during high-intensity, intermittent anaerobic or dynamic exercise. Between workouts and on rest days, creatine helps muscles synthesize new protein, facilitating gains in muscle strength, power and size. 

Supplementing can be beneficial for some people but it’s certainly not required to build muscle and/or get stronger. It’s a tool in the arsenal along with diet and weight training.  

Choose Creatine Monohydrate with a strong allergen panel (dairy/milk free, gluten free, soy free, non gmo) and preferably NSF rated. The cleaner the fuel the better the burn in my opinion.

Fun fact: No hard science yet but research investigating the  potential for creatine supplementation to improve cognitive processing, especially in conditions characterized by brain creatine deficits, which could be induced by acute stressors (e.g., exercise, sleep deprivation) or chronic, pathologic conditions (e.g., creatine synthesis enzyme deficiencies, mild traumatic brain injury, aging, Alzheimer’s disease, depression) is ongoing.

There are plenty of benefits to quitting alcohol or even limiting your intake. Set yourself up for success by getting ready now.  It’s important to switch your rituals related to drinking.  Pour out the opened bottles.  Stock up on alternatives like sparkling water, herbal teas, spa water with fresh lemons or cucumber.  Something a little more special than just plain water.  Lots of non alcoholic options too. No & Low is a personal favorite.

Having a reliable accountablity partner can be super helpful. Be mindful that sometimes that’s a challenge if you live with that person. Take it one day at a time-be sure to write down the positives.

Let me know if I can help- best accountability partner ever 😊

Chronic diseases or autoimmune diseases are the most obvious risk factors for impaired immunity- true. Lowered immune status also makes you more susceptible to colds, viruses, food borne illnesses and skin infections (think herpes, acne, rosacea, psoriasis).

Immune cells in the gut interact with the microbiome, the diverse array of bacteria and fungi that live in the gastrointestinal tract and are directly influenced by the diet and lifestyle. The foods we eat affect the diversity and composition of bacteria in the gut, which in turn affect immune cells.
Sure there is ongoing research about the benefits of pre and probiotics. Prebiotics provide “food” meant to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut, while probiotics are live good bacteria. Keep in mind that people who have a severe illness or a weakened immune system should not take probiotics. Also, not all probiotic supplements are necessary or beneficial for your health. 

A food first approach is your best line of defense.

Are the holidays your habitual “eating season”?Traditions, happy hours and lots of emotions. The eating queues and pressure are all around. Many reasons to be thankful too. Try not to get too focused on what you eat on the special occasions. Start thinking about what you can do after.  Allow yourself to enjoy the celebratory food but try not to over eat and drink.  Make plans to exercise the day after and to eat a clean diet. You are not obligated to eat all the leftovers. One day of eating your favorite comfort food with friends and family is good for your soul- so it staying on track with your personal goals.  

Don’t have a plan or overwhelmed with what to do next?  Book a session- YES the week of Thanksgiving.  I can help- promise.

Small changes often have the power to create significant impacts over time. Don’t be afraid to mix things up. Adjusting macros, food sequencing- taking a look at nutrient density can have a profound impact on energy levels during workouts, immunity and yes your weight too.

Ever heard of a “margarita burn“… 🤔 No joke!Phytophotodermatitis is a skin reaction that starts with a painful rash and typically only appears where the plant substance made contact with your skin (or your child’s skin). Summer is HOT! Sweating can make it worse. Let’s call this one definitely GTK! 🙌🏻
