Feeling puffy? Achy? Foggy? You might just be inflamed…

…and FYI, the root cause of systemic inflammation is often traced to harmful, overgrowing, inflammatory bacteria within the digestive tract😩

If you’ve got a gut feeling that this is the case for you, DM me to set up a discovery call for some FREE perspective …because…there is a good chance that inflammation is to blame for those funky signs your body has been sending!

In the meantime, if you want sustainable results, don’t just focus on eating an “anti-inflammatory diet”—eat inflammation fighting foods EVERY DAY like leafy greens, beets, pomegranates, apples, blueberries, peaches, broccoli, spinach, almonds, flax seeds, cinnamon, coffee, dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao), olives, olive oil, wild-caught salmon, walnuts, chia seeds, turmeric, ginger, garlic, green tea, avocado oil, ghee + coconut oil and REDUCE ALL FOODS that tend to be inflammatory such as alcohol, sugar + gluten🚫

The signs are there…and it’s your job to tune-in and make appropriate tweaks to your lifestyle that decrease inflammation levels

“Why am I always hungry?”

Your hunger hormones may be in the driver’s seat🚘and they’re steering you toward cravings for comfort foods, energy crashes, and…belly fat (in my case anyway)

Here’s the real reason it’s happening (and how to take back the wheel)⤵️⤵️

→ Sleep less = crave more
→ Chronic stress = more ghrelin
→ Blood sugar spikes = rebound hunger
→ Processed food = low GLP-1

✨Swipe through to see how consistent habits will help you control your hunger hormones naturally💫

Your roadmap to hormone health starts here⤵️⤵️⤵️

📍First stop: Digestive function
If you’re dealing with stubborn weight gain, constipation, breakouts, or anxiety—ask yourself THIS first: “Am I actually digesting my food?” Poor digestion or gut imbalances like pathogenic overgrowths often show up as hormonal symptoms

📍Next turn: Hormones
Insomnia, mood swings, low libido, fatigue + brain fog, dry or blemished skin? These are classic signs your hormones are off (P.S. your gut might be to blame)

📍Checkpoint: Know the stats
→ 80% of women have a hormonal imbalance
→ 70% of men experience hormonal decline by age 70
Just because it’s common doesn’t mean it’s normal. These are “check engine” signals from your body—it’s up to you to listen + address

📍Detour alert: Skip the short cuts…unless
Until you have your foundational habits in-place, don’t skip to bioindentical hormone creams or pills—as they rarely address the root cause. True healing? It’s an inside job—starting with your plate and your daily habits

📍Final destination: Root cause clarity
With me as your root cause investigator + simple at-home testing (stool, saliva or urine), we map out what’s really going on—then use food, supplements + lifestyle to:
→ Reset your energy
→ Sleep deeper
→ Improve skin
→ Stabilize mood
→ Maintain your optimal weight

Eat Better. Feel Better.

Hi! I’m Christina Shadle an NTA-certified Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (FNTP) based in Los Angeles, CA. I specialize in empowering my clients to get in the kitchen and fuel their health with real food and heal through simple lifestyle changes. I also have a degree in communication with concentrated studies in speech from California State University, Chico and am a recovering Type-A public relations professional with a whole host of irritable bowel issues myself. Outside of office hours and wellness research, you can usually find me taking a yoga or pilates class, attending concerts, or traveling with friends.

I work with clients locally and virtually all over the globe and am also the co-creator of Mindful Munchies, a munchie-making blog dedicated to empowering those who “don’t have time to cook” get in the kitchen and discover how simple it is to prepare healthy swaps to cure the junk food cravings that often derail our health.

As your FNTP…

I discover the root causes of your symptoms and work to help balance your foundations using nutrition and lifestyle recommendations.
