I’m thrilled to share that I’ve completed the GI Advanced Practice Module (APM) through The Institute for Functional Medicine! This APM is the third course I’ve taken in their rigorous curriculum toward becoming a Functional Medicine Certified Professional™.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn from leading educators in the field and connect with a vibrant community of practitioners. I look forward to applying this knowledge to support holistic, evidence-based care —both as faculty at Notre Dame of Maryland University and in my private nutrition practice.

I wanted to share this personal story on my wellness page since it’s related to nutrition. This week, my kids’ elementary school started a Share Table program in the cafeteria where unopened food that would have been thrown away is donated instead. These pictures are just HALF of the food I transported to the local food pantry. This program is a great way to reduce food waste and to help feed those in need. I’m hoping more schools will do this program too! Here’s the USDA site with more info: https://www.fns.usda.gov/cn/use-share-tables-child-nutrition-programs

Have you ever gotten your lab results back and been told everything is "normal," yet you still don't feel well? You're not alone.

The truth is, conventional lab ranges can be very wide. While falling within that range flags you as "normal," it doesn't mean your body is functioning at its best, most optimal level. This is where a functional lab analysis can make all the difference!

Using a functional lens, we look beyond the standard ranges to see where your body may be out of balance. Functional ranges are much narrower, based on the results of healthy people, and represent the sweet spot where your body truly thrives.

Understanding your lab results through this lens can empower you to make targeted dietary and lifestyle changes and address potential issues before they turn into a condition. It’s about taking control of your health and restoring balance in your body.

What’s in a number? Comprehensive lab work turns broad goals into a precise roadmap for success. Here are just a few markers we can measure to gain powerful insight into your body's response to your healthy habits:

📉Blood Sugar Markers: Beyond just limiting sugar, lab markers like Fasting Glucose or HbA1c provide measurable evidence of how well your approach is working. If the numbers aren't shifting, it's a clear signal to adjust your plan!
💊Micronutrient Status: Eating a healthy diet is great, but are you truly absorbing all the nutrients? Advanced tests like the NutrEval can pinpoint specific deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that might be impacting your energy levels and brain function.
🔥Inflammation Markers: You can't always see or feel chronic inflammation, but lab work can reveal this silent threat. Seeing markers like C-Reactive Protein decrease can provide powerful motivation that your anti-inflammatory diet and stress reduction habits are truly paying off.
💩Digestive Markers: An advanced stool test like the GI Effects can offer a detailed look into your gut's ecosystem, revealing imbalances that could be hindering nutrient absorption, skin issues, digestive discomfort.

These tests empower you to work with your body, not against it. It's about targeting your efforts where they'll have the biggest impact for real, lasting change! Read more in our latest blog post: https://www.wellnesswithelizabeth.com/post/the-power-of-data-how-lab-work-elevates-your-smart-goals
