Diana came to Sea + Spruce Nutrition feeling like her body had become a bit of a stranger to her. She was dealing with bloating, poor sleep, fatigue, and brain fog, and knew something wasn’t quite right.

Through the process, she not only started feeling better, but also learned how things like nutrition, supplements, rest, and stress management work together to support her health.

One of the most powerful things she shared was this:

“It can feel really lonely and isolating… but you’re not alone.”

We’re so grateful Diana trusted us with her health journey and allowed us to support her along the way 💛

If you’ve been feeling frustrated with symptoms and aren’t sure where to start, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

“What do you actually mean by gut health?”

When we talk about gut health, we’re really talking about the gut microbiome — the community of microorganisms living in your digestive tract, especially in your intestines + colon.

These microbes influence far more than digestion. They can affect things like:

• Nutrient absorption
• Brain chemistry and neurotransmitters
• Hormone balance
• Immune function

I often like to think of the gut microbiome as the soil of the body. When the soil is healthy and balanced, the rest of the system has a much better chance of thriving.

If you’ve never taken a deeper look at your digestive health and are curious what might be going on beneath the surface, more comprehensive testing can sometimes provide helpful insights.

Share this with someone who’s working on improving their gut health.

Comment “DETECTIVE” and we’ll send you the details for The Digestion Detective Solution™ a 90-day program designed to uncover the real reason behind your bloating, fatigue, and unpredictable digestion.

If you’re tired of feeling bloated after healthy meals, crashing mid-afternoon, and hearing that your labs are “normal” when you know something isn’t right… this is where we finally start connecting the dots. No more guessing. No more random gut hacks. Just a clear plan to help your body start working with you again.

We've had the opportunity to help 100s of people feel better in their bodies ❤️

Hi, I’m Christina Stapke, integrative and functional dietitian and founder of Sea + Spruce Nutrition.

For the past 7+ years, our team has helped hundreds of clients feel better in their bodies using a root-cause, functional approach to nutrition and health.

Many of the people we work with feel frustrated and stuck — their labs are “normal,” but they’re still dealing with symptoms like low energy, digestive issues, or hormone imbalances.

I actually found my way into this field because I experienced the same thing.

After struggling with my own health symptoms and not getting clear answers, I discovered functional nutrition and medicine- and it completely changed how I understood my health.

Now my mission is simple: help others feel better in their bodies too.

If you’re in your 30s or 40s and feeling "unlike yourself," you aren't imagining the shift. Whether it’s the first signs of perimenopause, a struggle with PCOS, or frustration with fertility, your body is trying to tell you something... it might just be hard to read using standard testing.

Most women are told to "just deal with it."

At Sea + Spruce, we say: Let’s decode it.

Our 1:1 Decode Your Hormones program is a 3-month intensive led by Andrea Assouad, MS, CNS, CN.

We move past the surface level to help you understand how estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormones, insulin, and cortisol are impacting your daily life.

This is for you if:

✔️ You’ve had a hormone panel but have no idea what the next step is.

✔️ You’re struggling with mood swings, brain fog, or midnight energy crashes.

✔️ You want a proactive, natural strategy to support your body’s next chapter.

You don’t have to navigate these shifts alone. Let’s get you back to feeling like yourself.

Comment “DECODE” and we’ll DM you the details for Decode Your Hormones — the program designed to help you understand what your hormones are actually trying to tell you. If you’re dealing with mood swings, stubborn weight, fatigue, or feeling “off” in your body, your hormones may be sending signals you’ve never been taught how to read.

This program helps connect the dots so you can finally understand what’s going on — and what to do next.

Think of these signs as the "Check Engine Light" on your car's dashboard.

You wouldn't just put a piece of tape over the light and keep driving, right?

(Okay, maybe some of us would depending on the day...😅)

Yet, that's exactly what we tend to do when we ignore bloating, cover up skin issues with makeup, or down caffeine to fight fatigue.

If this is you- I see you. I've 1000% been there. Life can be A LOT and sometimes it's necessary to temporarily ignore these symptoms/push them to the back burner...but we can't ignore them forever if we want to prevent more severe health issues > LINKS IN BIO

Our tests look at the data that your standard labs miss. We uncover the specific imbalances that are driving your bloating, energy crashes, and hormonal shifts.

More importantly, we use this data to create a practical plan together so you can start feeling better asap 😍

It’s not about a "quick-fix" food list or a gut hack. It's about using specialty labs to identify exactly what your body needs to thrive, and not just to survive (barely!)

Your body doesn’t have a voice, so it uses hormones + symptoms to communicate with you.

Hormones are the managers of our internal ecosystem. When they are in sync, we feel energized, calm, and comfortable.

But when the ecosystem is out of balance, whether from gut issues, stress, or poor sleep, these messengers start sending us "SOS" signals in the form of bloating, fatigue, and mood swings.

At Sea + Spruce, we don’t just treat the symptoms; we investigate the root cause to help your managers get back to work.

Which of these messengers is sending you an "SOS" right now?

Your body isn't “just tired.”

When your natural detox pathways (like your liver, gut, and kidneys) get backed up, it doesn’t always show up as a major illness.

More often it looks like “random” joint pain, skin flares, indigestion, or brain fog that makes it harder to focus at work or be fully present with your family.

Standard labs often aren’t designed to catch these kinds of functional slowdowns. That’s where targeted nutrition and lifestyle support can help.

The Refresh & Recharge Detox™ is a 12-day program designed to support your body’s natural detox pathways using a science-backed, food-first approach.

No extremes or complicated protocols. Just practical habits that help your body do what it’s already designed to do.

Ready to start your reset? Let’s help you get your energy back.

The grocery store can be our best pharmacy ❤️ Instead of just managing symptoms like bloating and fatigue, we can use specific foods to communicate with our body and address root causes.

Here are 11 functional foods and what they are doing for your body:

🫚 1- Ginger is good for stimulating motility and reducing bloating.

🌿 2-Fennel is good for relaxing digestive spasms after a meal.

🍲 3-Bone Broth is good for soothing and repairing the gut lining.

🥑 4-Avocado feeds good gut bacteria.

🌰 5-Nuts are good for magnesium to support regular bowel movements (most need supplements though!)

🍣 6-Wild Caught Salmon is good for omega-3s to lower systemic inflammation.

🧡 7-Turmeric is good for supporting liver detoxification pathways.

🦪 8- Oysters are one of the most potent sources of zinc. Zinc is critical for a healthy gut barrier.

🫐 9-Berries are good for antioxidants to fight cellular stress.

🍋 10-Warm Lemon Water is good for priming stomach acid for better digestion.

🥦 11- Broccoli sprouts/microgreens are a potent source of sulforaphone, important for liver- supporting important detox pathways.

Using food as healing medicine is about balance and understanding your unique ecosystem.

POV: You realize your body has its own happiness chemistry.

Life is complicated.

Stress, responsibilities, hormones, and what’s happening in the world all shape how we feel. Happiness isn’t something we can just flip on.

But your body does have built-in chemistry that supports things like motivation, connection, calm, and joy.

Dopamine. Serotonin. Endorphins. Oxytocin.

These are both hormones and neurotransmitters that help regulate mood, energy, and how we experience pleasure and connection.

And just like any system in the body, they rely on the right building blocks-nutrients, gut health, nervous system balance, and overall physiology-to function well.

So if you’ve been feeling “blah” despite doing a lot of the right things, it might not be a mindset issue.

Your body might simply need better support for the chemistry behind how you feel.

Comment “HELP” and we’ll DM you the next steps to look at what’s happening in your body and what may help ease your symptoms long term.
