A Simple Step by Step Program For Your Wellness. Lifestyle changes that produce real and lasting results.
Tamara Underwood is a Holistic Health Coach based in Luray, VA. Her education has equipped her with extensive knowledge in holistic nutrition, health coaching and preventive health. Tamara works with clients to help them reach their health goals in areas such as achieving optimal weight, reducing food cravings, increasing sleep and maximizing energy. She specializes in working with migraine sufferers and those with Celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. Tamara will help you develop a deeper understanding of the food and lifestyle choices that work best for you and will teach you to implement lasting changes that will improve your overall energy and health.
Tamara is certified in Metabolic Typing which helps to determine your unique metabolic needs. Nutrition is the foundation of a great health building plan. Biochemical individuality means that we all have different requirements for nutrition. While we all need the full spectrum of nutrients, the quality and amounts of nutrients are tailored to each individual.
Tamara is also certified in Functional Diagnostic Nutrition which enables her to uncover compromises in the foundations of health: Diet, Digestion, Hormones, Immune system and the Mucosal Barrier. Symptoms are the body's way of communicating there is a problem. There are two approaches to addressing symptoms. The most common approach is to take a drug or herbal remedy to suppress the symptom. This allows the problem to continue unchecked or escalate because you can no longer hear your body communicating the problem. The Functional Diagnostic Nutrition approach is to find the underlying cause of the symptom(s) and support the foundational systems in the body to alleviate any symptoms. Tamara uses functional lab assessments to create individual, customized protocols that support and restore function from the foundation up.
In this informative interview presented by 2nd Cousin Media, health and wellness expert Tamara Underwood discusses:
Why one person's diet may turn out to be the exact opposite of what works for another
Why delayed food sensitivities can cause symptoms that you do not connect with the food you are eating
Why supplements may cause more problems than they solve
The difference between Celiac Disease and a Gluten Sensitivity
Tamara began her health care career in 1992 as an Emergency Medical Technician and in 1995 received her B.S. from Radford University in Medical Laboratory Science. Her journey into holistic health began while she was seeking a solution to migraines which she had been plagued with since childhood. She became a Certified Holistic Health Coach by attending the Institute for Integrative Nutrition's cutting-edge Health Coach Training Program.
