Aimee Shelton

As a wife and mother of three nearly grown daughters, my life is always filled with laughter and adventure. Our family loves to explore new places and share new experiences.

I am a lifelong learner of how things work & believe that knowledge is power - when you have the right information AND you know what to do with it.

After having so many friends and loved ones develop diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, & other issues, I wanted to understand why. These are known as Preventable Lifestyle Diseases - they are preventable. Even if "diabetes runs in your family" or "everyone in our family has this issue eventually", it doesn't have to be your reality.

Functional Nutrition takes a Client-Centered, personalized approach to address dis-ease in the body. Taking the whole person - environment, diet, body, mind & lifestyle - into consideration, we can ask the right questions that lead to a whole person solution.

When clients understand what is going on in the body and apply individualized diet & lifestyle recommendations, optimal health can be restored and sustainable change can be achieved.

Your first visit will be to review your Health History Questionnaire and will involve a lot of questions! It is through this conversation that I start to understand how your life brought you to your current health status. By the end of our first session together, you will have some of your own questions answered that will help make connections. You will leave with an actionable step that will help you build traction and gain momentum.

My parents & grandparents always encouraged me to find the answer to "Why does that happen?" They encouraged my natural curiosity and supported my journey towards a deeper understanding.

Training under Functional Nutrition Alliance founder Andrea Nakayama, CNE, MSHNFM, and Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo, founder of the Institute of Nutritional Endocrinology, has inspired and equipped me to educate clients so they are empowered to make choices that serve their best health.
