ANOTHER Nutrition Consultant course…

I know, therefore I will share with you what makes this course, and therefore YOU stand out from others?

We need to think of food as communication. 

Meaning what we put into our body communicates with every cell in our body. 

We have forgotten the saying, “You are what you eat”. 

When we eat food that causes miscommunication we see illness, disease, inflammation, autoimmune diseases, mood disorders, and food addiction, to name a few.

We will ignore the signals until we no longer can. 

The body whispers before it screams. 

Currently our mental and physical health are at an all-time low. 

One of the most deceitful and shameful tactics the food industry uses is pushing the untruth that you have caused your own illness.You are to blame. How? With the running narrative of, it is your choice. Those food and beverage choices reflect your true desires, it is your weakness, your lack of self-control, solely your fault, your choice. If this were true, why would these industries spend billions and billions of advertising and marketing dollars directed at you to ensure that you buy their product? 

Too many diseases are due to misinformed food choices and living an over-worked and under-supported life.

It is not due to a lack of pharmaceutical medications.

The food we eat communicates with our body, our mind, our spirit.

This communication will create vitality and wellness should we allow ourselves to see and live the possibility of wellness. This wellness is a multifaceted view – a dance between what is “outside” and what is “inside”.

“We do not make food choices in a vacuum. ... We may believe that we make informed decisions about food choice, but we cannot do so if we are oblivious of the ways food companies influence our choices.”

~ Marion Nestle

Kirsten C.

  • How often do we meet?
    This varies depending on your needs.Once we determine what your first actionable steps are we determine how much time is appropriate between session 1 to session 2; then session 2 to session 3; then session 3 to session 4. The reason is because each woman is different so there is no 1 size fits all time between sessions.
  • Are lab tests a requirement for The Well Woman Program?
    No. Lab tests are absolutely NOT a requirement for the Program. Once we get to know each other, we will discuss if you need a test or not. It is always entirely up to you and 100% optional.
  • What lab testing is offered?
    We will test whatever we determine you need. Here are a few examples: The DUTCH Test—Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones—is an industry-leading option that can provides a clear picture of your hormonal levels. The hormones that can be tested are Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone, DHT, DHEA, and Cortisol. These tests are unique in that they also measure the metabolites of these hormones and test for OATS (Organic Acid Test). A blood draw is currently the only way to measure Thyroid Hormones. Thyroid Hormones are crucial to your overall cellular metabolism. Testing only for TSH is outdated. To gain a full picture of thyroid health we like to see: TSH + FreeT3 + FreeT4 + ReverseT3. As well as thyroid antibodies: TPO + TG. These crucial hormones often get overlooked with the exception of TSH. These tests can be done by your Physician. If your physician will not order these tests. I can and we will set you up at a LabCorp near you. Urine test for Intestinal Permeability AKA Leaky Gut Lactulose/Mannitol Test The small intestine is crucial for providing your body and brain with the nutrients it needs to function properly. Another role it plays is keeping things out of the bloodstream. This is accomplished by something called “tight junctions” between the IECs (intestinal epithelial cells). When these tight junctions become loosened improperly digested food, as well as toxins go directly into the bloodstream. Your immune system responds. Left untreated you will experience inflammation and possibly autoimmune disorders.
  • Is lab testing included in the Well Woman Program pricing?
    No. However, I think every woman should have access to these tests, therefore I do not upcharge from my Practitioner price.
  • Do you suggest supplements?
    Yes. You can count on me recommending supplements with dosages that actually do something. We start slowly, with 1 or 2, so we know what works best for you. I will thoroughly explain why I am suggesting a supplement for you. We address the root cause then supplement to support your flourishing health. As a Well Woman Program member you will receive a 20% discount off the retail price.
  • Do you suggest bio-identical hormone replacement?
    Yes. I do not prescribe, as I am not a Physician. We start slowly, with low dosages, so we know what works best for you. I will thoroughly explain why I am suggesting a bioidentical hormone for you. As a Well Woman Program member you will receive a 20% discount off the retail price. We cannot hormone replace our way out of a lifestyle that does not support our wellbeing. Therefore, we address the root cause then utilize bio-identical hormones to support your flourishing health.
  • Do you treat Hashimoto's?
    Yes. The autoimmune disorder Hashimoto's is one of my specialties. As well as hypothyroid, of which 1 in 8 women will develop at some point in their life, particularly during perimenopause.
  • How much does The Well Woman Program cost?
    The 20 minute complimentary call is free. For latest pricing plans visit www.jenniferfoege.com/plans-pricing
  • What if I require more than the complimentary call and the four 75-minute sessions?
    We will determine this together in session #4.If continued support is needed, you will have it!
