Mission Statement & Philosophy: Stella Metsovas integrates research-backed information to create the ultimate, dietary-prescription based on your unique biochemistry, lifestyle, and physiology. No meal plans or calorie-dependent diets, just individual, specific, nutrition.
Methodology: “Individual. Specific. Nutrition”
Individual: Comprehensive analysis is generally overlooked in clinical practice. It’s imperative to identify imbalances and/or issues related to digestion, metabolism and lifestyle – by examining data provided by the client
Specific: Fad diets come and go. The multi-billion-dollar-a-year diet industry constantly looks for strategies to lure in money from consumers; all the while misleading them into thinking they are getting personalized diets. The most accurate personalized approach is to use diagnostic measures, such as:
- Respiratory testing: to figure out resting expenditure and metabolic rate
- Blood testing: to understand underlying micronutrient deficiencies
- Stool testing: for yeast imbalance and gut-transit issues
- Genetic testing: salivary tests for hormones and their metabolic influences (e.g., cortisol and digestion)
Nutrition: “One man’s food is another man’s poison.” Understanding nutrient interactions within our bodies is key to achieving good health. Nutrition is the foundation to optimal health.
