A couple of years ago, I was diagnosed with osteoporosis. I took Fossamax initially, but stopped after a while because I was not convinced it was the best way to rebuild my bones. I have always been interested in nutrition and although I felt I was eating healthfully, I decided to do the Functional Evaluation in order to learn how well I was metabolizing my food and to find out how I could best get more calcium in my diet. I learned that I was digesting and absorbing nutrients pretty well, but my liver was having some trouble processing food. I had several deficiencies including severe deficiencies in calcium and vitamin C. Maureen recommended some changes to my eating style that would help conserve my calcium and support my liver. She designed a supplement program that provided the nutrients I needed to support my liver, strengthen and rebuild my bones, and support my busy lifestyle. Maureen also encouraged me to follow through with hormone testing with my primary care physician and made recommendations based on the test results. Her program has made me feel more confident that I am doing the best I can to strengthen my bones, balance my hormones and support my overall health. Her knowledge, spirit and flexibility has made the process one that I would recommend to others.
