What is a Holistic Nutrition Consultant? 

You might hear the term Nutritionist, Holistic Nutrition Coach, Nutrition Consultant or something else similar to that. Not all Nutrition Coaches are the same and every different province and state has a different term, as well as different training schools. A Nutrition Coach is someone who has training and experience in healthy eating and understands the way food and good nutrition can affect our health.

The Importance of A Healthy Gut

Gut health is so important, and its actually my own poor gut health which lead me to study Nutrition. I find this topic very interesting, and its important for us all to have a basic understanding of why we are hearing so much about this right now in the media and on all of our food advertising. 

Where is your gut?

The mouth is actually the first part of the gut. When we eat food, it passes down the throat into the stomach and then into the small intestine. The small intestine is where food is digested and absorbed by the bloodstream.

After that it proceeds into the large intestine, also known as the colon, and the final part of the colon leads on to the rectum, where waste products are stored until they are excreted. 

Simply put, that is your gastrointestinal tract – and your gut!

Why is good gut health so important?

You may feel tired, cold or that you've gained weight.  Maybe your digestion seems a bit more “sluggish”.

You may be convinced that your metabolism is slow.

Why does this happen?  Why do metabolic rates slow down? What can slow my metabolism?

Metabolism includes all of the biochemical reactions in your body that use nutrients and oxygen to create energy.  And there are lots of factors that affect how quickly (or slowly) it works, i.e. your “metabolic rate” (which is measured in calories).

But don't worry – we know that metabolic rate is much more complicated than the old adage “calories in calories out”!  In fact it's so complicated I'm only going to list a few of the common things that can slow it down.
