“Before FNR I was always tired and didn’t have the energy to do even basic things. I would get off work and not have the energy to make dinner, so I would swing through the drive-thru and spend the rest of the evening in the recliner scrolling on my phone. Years of eating processed foods and sugar led to a significant amount of weight gain and a lot of physical ailments.

I was overweight and diabetic with pain in my lower back and knees, and on a host of medications. I simply wasn’t enjoying my life despite having moved closer to my sister and taking a job that I absolutely love.

In early 2024, I was looking at all the medications I was taking and wished I could get off of them, but didn’t know how and just continued with life as usual despite feeling angry with myself for allowing myself to get into my current situation. A few months later I was diagnosed with Type II diabetes. I decided I needed to make a change, as I didn’t want to spend my life on insulin and try to manage all the risks that come with being diabetic.

FNR came across my social media feed and I decided to look into it, as I had not heard of functional medicine. After speaking with them, I recognized they possessed the knowledge I was desperately needing, and they genuinely wanted to teach me and guide me in this process. For the first time, I began to feel hopeful that things could actually change. Knowing that I would have a team to help guide me and teach me healthier ways of eating, while holding me accountable was a big plus for me. I know myself and knew I needed accountability and a step by step guide while I was learning better habits.

Since completing my program, my quality of life has changed. I no longer require insulin.  My A1C is close to what is considered normal levels. I have lost a significant amount of weight leading to no more knee pain and much less lower back pain. I’m engaging in more activities with friends and completing projects I had put off for a few years because I was so tired all the time. Engaging in activities no longer feels like something to avoid but to look forward to and enjoy. I feel more confident and have started singing again. I feel happier, more confident, and more like myself..

Having someone walk alongside me in this journey has been invaluable. I’ve learned so much about food and how different foods affect the body. I think the biggest and best change has been the mental shift. The greatest battle, for me, was mental and changing my perspective on how I viewed food and my relationship with the food. I am so glad that I decided to put myself and my health first and will forever be grateful for the FNR staff for all of the help and continued support.”

“One year ago, I walked into FNR to discuss my struggles and goals, wondering if I would be a good candidate for a program. That day changed my life for the better.

I’m an active person—I love working out and going on adventures. But severe back pain had taken that away from me. I didn’t feel like myself and feared I’d never get that person back. I was on multiple medications that weren’t helping, leaving me frustrated, confused, and angry.

Now, after a year of working with FNR, I’m finally myself again! With the guidance of FNR and my rheumatologist, I’ve embraced a new way of living—avoiding foods that trigger issues and focusing on those that fuel my body. I’m sleeping better, have more energy, feel happier, and my stomach issues have improved. Best of all, my back pain is completely gone.

If you’re struggling and feeling lost, I encourage you to talk to FNR and see if you’re a good candidate. My only regret is not starting sooner.”

“I lived a very independent life and kept very busy in retirement from nursing. Being a healthcare professional my whole life I respect Western Medicine for what it can do but also realize that it comes up short in many issues. 

To put it bluntly, many times individuals go to their healthcare professional and get a diagnosis and the treatment is usually a pill. That is sufficient in some cases, especially infections and surgery. However, other diagnoses get treated based on symptoms, but not the root cause. 

In our society today and how we eat for convenience at restaurants and fast food, or pick up processed and/or refined foods for a quick fix, our bodies are not taking in the nutrients needed to support our good gut bacteria. Another factor in our food source is the depletion of minerals and heavy use of chemicals on our crops. Being aware of this, I needed more help in controlling or clearing up my psoriasis and didn’t want to go with a pill or injection. 

I knew I suffered from inflammation and was easily getting tendinitis, busitis and other “itis”. I was looking for someone who had the knowledge from the good research that could guide me on what I needed to do to clear up these issues at the root, not just treat symptoms.

I went to FNR after watching a webinar where Jennette shared her story. As a registered dietician, I was impressed how she went to the research and connected it with our food and diet. She seemed to be the person who had the answers that I was looking for. I was more convinced of this after talking to her.

My food plan has taken some adjustment, in changing some of my recipes. It was fairly easy though since I do cook and love vegetables. I have to say the team has been very supportive and easy to discuss any issues or concerns.”

“Before FNR, I was struggling with increasing RA symptoms (joint pain/stiffness) daily. My rheumatologist was wanting to prescribe immunosuppressant medication. I knew working with Functional Nutrition Resources was a big lifestyle change, but I had no idea what exactly to expect. I wanted to choose the right program for my needs.

After I started, I soon realized that this was exactly the right program for me. Their goals matched mine, and the changes were made easy with all the coaching and information provided. I saw significant reduction in symptoms early on. Every step of the program provided more and more relief from RA symptoms, improved gut-health symptoms, and increased energy.

If you’re on the fence I would say, It is a wonderful program that will help you make some amazing changes in your health and life. For me, it was something I couldn’t have done on my own. I am amazed and thankful for the results! Having just completed the program, I feel empowered and educated about how to continue to improve my health and life. These were tools I did not have before. I’m so thankful that I found this team! I imagine I will stay in touch with FNR for a long time.”

“I am just under 40 and I knew I shouldn’t be feeling this way.

Ever been told you the way you were feeling was just because you were “overweight”?? “I struggled with doctors who just wanted to put me on diet pills because, to them, all my problems were because I was overweight. I knew there was more to what I was feeling. I couldn’t get through one day without a migraine or feeling exhausted to the point I was napping on my lunch breaks to get through the day.

Now, I dont have constant coughing, my brain fog has gotten better, anxiety and mood have improved, I have normal bowel movements (TMI, but it’s a perk!), no acid reflux, no migraines, my energy level is up significantly, I sleep better, I’m able to work out without pain or swelling in my feet and hands, no stomach issues, and I’m able to eat foods that I have not been able to eat in 20 years! That’s just to name a few. I have also lost about 25 lbs and almost 30 inches. Today, I am actually looking forward to the future. I don’t have to worry about how I’m going to feel when I make plans ahead of time or where the bathroom is. I’m planning trips with my husband and playing outside with my nephews and dog which I wasn’t able to do before.

If you are on the fence about working with FNR, Just do it! Take the first step to save your own life because no one will do it for you. That’s what I feel I have done, saved my life with the help of some very knowledgeable and caring individuals.”

“Before FNR, I had massive joint pain in hips, spine, knees, and feet. I felt like I was 90 years old instead of 54. I had digestive issues and felt terrible and was concerned that I was going to end up in a wheelchair if things kept going the way they were.

Now, I have literally minimal pain in my joints anymore. My digestion has improved drastically, my bowel movements are normal every day and I know exactly what triggers I need to avoid. I am feeling like a 54 year old and sometimes even younger! I’m much smarter about the foods I choose and the supplements I’m taking daily.

If you’re on the fence about working with FNR, I would say, The support is awesome and you will learn alot about your own health and how to fix the real issues. I’m really happy I came to FNR.”

“Before FNR – I was exhausted, physically and emotionally. I am a mother of four, grandmother of nine, a Pastor’s wife, and I owned my own Insurance Business. At first, I thought I was keeping all the balls in the air until my body told me it had had enough! I had put on about 20-30 lbs. It was constantly fluctuating and I was always severely bloated. I looked pregnant and it was embarrassing. My hair was falling out everywhere. I had fatigue, brain fog, and terrible insomnia, also anxiety. I had to close my business which was hard because I worked so hard to build it and had done so well at it, but my oldest daughter came to me and said ‘Mom, something’s gotta give. I want you to be around to see your grandkids.’ Ouch. What a painful but beautiful moment. I am eternally grateful to her for helping me to see what poor health I truly was in.

After FNR – I don’t look 9 months pregnant anymore! The bloating still comes and goes but it is not constant. My hair loss has slowed down a bit as well, but the things I am really thankful for is more mental clarity and mental energy. My husband and I had a vacation in the Colorado mountains hiking and it was the best vacay I have had in years! I have more energy for my grandkids. My relationships are better than I expected! But as you get healthier I guess everything around you does too! I have Joy in my heart again! And I don’t say that lightly, to be able to feel true Joy, even if not every symptom is improved, is a gift! I can feel Joy again and I am so thankful to FNR for that.

I realize now, what I needed most was the support and accountability that FNR gives me. I had read and researched and done some of the things they recommended but it was the combination of the whole team rooting for me and speaking into my life that helped me get to where I am today.

If you are on the fence about working with FNR, I understand. It is a huge commitment in many ways. But I have to say I literally think it saved my life. And they have given me tools that I will have forever. I can never un-know what I have learned. I have tools and knowledge now that I didn’t have before. And you can’t put a price on that!!”

“Before FNR, I was overwhelmed and tired! I was hesitant about investing financially for my health.

After I started I realized, the beneficial impact was worth the investment. Now, I have more energy, stabilized mood, and a more positive outlook on life. The clarity I’ve received concerning my health gives me more confidence daily. I am full of more life today than when I began the program.

If you’re on the fence about working with Functional Nutrition Resources I would say, Do not hesitate. If you are exhausted and overwhelmed from working on your health journey alone, join this amazing team!! They will guide you to the healthiest version of yourself yet! I could not have imagined a better team! Seriously, each team member is so kind and supportive! Additionally, I learned SO much about my personal health as well as the best practices for daily health.”

“Before Functional Nutrition Resources, I was suffering from extremely annoying (and embarrassing) GI issues. I was scared to eat anything and spent a lot more time in the bathroom than I should have been for someone my age. I wasn’t hesitant to work with FNR, but I am very pro-western medicine, as I am a pharmacist, but I had a feeling I needed more than what reactionary medicine could provide for me.

After I started working with FNR, most of my issues completely disappeared within one month of the program. It really works and the team is there with you every step of the way. My results are amazing and life-changing. I have a newfound appreciation for how the food I put in my body affects my well being. While it is an investment, I can honestly say it was worth it. My gut is completely healed. I have zero of the symptoms that I started with. I am so thankful for this team of professionals and their recommendations. Highly, highly recommended.”

“Before FNR, “I was very tired most days, and just working to get over my pain after a night with very little sleep. I knew food aggravated my symptoms, but I did not know how to move forward. Ever since being told I had some unknown inflammatory disease, no doctors have been able to help other than prescribing medicine. But even then, most of them are just there to watch my symptoms get worse and prescribe more medicine once I get to that level of pain or joint deterioration.

After I started working with FNR, it has been life changing. They helped me get back to sleeping normal hours. I still take a nap once in a while, but 15 minutes is much better than needing 2-3 hours during the day to keep going. I can sleep for longer and better. I’m not nearly as exhausted anymore. I found more foods to avoid for pain, and I also learned to use many more foods in my daily menu, etc. I still have a long way to go, but I do believe I will be learning about eating and cooking healthy food for the rest of my life. There are still goals I want to reach on exercise, hopefully pregnancy, and continuing to decrease pain.”

“Before FNR, I was low on energy, had stomach problems that oftentimes kept me awake at night. I had foot neuropathy that also kept me awake at night as well. I needed to lose weight and gain my strength back. I was sitting way too much for my work and not exercising or eating as healthy as I needed to be doing. I had no hesitation in working with FNR.

After I started, I realized I only thought I had been eating pretty healthy. I knew that something needed to change because of my stomach problems and my foot pain. I knew I needed to exercise more regularly but lacked the motivation and excuses were plentiful and easy to come by.

Now, The inflammation in my body has been reduced significantly. I am now better aware of what is a healthier diet and what steps I need to continue to incorporate in my daily life. I still have work to do but now have a clearer understanding on how to reach my goal of a healthier lifestyle.

Your health should be your top priority, because if you think leading a healthy lifestyle is expensive, consider how expensive being in a state of constant illness will be! I am doing better now that I have a much better understanding of what steps to take to improve my health. I still have work to do, but I’m much further along the road of a healthy lifestyle than where I was 5 months ago! I really appreciate all of the knowledge and guidance I received while working with the staff at Functional Nutrition Resources. If it’s to be, it’s up to me, but it sure does make it a whole lot easier and much quicker when you have such a strong support system in place! Thank you!”

“Before working with FNR I was experiencing brain fog, fatigue, stomach issues like pain, bloating, and irritation, headaches, inability to lose weight, low motivation and just not feeling like my old self! I knew I needed to figure out why…

But after I started I realized they really know what they are doing! The staff is very knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. I needed to make myself a priority.

I have already felt RESULTS! Now, my stomach feels so much better!! The brain fog and fatigue have improved. I have also noticed my mood has been better! I’m not snapping at my children or husband. My headaches have decreased drastically! I have started to lose weight!!

If you’re on the fence about working with FNR, I say DO IT! I knew I was not getting to results I needed from traditional medicine. I felt like I was falling through the cracks because I’m only 35. I should know somewhat how to take care of myself! But at FNR, they look at your test results as a whole! They don’t just take one “bad” result at focus on that one “bad” result, they look at all of the results and form a comprehensive treatment plan. I am so thankful for you guys!! You have already been such a blessing!”
