Hi, I'm Patti!
I'm a functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner (FDN-P).
Chances are that I have walked in shoes similar to you. You see almost from the time I can remember, I suffered with gut issues. Oh, I didn’t know that I had issues because for me, it was normal. I thought everyone had to unbutton their pants after a meal. I thought it was normal to experience discomfort and have trouble with “trapped gas.” It became more problematic as I got older and approached menopausal age. I would bloat so quickly that I looked 7-8 months pregnant! It was embarrassing as well as painful! As I entered my 50's, weight started creeping on, even though I was working out and really watching what I ate! My once high energy levels were gone!
I saw doctors and chiropractors and nutritionists, but no one could tell me why I had no energy and why I wasn’t feeling good anymore. The advice I received was you are healthy! You might cut out gassy foods, cut your calories and exercise more." As if I hadn't already tried those things!
At the end of my rope, I had the good fortune to work with a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. It changed everything! My gut health improved! No more bloating! Twenty pounds melted away! My energy was back and I felt like me again! l was inspired to become a FDN-P so that I could help others get their life back too!
As I went through my certification as a practitioner, I ran a series of cutting-edge functional lab tests on myself and discovered that my hormones and digestion were all a mess! I used the patented D.R.E.S.S. ® protocol on myself while addressing the imbalances found on my lab work, I now feel better than I ever have. I want that for you too! Click below to book a free call.
At Vitality Activated, I strive to be your ultimate health coach, offering you a transformative experience that will make all others obsolete. Discover the reasons you no longer have the energy you used to have. Inflammation from an imbalanced microbiome reduces energy by taxing your immune system. When excessive inflammation is present in your body, resources are sent to fight inflammation instead of boosting your vitality.
As a certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), I employ a comprehensive & integrative approach to diet and wellness. Considered health detectives, FDN Practitioners, utilize evidence-based protocols to identify underlying causes and conditions, employing functional tests and expert analyses of lab results. We like to say "Test, not guess!" By addressing the root causes, we aim to restore overall functions and vitality, ensuring optimal well-being for our valued clients so you live with Your Vitality Activated!
vitality changes as we age
Vitality may change as we age, It is important to look at lifestyle choices, and overall health, and being knowledgeable regarding these changes is key to embracing each life stage and nurturing our well-being.
Our gut health is a vital piece of the puzzle, often dubbed our "second brain." It influences everything from our immune system to our mood and hormones. As we age, maintaining a healthy gut becomes increasingly crucial, impacting our energy levels, cognitive function, and body resilience against ailments.
Our diet is central to keeping our gut happy and our energy levels up. Loading our plates with colorful, nutrient-rich foods like fruits, veggies, whole grains, and lean proteins not only nourishes us, but also supports digestive health and overall vitality. Conversely, skimping on variety and essential nutrients might leave us feeling less vibrant as the years go by.
Recognizing the connection between vitality, gut health, and diet empowers us to make informed choices. By adopting mindful eating habits, supplementing when necessary, and adjusting our lifestyles, we can cultivate a thriving gut environment and embrace the aging journey with vitality and grace.
WORK WITH ME
We'll start with a free discovery call where we'll get to know each other, chat about your goals, and see how we might work together.
We will go over your options and talk about what is best for you.
There are DIY options where you can learn some information and apply on your own. (This takes a high level of self motivation)
OR, we can dive into one of several 1:1 coaching packages.
With the packages, I'll guide you along the process with regular meetings. As we get to know each other, I may recommend running a series of at-home functional lab tests that will help us uncover answers to the health questions that have plagued you for so long.
We'll be working on implementing the right diet for you. We'll work on a balanced exercise regimen, if you're up for it. We'll dive into practical ways to manage stress. We'll optimize your sleep and digestion. All of this takes time, so I ask my clients to really commit, and work with me for 3-6 months.
Let's talk labs! Here are the functional lab tests I'll help you run.
stress and hormones panel
The Adrenal Stress and Hormone Panel is a simple saliva test that can be done at home. We'll look at markers that give insight as to why you aren't sleeping, can't lose weight, and are exhausted all of the time.
gi Map
Gut test
The GI Map is a simple, at home stool test that shows us why you're struggling with bloating, gas, diarrhea or constipation, reflux, stomach pain, and increasingly new food sensitivities.
MRT FOod
sensitivity test
This blood test looks at over 175 different food proteins to see if your immune system is reacting to certain things you're eating. If you suffer from mood swings, brain fog, low energy, skin issues, or stomach pain, you'll benefit.
Mucosal barrier assessment
This at home dried blood spot test looks for intestinal permeability and can help us figure out why you have histamine issues or have a hard time digesting your food.
metabolic wellness panel
The MWP helps us figure out if you have any DNA damage that can be affecting levels of inflammation and premature aging. It also helps us determine if your liver is congested and your detoxification pathways are compromised.

Frequently asked questions
What is an FDN-P?
An FDN-P is an expertly trained "health detective" who uses a series of functional lab tests to help clients uncover the hidden causes of their chronic health issues. We like to say “Test” don’t “Guess.”
Do you take insurance?
No. Functional Diagnostic Nutrition is an opt-in model of self-care. As we are not physicians and we do not diagnose, treat, or prescribe, we do not take insurance.
However, financing may be availabel at ZERO % interest with the Advance Care Card & if you file with your insurance, some labs may be reimbursed to you. This is totally an individual issue.
Where do we meet?
My practice is 100% virtual- this makes it easy for you to meet with me from your home or office! Our sessions will be conducted over Zoom or via telephone.
Have you helped others like me?
Yes! I've worked with clients who suffer from a number of issues that traditional medicine has no answers for. I can help you naturally move your body from a state of dysfunction to a state of function.
Will I get better? And how fast?
Rebalancing the body takes time. Likely you've been feeling unwell for months or years, and it will take at least a few months for us to begin to turn your health around together. There are no guarantees, but if you are willing to put in the time and effort I ask of you, positive changes in energy, mood, sleep, weight, libido, and digestion can occur in as little as a few weeks.
Applying the principles of D.R.E.S.S. that Patti teaches was a life-changing experience. Her support helped me make sustainable lifestyle changes & her recommendations of a few supplements have improved my physical health in a way I have never been able to do & I tried everything!
