We teach you how to help the people who need it most
There are a LOT of specialty diets and nutrition programs out there. And there are a lot of practitioners who subscribe to ONE diet or ONE protocol, and have tremendous success with a lot of people. These set protocols DO help people. Approximately 80% of the population could be helped by these standardized solutions.
But then there’s that other 20%.
A full 20% of the millions of people who are chronically ill right now, CAN’T use these set protocols. They need a different approach – one that takes a Full Body System approach.
If you want to work with people who haven’t found relief in the trendy, formulaic solutions and need a caring, dedicated and hard-working practitioner to dig deep and go the distance with them, you’re in the right place.

HOW WE’RE DIFFERENT
We teach you Functional Nutrition
Functional Nutrition helps the body to function at its best. It’s a modality that works not just to support, but to educate the patient on what’s going on in their body, what factors may have contributed to their current condition, and how to make uniquely targeted diet and lifestyle modifications that help them to meet their goals.
THE FUNCTIONAL NUTRITION ALLIANCE CLINIC
We have helped thousands of people regain their health, often when no one else could
Started and directed by Andrea, our Functional Nutrition clinic can help you no
matter how complicated your health issues are and no matter where you’re located.
All of our exceptionally talented nutritionists have been through our Functional
Nutrition training programs, and are hand-selected and personally mentored by
Andrea. The nutrition team is also part of the faculty for Full Body Systems –
providing clinical insights to students of our nutrition training programs.
OUR MISSION
We envision a world where patients are empowered to participate in their health outcomes
We believe this empowerment requires a systems-based approach to nutrition and
a heart-centric approach to patient and client care.
We call this functional — it’s what we teach and it’s what we practice.
Upon graduation from Full Body Systems, you’ll have everything you need to make
the impact in healthcare that you’re most passionate about. Join the thousands of
