Food First Nurse
Stephanie Marshall
Registered Nurse, BSN, Holistic Nurse, Functional Nurse
I am a Registered Nurse with over 15 years of experience that educates my clients how to heal their gut and improve their health issues by addressing the root causes. I utilize a holistic approach to provide personalized guidance on diet, lifestyle changes, and lab work interpretation to help them achieve long lasting wellness.
Are you struggling with low energy, weight loss resistance, blood sugar imbalances, digestive complaints, bloating, gas, belching, or vague symptoms that you don't know if they are related?
​
Do you feel like you have been dismissed or told this is just a normal part of aging?
Do you feel like something is "off" with your health?
Have you been told your labs are normal so you're fine?
​
​I believe you. Because I was there too.
​
I am here to help guide you! Did you know you could have gut imbalances and not even have digestive symptoms? Did you know that 70% of our immune system is housed in our gut? Gut health plays a vital role in achieving true healing and I want to educate you how to nourish your body and restore balance. Together, we will take a "food first" approach to help you heal from the inside out.

This is root cause care - one bite at a time!
Areas of Expertise
Holistic Health, Functional Nursing, Gut Health,
Health & Wellness Advocate
I have my Bachelors of Science in Nursing and over 15 years of experience in caring for patients in the hospital setting. After years of feeling like I was not seeing my patients get better and truly heal, I sought after a more holistic setting. I also sought out functional medicine after having my own health problems. I was dismissed by several of my own providers for histamine reactions and mold illness concerns. I wanted to educate myself so I could improve my own health, and optimize wellness for my patients. I have a certificate in Functional Medicine for Nurses from Integrative Nurse Coach Academy in partnership with the Institute for Functional Medicine and I am always looking for more opportunities to expand my knowledge and expertise for better client outcomes! Teaching is my passion, so I like to consider working with me more of a learning opportunity on how to connect the dots of what your symptoms are trying to tell you.
