The Power of Food as Medicine
Manage episode 447425392 series 3422694
Andrea Nakayama is a powerhouse in the world of functional medicine, and her passion for empowering people to reclaim ownership of their health is at the heart of everything she does.
Andrea’s story is deeply personal, shaped by the struggles and pain she faced after losing her husband. Rather than being consumed by her grief, she honored his legacy by channeling her energy into helping others find hope and healing in their own health journeys.
Her approach highlights the hidden epidemic of inflammation and how external toxins, paired with internal imbalances, can damage our health. Andrea emphasizes non-negotiable health basics: sleep, digestion, and blood sugar regulation. She encourages us to stop being strangers to our bodies and embrace food as medicine.
Through her Functional Nutritional Alliance, Andrea teaches that health is more than just avoiding illness—it's about harnessing the power within us to thrive.
