BIO INDIVIDUALITY
Integrative Nutrition Plate†
BIO INDIVIDUALITY
The concept of Bio-Individuality emphasizes that each individual has unique food and lifestyle needs. What works well for one person may not necessarily work for another, and this is why generic or fad diets often do not lead to sustained success.
An integrated health and nutrition coach, operating on the principle of bio-individuality, will support you in making positive changes tailored to your specific needs, lifestyle, preferences, and ancestral background. This personalized approach takes into account your individuality and aims to create sustainable habits and improvements that align with your unique biological and cultural factors. By embracing bio-individuality, you can discover the foods and lifestyle choices that best support your health and well-being in the long term.
Integrative Nutrition Plate†

Integrative Nutrition Plate†
The Integrative Nutrition Plate emphasizes the importance of local and organic produce, whole grains, high-quality proteins, plant-based fats, and water. It shows you how a plate should appear at mealtime and emphasizes the importance of proportions and portion size. To complete the picture, the plate is surrounded with lifestyle factors that create optimal health: relationship, career, physical activity and spirituality. The integrated health and nutriton coach introduce you to some of the healthiest foods on the planet and teach you how to find what’s healthiest for your unique body!
PRIMARY FOOD
SECONDARY FOOD
Integrative Nutrition Plate†
The concept of "Primary Food" highlights the holistic factors beyond just the food we consume that contribute to our overall sense of nourishment and fulfillment. These factors include healthy relationships (both at home and socially), a fulfilling career, regular physical activity, financial stability, ongoing education, joy, creativity, a sense of health, home cooking, and spiritual awareness. When these primary aspects of life are in balance, the importance of what we eat as "secondary food" diminishes.
Primary food nourishes our soul, while secondary food nourishes our body. A certified health and nutritional coach can assist you in achieving holistic wellness goals, addressing not only dietary needs but also helping you lead an inspired and fulfilling life. By focusing on improving primary foods—such as relationships, career satisfaction, physical activity, and overall well-being—you can cultivate a more balanced and nourishing life that supports your health and happiness on a deeper level.
Certified health and nutritional coach will support you in achieving all of your goals, from eating the right foods for your body to living an inspired, fulfilling life.
SECONDARY FOOD
SECONDARY FOOD
SECONDARY FOOD
Secondary food refers to the actual food we consume daily—what's on our plate. It represents the tangible nourishment derived from our diet and forms the intersection of nutrition and health. The choices we make regarding our secondary food are influenced by a multitude of factors, some of which may not initially appear to be related to diet. These factors include:
- Health considerations
- Lifestyle preferences
- Environmental influences
- Physiological and psychological factors
- Societal, cultural, and economic influences
- Personal belief systems, food relationships, and knowledge of food
Understanding secondary food involves recognizing that our dietary choices are shaped by a complex interplay of these factors. By solely focusing on diet, we only see one piece of the broader puzzle of nourishment.
It's important to acknowledge that nourishment occurs on different levels, with primary food (such as relationships, career satisfaction, and spiritual awareness) playing a crucial role in shaping our overall well-being. When considering secondary food, it's essential to reflect on and address the broader aspects of primary food to achieve a more holistic and balanced approach to nourishment and health.
CROWDING OUT
SECONDARY FOOD
SECONDARY FOOD
The concept of "Crowding Out" in nutrition focuses on a positive and proactive approach to improving dietary habits. Unlike traditional approaches that emphasize avoiding certain foods and following strict guidelines, the Crowding Out method encourages consuming foods and beverages that are beneficial for health.
By incorporating more nutritious and wholesome foods into your diet, you naturally create less space and desire for unhealthy foods. This approach involves gradually increasing the consumption of nutrient-dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. As these healthier options become more prominent in your diet, there is less room or inclination for less nutritious, processed foods.
Crowding Out requires practice and commitment to shifting eating habits, but it offers a sustainable and enjoyable way to improve overall nutrition. A certified health and nutritional coach can provide guidance and support throughout this process, helping you make positive changes to your diet that promote health and well-being over the long term. With consistent effort and encouragement, Crowding Out can lead to lasting improvements in dietary choices and overall health.
