Holistic Nutrition Lifestyle was founded by Dyna Vink to help women navigate the symptoms of perimenopause. Using a an integrative approach, Dyna is certified as an Integrative Health Practitioner and coach to guide women through what can be some confusing information.
For women entering perimenopause, there wasn’t good information out there to understand how perimenopause changes our bodies. Very few people discuss perimenopause, and doctors are poorly equipped to help. Rather than dealing with many different and puzzling symptoms individually, the answer is often “perimenopause”.
Dyna found that her family physician, dietician, and fitness coach seemed to be operating on a different planet. Their prescription of a traditional low fat, high carb diet wasn’t working, and the high impact exercising was draining – all without delivering good outcomes.
After gaining a lot of weight and developing underlying conditions (insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, high blood pressure), Dyna started doing her own research to figure out what was happening to the body she thought she knew so well.
The result of this research concluded that no single approach was enough. Turns out there are several simple changes to embrace to create a holistic lifestyle. This meant women can live free of most medications, recapture their vitality, and be empowered to get back to doing the things they loved.
The magic happened when Dyna came across functional medicine testing. It can pinpoint the root causes of symptoms that conventional testing miss. This testing is available to take within the privacy of your home. A customized wellness plan is prepared and the results are life-changing in just a couple of months.
Dyna has since certified as an Integrative Health Practitioner and offers functional medicine testing and coaching. This quickly identifies issues with gut health, thyroid issues, heart health, heavy metal, parasites and hormone imbalances so they can be restored. These factors are commonly out of balance in women struggling with perimenopause.
