Fdn Support Show

Practitioner Spotlight with Sonya Catterfeld Sonya Catterfeld, BSc, FDN-P, MT Advisor Sonya had been very ill for three years and worked with multiple doctors before she realized that conventional medicine just didn't have anything for her. She wanted to find the root cause for her illness and truly overcome her diseases. Sonya eventually found a doctor who required her to do Metabolic Typing  before working together. Within a week she was already seeing the difference. The improvement to her health at that time was so dramatic that she decided to become trained in Metabolic Typing and also found FDN. Sonya is now reaping the benefits of all the hard work she's put into her health.

Bill Wolcott's help and history with FDN Course development FDN and Metabolic Typing approach compared to other symptom-based approaches Genetic potential and vitalism 2x4, sawhorse, and brick analogy Degenerative disease occurs over time because the body can't resolve the stress The stairway to health Poor health is abnormal No fulfillment in treating symptoms or test results; only in discovering root cause False sense of security when only treating symptoms If you are defending, you are depleting Any symptom or any disease can arise from any stressor or number of stressors Education of the client is our greatest work Stick with and trust in the process Right expectations and client motivation come from right understanding Clients need to have faith in the process It's okay to threaten to fire a client if they are not compliant The more difficult the health challenge, the more strict you have to be as a practitioner Bill's opinion of genetic testing/MTHFR
