MY TYPICAL CLIENT

Does this sound like you, or someone you love?

• CHILDREN on the Autism spectrum, Sensory Processing Disorder, ADD, or other behavioral disorders that conventional treatment has failed to provide satisfactory results, and whose parents are searching for a better alternative to drug therapy
• MEN who struggle with libido, hypertension, digestive issues, cognitive problems
• ANYONE struggling with bloating, gas, fatigue, skin, hair issues that have failed to achieve results they are looking for with conventional medicine

HOW MY TRAINING BENEFITS YOU

My training in both pharmacy and functional nutrition allows me to meet you right where you are.

Many of my clients come to me, having been prescribed a number of pharmaceutical drugs to manage symptoms of their root issue(s), which never got diagnosed or resolved. In some cases, those drugs then cause their own negative side-effects.

I can make suggestions about your current medications, and my goal is to help you resolve your health issues without pharmaceutical interventions. I have also supported patients who are trying to taper safely from medications, including psych drugs, such as anti-depressants.

MY FOCUS

To find the underlying root cause of symptoms using functional medicine principles, by identifying and removing triggers, decreasing inflammation, restoring the metabolic pathways and energy production, and repairing the damaged systems through targeted nutrient therapies and lifestyle changes.

getting to know

DR GAIL CLAYTON

Prior to my nutrition career, I worked as a Clinical Pharmacist for over 25 years. I became passionate about learning nutrition after exhausting all of the pharmaceutical options that conventional medicine had to offer for my own chronic illness. Nutrition was the single most powerful tool that helped me regain my health. I would like to do the same for you.

"I wanted to become the kind of Dr that I needed for myself."
