Our Body's Vital Foundations
You are a remarkable creation! Just think of how many reactions and routines occur in your body in a single second. It's simply uncountable. All of this is possible because of the food you eat, the air you breathe, the water you drink and the sunlight you receive. From these elements, your body is nourished and sustained.
Once upon a time, vitality was commonplace. People were fit; cancer and autoimmune disorders were rare and many couples conceived large families. Fast forward to modern times where food products and toxins deprive the body of essential nutrients needed to maintain optimal health. Such stressors impair our vital foundations and leave us vulnerable to degenerative diseases, illness, dysfunction and infertility.
Who are my clients?
I see anyone who wants to address their health through nutrition and natural interventions. While I have developed some specialties over the years, the systems of the body are too connected to compartmentalize. Gut health affects skin; pregnancy is sustained by proper blood flow to the fetus; cognition is dependent on nutrient absorption. Genetics also plays a huge role! My clients range from the very young to the very old…expectant mothers…teenagers…preschoolers…athletes…retirees. I see everyone.
Who am I?
I am a concerned practitioner who hopes to relieve suffering and restore vitality. I began with a number of nutritional certifications ten years’ ago and went on to earn a Master’s Degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine. Today, I complete many hours of continuing education and train regularly by reviewing cases with experts. The holistic and alternative landscape is constantly expanding and my experience has provided me with the tools and insight to put it all together for you. From various labs to genetics to diet and supplements, I can offer you a comprehensive view of your health and provide you with the precise plan you need to move forward.

Today's Dinner Plate
Today's foods are processed to increase shelf life and maximize taste. Nutrients that are natural to food when it is harvested are stripped away to prevent spoilage. While synthetic vitamins are often added back in, the body does not assimilate them as easily as in their natural state. Beneficial probiotics, enzymes and other natural components are also lost. Pasteurization, irradiation and other procedures designed to make the food safe actually damage vital protein and fatty acid structures. All of this impairs digestion and leads to inflammatory processes which degrade health and foster illness.
Yesterday's Dinner Plate
Generations ago, dietary staples contained a far greater nutrient content than what's on the dinner plates of today. Fruits and vegetables contained an abundance of minerals while meats, dairy and grains contained an ample supply of vitamins and fatty acids. Food was also prepared according to traditional methods that made the nutrients more available and beneficial to the body.

Patient Testimonials.
I worked out on Saturday without the inhaler. I worked out very hard and feel very encouraged. I coughed for a bit after but it was very mild and lighter than ever before. Very encouraging!
Zack C, Plano, TX
My first nutritionist, Chris Bramich. He really showed me the right direction to go when it came to eating, lifestyle, and differentiating real health food with "health section food". Highly recommend him.
Alex, Arlington, TX
My daughter swam in the Level 2 championship meet this weekend and had the first major time drops since her epilepsy diagnosis a year and a half ago. Her coaches were blown away! She dropped 1.74 seconds in her 100 free and an amazing 1.19 seconds in the 50 free, making it to finals and finishing 8th overall with a 27.53. Her coach asked her what's different and she mentioned you and how much better she's been feeling! Just wanted to say thanks!
Katie, Fort Worth, TX
Thank you very much for your time with my wife and I on Saturday. We really appreciate it and are very much excited about the improvements we can make now that we have professional personal guidance and input in our program!
