Ep 18: You Are More Than Your Diagnosis w/ Rita Utterback
On today's episode I am joined by another very special guest who I met through social media and this is Rita Utterback. Rita is the founder of Radiate with Rita and is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P) and a Certified Holistic Nutritionist who specializes in helping women ditch band aid approaches to conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, chronic digestive issues + histamine intolerance so they can finally feel like they're living life again and not just surviving. As a woman who has struggled with endometriosis herself, Rita is able to hold space for other chronic illness warriors + help them find their own path to healing through a root cause approach, sustainable nutrition & lifestyle habits.
In this episode we discuss:
- How Rita got into functional medicine and starting her own practice
- Rita explains the difference between western medicine and functional medicine/nutrition
- Her journey navigating endometriosis (endo) and now supporting her clients through it as well
- How she found out she was struggling with endo and the treatments she completed to help minimize her symptoms
- Some common signs and symptoms to look out for that may indicate you are struggling with endo
- Different ways you can heal your body naturally when you are diagnosed with endo
- As a practitioner Rita discusses the most frustrating thing she sees a lot of people to do when it comes to seeking out health information
- Some of the biggest misconceptions when it comes to healing your body and taking a root cause approach
- Some basic protocols you could start doing today to see improvements in your symptoms
