Welcome to the Functional Nutrition Podcast. I'm your host, Erin Holt. I'm an integrative and

functional medicine nutritionist with a feisty attitude in well over a decade of clinical experience.

I work with women all over the world through my online programs. And I'm also the founder of the

Functional Nutrition Academy, a school in practitioner mentorship

where we help other clinicians level up with functional medicine methodologies. I've got a bone

failing so many of us. Creating a new model is my life's work, and this is what this show's all about.

Please keep in mind, this podcast is created for educational purposes only and should never

be used as a replacement for medical diagnosis or treatment. If you like what you hear

today, I would love for you to subscribe to the show, leave a review in iTunes, share with

a friend, and keep coming back for more.

for the new podcast image to update. But we're just like out with the old. We are clearing

and we are releasing. And if you're listening

to this, you're getting a clearing and a releasing and a healing and everybody wins. It's wonderful.

We're letting go the old energy and we are reintroducing the new, fresh stuff we want to bring in.

It is an emotional week, emotional couple of weeks and not just because I'm recording legit recording today under a full moon, just because of all the things that have

been going on that I've been sharing with you. If you listened to the last little mini episode,

if you caught my video on Instagram, we sent it out to our newsletter,
