FACT: Leaky Gut Extends BEYOND The Digestive System & Is Affecting Millions Of People!

It's important to understand that MOST disease & dysfunction starts in the GUT! 

From The Desk Of T. Chad McDannel, APRN, FNP-BC

Dear Friend, 


Leaky gut syndrome is a major cause of disease and dysfunction in modern society. Research has shown that up to 50% of chronic complaints in the U.S. can be linked back to leaky gut.


Let's explored this a little further...


Think of the lining of your digestive tract like a net with extremely small holes in it. Your gut lining works as a barrier to keep out larger particles...proteins and other foreign substances from entering your blood stream.


When somebody has Leaky Gut, the intestinal lining or "net" gets damaged which can even cause bigger holes to develop. This causes even more particles through such as gluten, undigested food particles, bad bacteria and other toxic waste products. This ultimately causes an immune reaction and a downward spiral in your overall health.

OUR APPROACH IS UNIQUE!

We Don't Guess - We TEST


Remember, we take a "global" look. We look at a variety of factors including foods, nutrients, toxins, inflammation, cell health etc. 


In order to truly get well and solve the problem, you need a practitioner who is like a detective. Somebody who will take the time and dig for the root cause. NOT somebody who spends 5 minutes with you, gives you a "chemical" and says come back in 6 weeks. That's a failed approach. 


Again, it's a big reason why so many people are suffering from digestive dysfunction! 

(Constipation, Diarrhea, Gas, Bloating etc.) 


If you're sick of the medical run around...then let's hop on a discovery call. No commitment, simply a chance to ask each other questions and determine if our GI protocol would make sense for you.

T. Chad McDannel, APRN, FNP-BC

Chad is a highly experienced Family Nurse Practitioner with over 12 years of nursing expertise, dedicated to delivering exceptional patient care. 

His journey in healthcare began as a patient, where he experienced firsthand the impact that compassionate and empathetic care can have.

Unfortunately, his initial experience fell short, leaving him feeling unheard and underserved. 

This pivotal moment sparked a passion to become the practitioner he needed at that time - one who listens, empathizes, and provides comprehensive and personalized care. 

Now, he strives to be that practitioner for his patients, combining expertise with a deep understanding of the patient experience, while continuing to staying at the forefront of medical advancements and evidence-based practices.

He lives in St. Petersburg, FL with his wife of over 15 years.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What Happens On The Discovery Call?

Very simple. Chad will ask you some questions, do a thorough health history, and determine if you're a case he can accept. If he thinks he can help he'll give you that option. If he doesn't think he can help, he'll work to find somebody who can.

Are Your Programs Safe?

ABSOLUTELY! Our protocols are extremely safe and there is nothing like it. There are very few practitioners that will do objective functional testing and work towards finding the ROOT CAUSE of the health challenge. Most simply give a med / chemical cover up.

Does Insurance Pay For Functional Medicine?

Unfortunately no insurance company pays for weight loss. However, if you're MOTIVATED we'll work with you. Our protocols are very affordable and keep in mind that we've never turned anybody away because of finances. 

Where Is Your Clinic Located?

We are 100% virtual. The beautiful thing about functional medicine and our functional approach is that it can be done from ANYWHERE! After our initial discovery call (to determine if our protocol makes sense for you) we'll provide you with test kits so TOGETHER we can customize a safe, natural, & highly effective protocol based on YOUR individual needs. 

Will I Have To Swallow A Lot Of Pills?

We will provide recommendations based on where you're nutrient deficient / depleted. Again, this is based on the testing that is performed. We'll give you supplement recommendations as well as give you food recommendations to eat more of that are abundant in the nutrients where you're depleted. 

Do You Provide Support / Accountability?

YES! Even though our functional protocols are done virtually, we provide Footer24/7 email support. If you have a question / obstacle to work through we'll provide you the support & guidance you need.
