Hi, I'm Carlyng
(but you can call me Carly for short, because let's be honest it's easier to say.)
I'm a RHNP™ (Registered Holistic Nutrition Practitioner) offering gut health nutrition consulting, for progressive individuals, wanting to understand how to revolutionize their microbiome through a plant forward diet.
​
Does this mean you need to be vegan to work with me? No.
Vegetarian? Not even close.
​
All you need to be willing to do is increase your plant points, because the more plant points we get, the more diverse our microbiome becomes. And with diversity comes a healthier gut! Don't we all want that?
​
Not only will diversity of our gut bacteria benefit the health of our microbiome, but all other aspects of our health as well.
Has your doctor ever given you the "its all in your head" speech or the "you'll just have to live with it" diagnosis?
Then you're in the right place! I've been there, heard that and dealt with the years of frustration already and I believe that everyone has the right to live a happy, healthy, symptom free life....that includes, incredible number twos. Because yes we should be pooping daily. I use evidence based nutrition and diet strategies, that are plant focused, to help my clients better understand what is happening in their microbiome and how we can correct it without having to eliminate entire food groups or implement an arms length list of supplements.
​
Now more than ever, with the rise of chronic diseases, (obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, depression, etc.) we need transparency when it comes to our gut health. I'm on a mission to give exactly that to my clients. I'm going to help you cut through the BS and provide you with the answers and long term solutions you need, because you deserve more than a Band-Aid solution.
What I offer...
You want to feel better, but you just don't know were to start! I know how you feel, I've been there and I've found the light at the end of the tunnel. I offer 1:1 programs, where I help you understand the science and push past the CRAP (pun intended).
​
Trying to navigate the world of health and wellness can be confusing and overwhelming. I get it, there are far more mixed messages out there, not to mention lack of research to back up the claims, than there are actual answers. You want to be able to enjoy food and life, while truly loving your body again, but how? You feel stuck. Any of this sounding familiar yet? Between the expensive tests, failed recommendations, elimination diets (thanks to Instagram, Tik Tok and Dr. Google) and endless lists of supplements, you've given up and I don't blame you.
Today's health and wellness industry is worth approximately 5.6 trillion USD, that's because it has become an industry of marketing and sales rather than science. It's my job to lay out the facts in a way that you can actually digest. I'm hear to tell you as a RHNP™, who specializes in gut health and plant focused diets, I can help you find your solution and feel at peace with your health and body again. I use a customized approach with trusted evidence based nutrition strategies, which help my clients to repair their microbiome and optimize their gut health, ultimately upleveling all other aspects of their health in the process. My approach, sets my clients up for success, by learning how to incorporate proper strategies to build long term sustainable habits that will help to improve their overall health. By the end of our time together, my goal is for you to feel confident enough to carry on by yourself. I want my clients to have independence and a sense of ease with their diet upon completion of the program.
​
My job as your practitioner is to help you create the foundations you desire and need to transform your gut and overall health and yours is to implement those foundations with the tools we've built together to carry on without me.

Ready for epic number twos?
All joking aside, yes we should be having daily bowel movements, that don't come with an array of symptoms. Can you tell I'm comfortable talking about poop? Well if you want your health to be epic too, you'll need to get comfortable as well. I'll need to understand the full scope of your symptoms, in order to offer you a solution that isn't complicated and takes all of the guess work out for you. If you're ready to stop tolerating your symptoms and start putting your health first, lets chat!
I've struggled with being overweight and extremely unhealthy for my entire life, until working with Carly. She's a wealth of knowledge, patient, and very personable. She's made my journey on being the best I can, a rewarding, manageable and enjoyable one. I'm forever grateful for this experience and I highly recommend Carly to work with as your Holistic Nutritionist. Thank you, Carly!
