the core four method
Why normal gets you no where when it comes to labs….
Most protocols jump straight into:
Fat loss diets (with or without GLP-1s)
Cortisol hacks (meditation, sleep optimization)
Fiber for gut health
But very few ask:
Is the liver overburdened?
Are drainage pathways open?
Are minerals being utilized properly?
Is the stomach actually breaking down nutrients?
Is the gallbladder supporting bile flow?
If those systems aren’t functioning well…
Everything downstream struggles.
Even with a “perfect” lifestyle.
After working with clients who had extensive lab panels, I realized something:
We always needed to give adequate time and energy to the most important step.
Supporting foundational organs before layering on complexity.
Your doctor is ordering the basic, normal, “Chronic Disease Markers” as I call them. Chances are these are either entirely unhelpful for you, you have no idea what the labs mean and you’re ready to take a more holistic, root-cause approach to tackle your persistent PMS, Endometriosis, PCOS or thyroid health.
Enter: The Four Core Method. As a functional and integrative dietitian, I practice from a lens of combining Western and Eastern medicine philosophies, meaning I integrate evidence-based strategies, like fiber and vitamins with timeless healing methods, like herbs, acupuncture and somatic therapies.
Over the last 7 years of healing my own cystic acne and painful periods, while also helping hundreds of women adapt healthier lifestyles and reverse symptoms naturally, I’ve learned there’s something missing from everyone’s goals. Addressing the liver, gallbladder and very beginning of the digestive process. These vital processes impact how we break down food, transmute it into energy and detoxify what’s not supposed to be in the body.
The four core method is for women who are eating “clean”, moving their bodies and doing everything seemingly right.
At the top of the Body Burden Cycle sits what I call:
The Core Organ Complex
Stomach
Colon
Liver
Gallbladder
When these systems are supported properly:
Inflammation lowers more naturally
Hormones regulate more efficiently
Insulin sensitivity improves
Minerals rebalance
The body becomes more responsive to positive lifestyle changes
