72. Transforming Health from the Inside Out: Gut Health and Nutrition with Daina Rasutis

What if you could achieve consistently clear skin and better gut health with a science-driven approach?

In this episode, I sit down with Daina Rasutis. From Civil Engineer to Nutrition Therapist Master, Daina utilizes her science background to implement a bio-individualized approach to nutrition. Diana shares her personal health journey, from struggling with adult acne and fatigue to discovering the power of nutrition and functional testing. We discuss the benefits of the GI map stool test and food sensitivity testing, exploring how these tools can identify internal triggers and guide personalized dietary changes for lasting results.

She explains why addressing both food sensitivities and gut health together is essential for effective healing, and how targeted testing helps pinpoint the foods and supplements that are right for your body.

Tune in to learn how targeted testing can guide your path to optimized gut health, reduce inflammation, and help you thrive!

Topics We Cover in This Episode: 

  • Daina’s personal health journey and how it inspired her transition from civil engineer to nutrition therapist.
  • The GI map stool test: What it reveals about your gut health, such as parasites, yeast overgrowth, and digestive enzyme imbalances.
  • Food sensitivity testing: How it helps heal the gut and prevent irritation
  • Why you need to address both food sensitivities and gut health simultaneously for effective healing.
  • All about functional tests: What types of tests are out there, and what to know about them! 
  • The importance of a bio-individualized approach to nutrition and why one-size-fits-all diets don’t work.
  • The importance of gut health in managing skin conditions like adult acne.
  • Why functional testing is an essential tool for women in midlife navigating hormonal changes and digestive issues.
