About

Welcome!

Known as The Gut Detox Coach, I (Nicole Burgner) am a woman of many hats: work from home Mom, back-yard gardener, homesteader, tennis player, lover of the culinary sciences, joyful wife and mother, and child of our Lord God and Savior.

My journey toward becoming a health coach has been nothing short of intense. My desire has always been to help people, but to do it the right way. Over the course of my life, I’ve learned that there are many modes of addressing illness and health conditions, but it was not until years ago that I learned what real medicine was – functional and alternative medicine, that is!

Ever since childhood, my chronic sinus congestion, hormone imbalance, and digestive problems (constipation, bloat, pain) were “just a Nicole thing.” No doctor could ever tell me why I suffered with these problems but could only offer a pill or procedure. Similarly, after getting married, I came off of the pill (OBC) and immediately had fatigue, amenorrhea, infertility, and chronic constipation. Jumping from doctor to doctor and on and off medications, I only got worse. Despite my downward spiral, I was confident there was an answer out there for me. Eventually, through years of research, self-implementation, using alternative practitioners, and spending tens of thousands of dollars, I learned about the root causes of diseases and health ailments.

Furthermore, I learned that even just diet, exercise, detox, and supplementation was not enough. (Who wants to HAVE TO be on the same diet or pills for the rest of their lives, anyway?)

“Why wasn’t this type of research and science common knowledge? I mean, we actually HAVE answers to this epidemic of chronic disease and unknown issues of health? This isn’t just because of our own bad genetics or because we have a ‘bad’ body?“

No, it’s not.

Having learned about my own body and now that of many others’, I’ve developed the answers toward sustained weight loss, enhanced energy, a sharp mind, cleared sinuses, vanquished anxiety and depression, balanced hormones and thyroid, infertility, and a myriad of other symptoms; I know how to help others get my same outcome of better health for the long term.

This experience paved the way toward my becoming a functional medicine coach. Today, I help my clients get their health back by giving them the attention, accountability, education, and direction that they need.

I invite the dismissed cases. I thwart the band-aid approach mindset. I help people, like yourself, be heard and get the results that they’ve sought for too long. Depression, anxiety, fatigue, brain fog, digestive distress, clinging weight, autoimmine … These are all just symptoms of an underlying cause. No doctor ever thought or knew how to properly test me for these symptoms until I found the right guidance and instruction. THEN I started seeing results.

My journey better unfolds in my blog, where I am more detailed and discuss a bit more of the nitty-gritty of what it was like living life with a chronic illness.

I also have two past blogs for some interesting reads. The first focuses on interning in France the second is more about food. My newest blog discusses health, nutrition, food, Christ, and life journeys. We’re always learning, so I hope I can share something new with you and perhaps learn from you too!
