Functional Nutrition/Medicine in Wilmington
A Personalized Approach to Health
At Simple Well Being, LLC, Dr. Amanda Keates takes a complete, in-depth approach to functional nutrition that looks beyond symptoms to identify root causes. Many patients seek help for GI issues, thyroid concerns, brain fog, or hormone imbalances—all of which often tie back to autoimmune dysfunction.
Her process starts with a complete health history and assessment, including review of existing lab work. Rather than chasing symptoms, she identifies the patterns affecting your health and crafts solutions for lasting wellness.
Discovering Hidden Imbalances
Food sensitivity testing can reveal powerful insights that standard methods miss. “I found out that I couldn’t have Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, oranges, and oats—all foods you eat to lose weight,” Dr. Amanda shares. “It never occurred to me that something supposedly good for me could actually be harming me.” This testing evaluates your unique response to 170 foods, often uncovering surprising links between diet and chronic issues.
Finding What Conventional Testing Misses
Dr. Amanda uses advanced tools to uncover what standard tests may miss. “You’ll find low-level viruses, bacterial or fungal infections in the gut or sinuses, and thyroid issues most providers don’t check for,” she explains. This deeper look helps uncover root causes of inflammation, digestive troubles, immune dysfunction, and more.
Tailoring Your Holistic Care Plan
Based on test results, Dr. Amanda creates a personalized plan. “We don’t count calories. I don’t care how much food they eat or what they can have—we just cut down the inflammation.”
Her approach supports your body’s healing by removing inflammatory triggers. While some patients feel better within a week, healing tends to follow this rule: the number of years you’ve had the issue often equals the number of weeks it takes to see full results.
Ongoing Support for Optimal Health
Dr. Amanda schedules regular follow-ups to track progress and adjust care. “Typically, after three or four visits, I won’t see them for three or four months, then quarterly.” This seasonal approach reflects how body systems face different challenges throughout the year, allowing you to stay ahead of potential issues and maintain wellness year-round.
