Linda Favreau
Genetic Counselor
Linda Favreau, CNC, is specializing in ‘nutritional genetic consulting’ and is passionate about helping others unlock the root cause behind their acute and chronic illnesses.  Linda founded Nutrition and Your Genes to help communicate her research to help others in the areas of epigenetics and nutrition; better known as 'nutrigenomics.' She believes in the importance of epigenetics and takes a ‘functional medicine approach’ with her clients. Along with this ‘functional medicine’ approach, she applies 'bio-individualized' nutritional programs for each client; derived from biochemical and physiological knowledge for the purpose of promoting good health while recognizing the individuality of each person.  Her speciality is in genetic variant report interpretations and ‘bio-individualized' nutritional programs for optimum wellness. She applies nutritional interventions for complex health issues (gastrointestinal imbalances, autoimmune conditions, Chronic Lyme, detoxification, MTHFR, mood issues, chemical sensitivity, weight loss, hormonal imbalances, POTS, PANS, PANDAS, and Spectrum Disorders.)   Her findings are based on results from ‘raw genetic data’ like 23 and Me or the new ‘Your Genomic Resource DNA Kit,’ MTHFR Support, MethylGenetic Nutritional Analysis, Dr. Lynch's StrateGene and Biochemical Pathways, a detailed health / family history; inclusive of current lab results, previous treatments and personal symptomatology. She believes you can ‘change your destiny’ and take control of your health by understanding your risk or propensity for disease through epigenetics.  “Never before has it been so easy and inexpensive to obtain your genetic information.” You are the rightful owner of your raw genetic data. We all have inherited loss of function genetic mutations, in combination with environmental influences and lifestyle choices, that may have caused us to become ill, and now we can participate in our own early intervention and/or prevention! We can discover why we currently feel so bad and what we can do about it. We can look at our genetic patterns (our personal blueprint) and make informed changes. Even more astounding, we can optimize the health of our future children!  I will help you unlock the mysteries of your genetic make-up and assist you in your healing journey whether you are an infant, child or an adult of any age. As a healthy survivor of Chronic Lyme, co-infections and a mold injury, along with a compound heterozygous MTHFR, I can help guide you through this overwhelming gauntlet of online information and create a strategy for wellness…you have suffered long enough.  I will help you unlock the mysteries of your genetic make-up and assist you in your healing journey. 'Your genes load the gun, your lifestyle pulls the trigger!' (Blog available at www. nutritionandyourgenes.com/my-blog)
