What Patients Are Saying

Testimonials

"I’ve battled chronic health issues, specifically fibromyalgia, for years. The constant pain and flare-ups took a toll on my body and mind. But after working with Carie for over a year, everything changed. My flares have dramatically decreased, and I feel more mentally stable than ever.

This journey has given me a healthier, more pain-free life, and I’ll always keep working with Carie—because true healing is possible!"

Janet D

Carie has changed my life. When I first started seeing her, I was taking pills for heartburn twice a day, Ime down to one and we are working on getting me off completely. I was taking antihistamines and Sudafed daily. I'm off all of them. I was taking blood pressure meds. I'm off of those and my blood pressure is back to normal. I've lost weight and feel amazing!!! She has also helped my mental state helping me to reset my brain. Carie truly cares about people and I see it everyday!! She is so knowledgeable about everything that has to do with health and getting your organs working the way they are meant to work! I love, Love , love her!! If you havent seen her, I highly recommend you do ASAP!!

Tami A.

I honestly feel like these vitamins have saved me! I know MS is supposed to go dormant when you're pregnant, but through this whole process, I've realized how important healing your gut is and choosing things that support you instead of just junk filling your body.  I wanna make sure my gut doesn't take the beating during this pregnancy!
I've never felt better!  I also think that's what made this whoopsie happen because my body was taken care of and able to function.

Whitney Holtby

I just wanted to thank you for helping my husband. There is no way he would have made it to his procedures without taking antibiotics if you hadn’t helped with natural supplements. They found severe diverticulitis and a spastic colon that was causing so much pain. He’s now on an anti-spasm medication that’s helping and he wants to continue taking natural supplements to heal his gut lining. So thanks! Keep up the great work!

Brigget E.

"Struggled with UTIs for most of my life—constantly on and off antibiotics. Over time, this led to antibiotic-resistant bacteria in my bladder, leaving me in pain with no real solutions except extreme medical procedures.

Then I started working with Carie on healing my gut and balancing my biome. Within just three months, my UTIs were completely gone. When the doctors ran cultures, there was no bacteria—just a healthy, healed body. If you’re stuck in the cycle of recurring infections and medications, there is another way!"

G.M.

I was diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia.  The pain initially started about 3 to 4 years ago.  I would get pains on the right side of my face that varied from small electric shocks to hot, searing, stabbing pain. I started having episodes daily.  Eventually, 3 to 5 times a day that was the hot searing stabbing pain.  I rated those an 8 or 9 on the pain scale. They were completely debilitating.  Since the change in diet and taking the supplements, I now have maybe one episode a week at most, ranking about a 3!!

 Why is wholefood important?

When it comes to supplements, many people focus solely on dosage—grabbing the highest number on the label and hoping for quick results. Unfortunately, these high-dose synthetic supplements often do more harm than good, pushing the body rather than nourishing it. This can lead to a frustrating cycle—temporarily relieving one issue while triggering another.

At Utah Foundational Nutrition, my approach is different. I prioritize whole food, nutrient-dense supplements that support the body’s natural healing processes, not override them. The products I use are carefully selected for their purity, potency, and origin—grown in organic, mineral-rich soil and processed with care to retain their natural integrity.

Many of these supplements include organ and glandular extracts, rich in bioavailable amino acids, to help the body rebuild and restore from the inside out. Unlike the 90% of supplements on the market that are synthetic and lifeless, these whole food options are alive with nutrients your body recognizes and can actually use.

This isn’t just about symptom relief—it’s about true, sustainable health through real nourishment.

My YouTube Channel

Weekly I post YouTube videos to help clear up misinformation and dive deeper into nutritional education.    I want to help educate you and grow your knowledge of nutrition. 

I discuss other lifestyle factors that impact our nutrition health such as nervous system balance/stress, environment, and foods that negatively impact digestive health.

FAT BURNING

HEALTHY FAT

Hydrate

Mineral water is very important to hydration.  You need minerals in the water to drive it in.  If you only have purified water it will pull minerals from the body to drive water in.   I had recommended Topo Chico but found out it has PFAS (fluoride).  I took this down.  Fiji is my first recommendation, yet having it out of plastic in glass is important so Moutain Valley is my go-to now.   Fiji does do BPA-free bottles.  

Break down your fats!

 When it comes to fat loss it has a lot to do with fat metabolism.  Your body needs fat to lose fat.  This is currently the L-Carnitine supplement I take.  I now have Ortho Molecular products that I sell, you can email me with your orders, or you can do Bulk supplements L Carnitine.  Link below. 

Healthy fat to burn fat

Using a good MCT (Medium Chain Trygliceride) coconut oil, aka liquid coconut oil, is a great way to help flush the liver and metabolize fat.   It will give you energy, support flushing the liver, and flush your bowels.   You do want organic and you do want pure coconut oil.

Green Tea

GREEN TEA

Fueling energy and weight loss

Green Tea is a way to boost energy which helps the body to shed weight.  Another Factor to Green tea is that the EGCG's help with the balance of visceral fat.  Green tea can be a form of fluoride so you do not want to overdo it.  You also should make sure you have enough Iodine in your body to keep a healthy balance for the thyroid.  

You should also make sure it is quality, organically sourced.  You don't need to add a toxic load by inorganic. 

Natural Soap

Using all-natural products is a great way to reduce toxicity.    Nettle is also a great way to help pull toxins out of the skin.  

I would recommend this soap for people with high inflammation and bacteria imbalance.

Glutamine 

Glutamine is an amino acid specific to gut health.  The body produces this amino acid, yet when we are sick of we are pushing the body to work hard.  It may not have enough to support gut health and rebuilding.  Glutamine supports brain fucntion, gut health, and over all repair and recovery in the body.  I take  1 serving in my drinks 2-3 times a day.

MY STORY

2A4A1538.jpg

I began my journey in the health and nutrition field over 10 years ago. It all started when I entered the world of competitive bodybuilding. Since then, I have taken my passion for health to a new level through my studies at Purdue Global Univerisity, where I graduated with Honors. I am currently working as a Clinical Nutritionist in the Holistic Health industry. I have learned how important it is to feed our bodies through whole-food interventions and I love sharing this empowering knowledge with others. It was why I founded Utah Foundational Nutrition over 5 years ago.

 

Sadly, I have found that so many health professionals focus only on treating symptoms rather than looking at the root cause of health issues. I stand out from the others because of my foundational approach to assessing the specific health and nutrition needs of my patients. It's not a one-size-fits-all approach. Our bodies are unique so my programs are tailored to foundationally support your body and mental health through whole food supplements and diet protocols while educating you on these topics and their impact on your overall health.

 

I have a close interactive relationship with my patients. I will personally walk with you and guide you through your health journey. Please reach out if you, or someone you know, could benefit from my services.
