Nutrition Coaching at Mind and Body
Hello! My name is Kim Symons, and I am the Practice Manager and Nutrition Coach at Mind and Body Solutions. I am a Certified Nutritional Health Coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences with an emphasis in Health and Wellness. My role is to help you turn your health recommendations into practical, sustainable changes that work in your everyday life. I work alongside our clinical team to support your individualized care plan, with a strong focus on nutrition, metabolic health, lifestyle habits, and long-term success. Together, we can focus on helping you understand what to eat, why it matters, and how to make it work for your specific needs and goals. Depending on your individual situation, this may include: - Reviewing your current eating habits and identifying areas for improvement - Creating personalized meal plans and food recommendations - Identifying foods that may be contributing to inflammation or unwanted symptoms - Increasing protein and nutrient intake - Improving blood sugar balance - Navigating food sensitivities, dietary restrictions, or other nutritional concerns - Developing realistic strategies for grocery shopping, meal preparation, dining out, and everyday life A large part of nutrition coaching is also education. During our visits, I can help you better understand topics such as blood sugar regulation, protein needs, healthy fats, carbohydrates, meal timing, hydration, inflammation, and how nutrition can support your overall treatment plan. Rather than simply giving you a diet to follow, my goal is to help you understand your choices and build healthy habits you can maintain long-term. I also provide ongoing support and accountability. During follow-up visits, we will review your progress, discuss what is and isn't working, troubleshoot challenges, make realistic adjustments, and continue moving toward your health goals. While even one nutrition coaching session can be beneficial, meaningful and lasting change usually takes time. For this reason, I typically recommend 4–6 visits, depending on your individual needs and goals. Appointments are 45 minutes, $60 per visit, and are generally scheduled about two weeks apart to give you time to implement what we discuss before we meet again.

The problem with PEANUT BUTTER
Peanuts are roughly half fat by weight. Which fat you get depends entirely on the variety of peanut you start with, and that's where things go sideways. A standard peanut runs up to 30% linoleic acid, an omega-6 polyunsaturated fat. That's the same fat family that makes up the bulk of seed oils, the ones I've been telling you to get out of your kitchen for years. The problem is structural. Linoleic acid has two double bonds, and double bonds are where oxidation attacks. Oleic acid, the monounsaturated fat that makes up most of olive oil, has one. Fewer double bonds, slower oxidation. So a jar of conventional peanut butter is degrading the whole time it sits in your pantry. By the time you scrape the bottom of it, you're eating oxidized fat. Which means it’s rancid, in plain English. Then there's the mold problem. Peanuts grow underground, get harvested wet, and sit in storage. That's close to ideal conditions for the molds that produce aflatoxins, which is why peanuts are one of the most aflatoxin-tested crops in the world. Better options would be almond butter, sunflower, etc. anything but peanuts (and cashews which have similar issues as peanuts)
