What People Are Saying


"Anita, you need to tell people that this process with you is LITERALLY Transformational. My "before" was crap: pain, suffering, and weight gain.

My "after" is looking like a 30 yr old, I have more energy, NO gut pain and bloating, and was accused of using Ozempic! Amazing, and I am in your forever fan club!"

Megan, age 43


“Wrenching gut pain and fatigue gone. ❤️ I’m so blessed that I knew you at just the right time to help me when no one else would! My stomach pain and daily misery is gone. My hair, nails, and skin look shiny and healthy, it makes me feel like I’m a NEW person, I truly didn’t believe it was possible at the start.”

Diane, age 55


“My body felt AMAZING while I was traveling! No food wonkiness, no pain or gas or bloat despite all the fat and changes – I was good! I feel pretty, and that says A LOT.”

Caroline, age 38


“Before I was in pain EVERY day - Gas, bloating, etc. I didn’t want to eat anything because everything just caused me pain in my stomach. I’d lost so much weight, my girlfriend finally pressed me to get some help. It’s hard to believe just how fast it shifted once we started! I have energy, and it’s still building! NO PAIN! I’m eating better and feel my health coming back!”

Gio, age 44

“People need to know they can do this! I was always struggling with recurrent candida, and getting it under control was a bear. But after learning all my data? It was clear what I needed to do specifically. Now my cholesterol is down 6 points, and my HDL is up 3 points. My candida is under control, and I know the signs! Anita has the patience and a passion for learning what's going on. That made all the difference.”

Melinda, age 44


Deborah - age 55

“I was very sick (sicker than I thought) and now am HEALED only 4 months later! Before I called on Anita, I was in terrible pain, and my body was not being properly nourished. I spent several months and lots of money getting tons of tests done to only be told I needed to live with the pain.

Luckily, I knew who to call! Working with Anita, we got the proper testing done to discern what was really going on. This included biomarkers for inflammation, parasite and bacteria (3 of them!). Also, leaky gut and diverticulitis. All of this I would have never known if I hadn't tried Functional Nutrition. With Anita's guidance and her network of resources, we were able to get me completely out of pain within 1 month - even from my gall bladder, which is loaded with stones, sciatica, and headaches! My clarity returned, my nails are stronger and normal color, I no longer take blood pressure medicine, and friends say even the whites of my eyes are brighter! There is so much more - I wish everyone could know! This was all accomplished by natural remedies and healthy foods. And I was able to learn SO much - I hope I can help and encourage others to functional medicine! The most unusual thing about what Anita does is SHE CARES! Give functional nutrition with Anita a try - you will not regret it.”

Kathy, age 52

“Anita, founder of Gut Healing Lab, has been a breath of fresh air to me. I have worked with many alternative/holistic/herbalists and have spent an enormous amount of money without truly getting what was needed for me to get well and lose weight.


Anita's website says that she is about getting to the root issues - the gut - and her method is about getting the data to start with. But Anita goes far beyond that. My primary doctor, who I conferenced in with Anita, looked at me in awe as she explained to him why adding other bloodwork was beneficial. He said with a big smile, "She is really good"! I replied, "She is great"! He admitted he truly does not know how to help his patients with gut issues.


Anita patiently teaches the whys in an extremely positive way, knowing the body can heal and wants to when given what it needs. She also sensitively hears and connects with me, and also my body. She has inspired me on my healing journey. I am filled with hope. After years of pain, I heard about Anita through my brother's holistic veterinarian. After a consultation, I said yes and after collecting data through various testing labs that conventional doctors do not do, and what she suggested based on the results, my body is feeling better and better! It is all measurable!

After being taught by her and now understanding my body's needs, for the first time I am confident in my healing and losing weight journey and naturally making healthier food choices. We also have more to explore with sleep, exercise, and meditation. I am looking forward to learning and doing more for myself and my body! I am also grateful to her as she said to me in the very first session that we are going to make your body safe and let nothing insult it. She did not know how that felt to me until I shared that my body had been unsafe since I was a child. She has a rare gift! A healing gift for the body, mind, and heart. I am so grateful to her.”
