Holly Bradich is a functional holistic nutritionist BSc., with a passion for gut health and a holistic, mind-body approach to healing.
From her own personal journey with IBS, burnout, chronic heartburn, food sensitivities, insomnia, migraines, chronic fatigue and chronic pain, Holly became passionate about helping other women to heal and fast track their own gut healing journey by combining the latest science of gut microbiome healing with the power of the mind-body healing.
Holly holds degrees in both applied human nutrition from the University of Guelph and Psychology from the University of Waterloo.
With over 8 years in the wellness industry and over 7 years in private practice, Holly has helped hundreds of midlife women break up with restrictive diets, banish bloating, brain fog and burnout get their body, and their life back.
Holly offers a judgement-free, safe space of empowerment, education, inspiration and support.
She works with motivated midlife women and empowers them to take control of their health with sustainable changes that work for even the busiest woman.
She believes food should be enjoyed and views food as nourishment with a focus on which foods to add more of over restrictive, unrealistic diets or cleanses.
Rather than meal plans, she provides structured guidance on how to build balanced meals that work for your body, food substitutions for those with food sensitivities and recipes.
She offers support for a variety of diets and gut health concerns including low FODMAP, SCD diet, gluten-free, Paleo, vegan and vegetarian and low histamine.
She uses evidence based, professional supplements and encourages clients to make gradual lifestyle changes including regular movement, mindfulness practices and sleep hygiene. Holly works with every client to optimize their gut microbiome, a critical piece of gut healing. To do this, she offers stool testing including the GI MAP and GI 360. From the results, she builds a personalized plan to restore balance to the gut microbiome using a 4 step functional medicine protocol called the 4R protocol.
She specializes in:
- Digestive disorders: IBS, Food Sensitivities, Acid Reflux/GERD and LPR, SIBO, gastritis, histamine intolerance
- Chronic inflammation and allergies
- Metabolic illness: fatty liver, high cholesterol, prediabetes and diabetes, PCOS
- Supporting mental wellness
- Insomnia, chronic fatigue & burnout recovery
- Brain fog and cognitive performance
- Gentle, sustainable weight loss
What keeps Holly inspired is knowing that she’s truly making a difference & transforming women’s lives – it’s about so much more than banishing the bloat, her clients aren’t just healing their gut, they’re conquering food fear and mastering midlife so they can go from surviving to thriving!
