Hormone Imbalance: The Impact of Nutrition and Sleep on Physical & Cognitive Recovery

Cindi Lockhart, RDN, LD, IFNCP, is board-certified as an integrative and functional nutrition practitioner with over 27 years in professional practice. She has trained nutrition, fitness, and medical practitioners throughout most of her career yet maintains a personal practice with clients/patients as she believes that the only way she can effectively educate and inspire other practitioners is through her own practical experience with clients. In addition to educating on how Food is Medicine, Cindi also specializes in coaching clients and practitioners on the importance of managing stress, optimizing sleep, proper exercise and movement, and reducing exposure to environmental toxins. Cindi completed her dietetics degree at the University of Illinois – Urbana and her clinical internship in Boston at Harvard’s Brigham & Women’s Hospital. Although conventionally trained as a dietitian, Cindi quickly realized that a conventional approach did not fulfill her philosophy of optimizing one’s health and function. She felt then that it was vital for her to pursue an integrative and functional approach to nutrition and medicine. Over the years, Cindi has achieved multiple certifications and accreditations: Certified Health Care Provider: Metagenics First Line Therapy program Certified Health & Wellness Coach: Wellcoaches Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice as well as their Hormone module: The Institute of Functional Medicine (IFM) Certified Integrative & Functional Nutrition Practitioner: The Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy (IFNA) Cindi also has extensive expertise in women’s health issues including hormonal imbalances, infertility, thyroid dysfunction, autoimmunity and gut health.
