Hi, my name is Emily Horton! I am a Registered Nurse and Board Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. I grew up in Simpsonville SC, in what used to be a small little town. After high school I decided to complete my education at the College of Charleston with a Bachelor of Science in Anthropology. Thinking I had my life figured out I quickly realized finding a job in anthropology proved to be more difficult than I thought. After a lot of praying, I realized that my passion for people would lead me to nursing. 

I worked in the hospital setting for over a decade to finally realize there had to be a better way. As valuable as my education was to me I felt a drive to learn more about functional wellness. After seeing my son battle severe eczema and being placed on topical medication that was so strong even the pharmacist did not want to fill it because they felt it was too toxic for him. I felt helpless as a parent. When I hit my forties, I started to notice increasing brain fog, extreme fatigue, and weight gain around the middle. It seemed like I was constantly caught in a fight or flight state. I went to several doctors and had the usual test done only to be told my bloodwork looked normal and ”welcome to your forties”. Well, that was unacceptable. I knew I needed answers. This lit a fire in me and I decided that I would take my health into my own hands. Functional Diagnostic Nutrition was the answer that I had been praying for! It has given me a better understanding of how unique our bodies are and by implementing healthy habits and lifestyle changes we can dramatically reduce or reverse chronic illness.

I would love the opportunity to help you on your journey to better health! If you would like more information or have any questions please book a Discovery call below.
