My name is Angie King, and I am a integrative Registered Dietitian with a Master's Degree in Nutrition. I am based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In my personal life, I am primarily a mother, a wife, a yogi and a lover of The Arts. In my professional life, I am committed to helping others realize their path to optimal health. I work in a clinical pediatric setting and have my private practice, Gourmet Healer, as well. Through Gourmet Healer, I am helping clients to discover delicious ways to eat healthfully. Food is a powerful tool in igniting a health transformation and must be given attention if healing is to occur. No two people are alike and nor are there healing plans. Therefore, I look to many other other integrative disciplines for a team approach. I frequently refer my clients for Massage Therapy, Chinese Medicine and Accupuncture, Wholistic Kinesiology, Reiki and Intuitive Channeling, Life and Spiritual Coaching, Behavioral Counseling, Yoga, Physical and Occupational Therapy, Speech Language Pathology and more.
As for the work that I do, I take a holistic approach, and the plans I help my clients to create are highly individualized. I take a standard health, food and environmental history and also go a step further by obtaining functional nutrition lab testing to take a close look at individual metabolism. I prefer to base my diet and supplement recommendations on a person's actual needs, rather giving blanket diet and supplement recommendations that may be unnecessary and in some cases, harmful. For more details on testing, see the Functional Lab Testing page.
