“Sammi was knowledgeable and encouraging for the bit of a lifestyle change that I had to do due to my sensitivities. Thankfully, she was able to help and literally change my life for the better and how I felt was a complete transformation. Thank you very much.”

“Working with Samantha has been such a blessing. She has truly changed my life. Before I first started working with Samantha a year and a half ago, I was feeling truly disheartened. I could not eat much without being in loads of discomfort, my energy was constantly depleted, and I suffered from acne, to name a few physical symptoms. During this time I was also experiencing a big dip in my mental health and was trying to recover from a harmful mindset regarding food, yet I was feeling so lost. Yet, I truly believe that it was by God's grace I found Samantha and Eat for Life. I thought I had been trying everything before meeting Samantha. I was about ready to throw up my hands and simply accept the discomfort I was, in and just suffer through it for life. Now a year and a half later I am somewhere where I never imagined I would be. I have no stomach aches, the clearest skin I have ever had, loads of energy, healed my relationship with food, and am in the best mental state I have ever been in. I truly feel and act like a different person. After so many years of silently suffering, I don't think I imagined I would or even could be in the place I am now, thanks to Samantha. She is so thoughtful, and kind, truly cares about her clients and is willing to work with you through the hard times, even when things take a while. I 100% recommend working with Samantha. For me, it did take diligence and patience to follow my protocol, but the wait and effort was so beyond worth it. The best decision I ever made!”

“I’ve only been working with Sami about 6 weeks to improve the health of my gut. We haven’t even started the process to eliminate bacterial overgrowth as we are just getting my gut more functional. Surprisingly I have noticed to elimination of menopausal hot flashes, better sleep, more energy, and interestingly several years ago I started to have foot discomfort when I first got of bed in the morning. This has substantially diminished and I hopeful it will go away completely. I feel really good about the investment I’m making in my health. Sami’s scope of knowledge about the gut is tremendous.”

“Sami is a God send! I am so thankful for her being such a huge part of my health journey. I had spent a lot of time and research and a lot of money before it led me to her. She is incredibly knowledgeable and thorough, as well as kind and understanding. I had previously went to a different fucntional medicine dr and spent a very large amount of money working on autoimmune, hormones, mood, weight, fatigue, etc. The list goes on and on. I just didn't feel like I was getting what I needed out of that program and had spent a lot of time listening to Sami's podcasts and researching her website and new she was my missing puzzle piece. I feel the best I have in my entire life including my teen years. For the first time in my life my menstrual cycle is regular and I am off birth control (was on for 15 years), my gut is healing and I have no heartburn or issues like I did with my stomach previously, my mood is at its best, my autoimmune condition is no longer a constant burden, my pain is gone, and my energy levels are so much better! Because of the modern medical system I believed that I wouldn't be able to get pregnant, because of the Hashimotos condition and having endometriosis and now I know that my body is far more powerful and you can heal, too! I am so beyond grateful for Sami and her program. If you truly want your health and your life back and are willing to take the steps and follow Sami's lead then do it! It is beyond worth it. I hope you take your control back and live the life you truly deserve! xx”

“Working with Samantha seriously changed my life. I wanted to stop taking my Prozac and Birth Control pills, and I knew to do this successfully I would need to heal with whole foods. I was afraid if I tried on my own my anxiety and OCD would probably be worse than ever, with no one to guide me. Through lab work, she showed me how wrecked my gut was, along with other things such as a copper toxicity and low zinc. Once I started her protocol for me, I immediacy felt a difference on how I was feeling. We cut out processed sugars, dairy, bread and seafood. I could see my body changing, going through a detox and my skin was glowing. I not only looked better on the outside, but I now have more energy, my brain fog cleared up, I am able to retrieve words better, my anxiety is less, I don’t crash in the afternoon, I just overall feel like I have a better grasp on my OCD and anxiety. She was there to answer any of my questions and updated my protocols as we progressed. Through her guidance and tools given, I can continue this as a life style. Thank you Sami!!”

“Sami has helped me so much! I started working with Sami at the end of spring 2023. I had consistent mood and digestive issues that persisted despite cleaning up my diet. Sami had me do several tests to determine what my baselines for different vitamins, minerals and other biomarkers were and then prescribed a nutrient regimen to help eliminate the imbalances I had. I still can't believe that simple vitamins and nutrients can have such a broad effect on my mental health. Even more surprising, I learned that certain foods I ate regularly were contributing to my mental and physical health issues due to my body not tolerating them well. I still have work to do but I've made a lot of progress. Thank you, Sami! I understand that it's a tough situation to afford the cost of functional medicine as health insurance plans don't provide coverage. It’s been worth every penny. Insurance companies and the traditional allopathic healthcare providers have us trapped in a cycle of services that depend on patients staying sick. Nothing is ever cured; the broken healthcare system just treats our symptoms (with prescription medication). If you're tired of being sick, Sami can help.”

“My diet was a disaster until Sami helped me. I was eating all the wrong foods, which was affecting my mental health. By adjusting my current diet to a custom diet just for me, within weeks my mental health was improved. Testing showed I was experiencing hypoglycemia, high copper toxicity and Pyroluria. Sami was able to eliminate these symptoms. She improved my undermelhylation tremendously. I have more awareness now because of her diet. I'm so lucky to be a patient of hers.”

“The value of partnership has become more important to me...in love, in work, and in health. Samantha (Sami) is one of my prized partners. On my own, I have tried many ways to improve my health. But in less than one year, Sami has helped me improve dramatically. However, she does not wave a magic wand! She needs feedback, so I have to pay attention. Then she adjusts as we go forward. I heartily recommend reaching out to Sami if you want a health partner who is educated, compassionate and wonderful.”

“Sami is very detailed in listening and writing personalized protocols for what your health improvement needs. We started 6 months ago with my husband’s Parkinson’s. We have always used alternative health modalities and NO western medicine. In the first 3 weeks was his first symptom change which was improved sleep! We knew more would keep following after that because sleep is so important, the body can only start to improve with that. This will be a much longer time for us to continue working with Sami than some others, but prior to Sami, we have worked on this for 12 years and this is honestly the best improvements we have seen from individual nutrients as opposed to combination supplements. My husband was using a sit down power scooter when we started and that has now been parked after the first 3 months of this protocol. His legs were weak and are now much stronger! . This is a time and patience process for the body to make its changes of improvement We are invested in our determination to continue this process with Sami on our side!! Sami is very easy to work with and discuss all options to try for your needs. You will be very happy you got her on your side too!! Lori Christian”

“Samantha is an absolute game-changer! After years of grappling with PCOS and trying various approaches, her tailored program finally brought tangible results. Her expertise, personalized tests, and dedicated approach transformed not just how I felt but also addressed underlying issues. Samantha is a true godsend for anyone navigating complex health challenges. Samantha's brilliance extends beyond nutrition—her smart, gracious, and supportive approach on a human level is unparalleled. She listens attentively, delving into your concerns, and then seamlessly backs her advice with meticulous data and research. Her ability to blend empathy with evidence makes the journey not just effective but also empowering. She's not just a nutritionist; she's a guide, armed with knowledge and kindness.”

“Sami has been an amazing help to my health journey. I learned a lot about diet/ nutrition and what foods I should avoid. Sami listens and is very patient and caring. The tools she has given me are invaluable and I can carry with me into the future to continue bettering my health. I tried for years to figure out what was wrong with me on my own and I wish I could go back in time and hire her years ago.”

“I have been struggling with inflammation throughout my entire body for the majority of my life. Sami has shown me that this is not the way that things have to be and I am so grateful for that. My anxiety levels have decreased tenfold and I am able to enjoy everyday life so much more. I still have progress to make but I look forward to continuing on this journey!”

“I found Sami when I was at a dead-end. I highly suspected I was copper toxic and had been searching for someone to help me for over a year. From the moment I first contacted Sami, she has been kind, professional, and very easy to communicate with. She took the time to fully understand everything I've dealt with (something no doctor has ever done), and as a result was not only able to discover my copper toxicity levels but also that I had a bacterial gut infection. I had no idea this was another issue contributing to my extreme host of chronic symptoms that have unraveled so many things in my life. The healing I've experienced since starting the protocol Sami created for me is unbelievable. In just one month, I feel better than I have in years. I have more energy, am happier, can think more clearly, hives and acne have cleared from my skin, my PCOS symptoms have started to go away, my entire body has become less inflamed to the point where I have dropped an entire pant size - the list goes on. I can't recommend working with Sami enough. I wasn't receiving any of the care I needed from any of my doctors, and believe I was on a path of destruction with my health that I didn't know how to change. Sami had the knowledge and expertise to guide me and truly changed my life. It's not easy to alter your lifestyle to find true healing, but with Sami's protocol and support I have been able to.”

“Sami G is a wealth of knowledge! I thank God I found her when I did. I was experiencing panic attacks, depression, and severe anxiety. After lab testing, we discovered high levels of inflammation (histamine and homocysteine levels) indicating undermethylation. Sami G was so patient and kind during every appointment. This new information was very overwhelming at first and it was hard to process, but Sami stayed with me every step of the way encouraging me to go at the pace I could handle. So very grateful to work with a practitioner that listens! After 4 weeks of dietary changes and recommended supplements, I saw significant improvement in my symptoms. After several months my inflammation markers were no longer elevated! I couldn't believe it! I am so grateful for finding Sami and highly recommend her as a practitioner.”

“I was encumbered by several health issues. I sought out Sammy Gilbert to find some health solutions. In my evaluation, Sammy pointed out that my daily habit of smoking marijuana was a major contributor to my health problems. Even though I knew that daily smoking was not the best for me, I was unaware of all of the toxins I was exposing my body to. She educated me on the side effects and Subtle effects that marijuana was having on my physical being. Through gentle guidance and our therapeutic talks, she helped me curb the desire to indulge every day. Consequently, my health, brain function, and physical energy dramatically improved. I am so grateful to Sammy for this change and am certain that I would’ve not been able to do it without her guidance and support. If you are struggling with this addiction, and are willing to make a change, Sammy Gilbert is a wonderful resource to help you along this path of healing. With gratitude Sammy. V.”

Thanks V! I'm so proud of you! The negative mental health impacts that marijuana have on the brain (including CBD products) are not widely known so I'm glad we were able to get resolution for you. Keep up the great work!

“Samantha is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. Best of all, she gets results and she listens to your concerns. I spent over four years working with multiple naturopathic doctors who couldn't help me the way that Samantha has in less than a year. My anxiety, irritability, and mood swings have decreased substantially because of Samantha's protocols. Samantha is way more than a functional nutritionist. If she treats any of the conditions that you may be experiencing, I suggest contacting her immediately.”

“Sami is the first practitioner to understand my needs and my sensitivities. I am one of those people who does not fit "the mold" of someone who can just do any treatment or take just any supplement or medication. Sami helped ease me slowly into taking the correct supplements and nutrition protocol based on laboratory tests and science, not just guesses. I am feeling so much better, and while I am only 3 months in, I am hopeful it will continue to keep getting better. Thanks Sami!”

My pleasure! Severe sensitivities take time to heal. Going slow and micro dosing are the keys to success. Thank you for being patient with the process. I am honored to continue to support you in your healing journey.

“Samantha came into my life through a referral. I am so thankful for her! She is so knowledgeable and patient with you. Listens so well to all of your concerns and answers each question thoroughly. With her help on how to move forward with my son being Autistic, she developed a protocol that was specific to his needs to heal and get better. I have seen such progress with my son and how better engaged he is with me, very very few behaviors, and he has been following directions better change is really hard for my son, but he has not been bothered by changes in routines! I am so happy and couldn't have gotten to this point without her help. Nutrition is so key and Samantha is the best!”
