About Diane Herth

I began my HOLISTIC journey into FUNCTIONAL medicine* by default, as a parent seeking personal knowledge and the best health care practices for my children, and as a frustrated patient looking for the CAUSE of my constant exhaustion, overall pain, brain fog and digestive issues.
My personal research led me to an Internist turned Functional Medicine physician and a Nurse Practitioner who discovered I had Lyme Disease and decades of gut health issues. Their wealth of knowledge and time commitment ultimately turned my health around, and led me to want to share LIFESTYLE MEDICINE with others as an Integrated Nutrition Health Coach. Today I am pain-free, joy-filled, grateful, and healthier than I have been in 20 years. I have more energy than ever, after focusing on my WHOLE health.
*Functional medicine looks at the whole body as an interconnected web rather than separate systems.

In 2017, I began my two year certification at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition with focused studies on the microbiome (gut health), and then continued on to become certified in Yin Yoga, Meditation and Chinese Meridians at the Summers School of Yin Yoga and Meditation. My personal experience as a patient and my health training gives me a UNIQUE and EMPATHETIC perspective coaching clients. My coursework with the world's top health and wellness experts covered goal setting, practical lifestyle management techniques and over 100 dietary theories – Mediterranean, gluten-free, low FODMAP, Paleo, Pagan, vegan, and everything in between.
I love coaching clients to become attuned to their bodies and create a lifestyle that fuels longevity with wellness, energy, and confidence. I guide my clients to discover their body's needs with innovative coaching methods and practical lifestyle management techniques including PHYSICAL MOVEMENT, REMOVING TOXINS, EMOTIONAL HEALTH, and consuming WHOLE (unprocessed) FOOD.
I have always been an advocate for people struggling. In addition to raising our three children and working outside our home in retail marketing, I was a Special Education volunteer advocate for 8 years, and I am one of 2 million Rotarians whose goal is to serve others. I LOVE helping people and feel the purpose of my TWO decade journey was to be able to help others rediscover their health, happiness, and peace.
I look forward to COACHING WHOLE HEALTH in you.
