Borderline is information, not a verdict.
It is also the easiest point at which to change something.
How We Can Help · Metabolic Health
Metabolic health nutrition support.
Blood sugar, cholesterol, cravings, and numbers that have started drifting. This is not a weight-loss service — it is about what is driving the numbers.
Who this is for
You may recognise some of this.
Bloodwork that came back borderline, with no advice beyond watching it. Cholesterol that has crept up over three annual checks. Cravings at four o’clock and again after dinner. A shape that has changed without anything else changing. Or a family history you have been quietly aware of for years.
This is not a weight-loss service. Weight may change and it may not; what matters is what is driving the numbers — what you eat and when, how you sleep, how much you move, stress, and where your own biology differs from the average. The work is on the pattern, not the scale.
Cravings are a pattern, not a weakness.
They usually follow what happened earlier in the day.
The scale is one measure among several.
Bloodwork, energy, sleep and waist all say something it does not.
Areas of support
What people come to me with.
| Blood sugar patterns | Energy that rises and falls with meals, and cravings that follow a schedule. |
| Cholesterol and bloodwork | Numbers that have moved, and what food and lifestyle can and cannot do about them. |
| Cravings and appetite | Hunger that does not match what you have eaten. |
| Metabolic change in midlife | When the same habits stop producing the same results. |
| Family history | Knowing what runs in your family, and what is worth doing early. |
| Working alongside your doctor | Nutrition support that sits beside medical care, not instead of it. |
Why Katia
Not a weight-loss service.
Most metabolic advice arrives as a diet, and most diets work until they stop. Katia does not sell one. The work is to find out what is actually driving your numbers, change the few things that matter most, and build something you can still be doing in a year — which is the only timescale on which any of this counts.

How we work together
Three months, three conversations.
Long enough for a change to show up somewhere other than on the scale.
01. The first conversation
Your history, your bloodwork if you have it, and what a normal day of eating actually looks like.
02. The plan.
What to change, in what order, and why.
03. Two follow-ups
Across three months, which is roughly when bloodwork starts to be worth repeating. Some people stop there. Others carry on with occasional follow-ups.
Kind words
Feedback from clients.
“I have never been happier and more confident that what I put in is making me feel great.”
“I could never understand how people could live without carbs like pasta and rice. But now I know I can feel full with protein and veggies.”
“The hunger attacks stopped — when I wanted to eat everything in the fridge. I am not drawn to sweet things. Chocolate, ice cream, cakes — I stopped loving them. If I want something, it is nuts or seeds. Now that is my treat.”
Questions
Questions about metabolic health support.
What does metabolic health support look at?
The conversation may include meals, energy, movement, sleep, stress, symptoms, history and goals. Recommendations are shaped around your context rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Will I be given a strict diet?
The focus is practical, food-first guidance that can fit everyday life. Any changes are agreed together and reviewed as you learn what works.
Do I need blood tests before we start?
Not necessarily. Bring recent results if you have them; testing is discussed only when it may add useful information to the plan.
Where to start
Bring the numbers you were told to keep an eye on.
Watching them is not the same as doing something about them.
