gut health nutritionist

Hi!

I'm Sofia Sipinen,

a Holistic Nutritionist and

the founder of Two Thirds Nutrition.

I have a passion for all things gut health

- and I want to help people improve their well-being through nutrition and lifestyle.

But here's what I know about you..

Since you have found my page, you can probably relate to some of the following:

​

You've eaten and after your clothes felt tight because you were so bloated

You have difficulty concentrating and experience low moods

After dinner you get super tired and need a nap because of "food coma"

You have such stomach pains that you have to just lay down trying to find
a comfortable position

You find it hard to have enough energy to manage the day-to-day life

Going to the toilet is a struggle - and varies from constipation to diarrhea

When you're stressed, your stomach symptoms worsen - and when you have stomach pain you experience low mood

Well, I can also relate to those symptoms.

After years of working as a chef in hectic restaurant environments, my poor diet, stress, late-night eating, and lack of routine had affected my health. I experienced weight gain, my skin was in bad shape, and I had mood imbalances alongside being bloated and having constant stomach issues. While I loved being a chef, sacrificing my health wasn't worth it.

 

Because of my own struggles, I started exploring the possibilities to study nutrition. I wanted to learn about the connection between our mind and body, how our lifestyle, dietary choices, and mindset can influence our health and well-being. I wanted to expand my knowledge of food I had as a chef where it was used purely as an enjoyment, and learn to use it also as "medicine". In other words, I wanted to know how I could help myself and people around me to feel better.

​

After extensive research, I enrolled in the Natural Nutrition program offered by the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition. And in 2022, I proudly graduated as a Holistic Nutritionist! However, I wanted to dig even deeper in the world of gut health, gut microbiome and how our gut and brain communicate. I did a gut-brain diploma course to be able understand more of the communication between gut and brain, and to better support their precious co-operation.

 

Now, my goal is to share this valuable information and assist you in understanding the impact you can have on your well-being by making changes in your diet and lifestyle. By focusing on supporting your gut health, I can help you alleviate issues such as bloating, mood imbalances, low energy, constipation/diarrhea and abdominal discomfort.
