For three years, I struggled with severe acid reflux, poorly managed with antacid medications. My symptoms worsened with constant burping, nausea, and the awful sensation of food stuck in my stomach, making it hard to sleep. I even considered traveling to my home country for treatment.
Then I started working with Functional Chef Patricia Shani, who guided me through a personalized protocol with FODMAP-friendly meals, healing foods, supplements, herbal teas, and mindful eating. Within a week, the burping stopped, and my digestion improved. By the second week, I was completely free of reflux and nausea, feeling happy and at peace with my body.
Next, we focused on weight loss with a 21-day elimination diet supported by supplements, teas, and relaxation techniques.
Through this journey, I not only saw amazing improvements in my health but also learned to be more conscious of my body’s needs and to make better choices.
My name is Kátia, and since May 2024, I’ve been receiving support and guidance from the Functional Chef Patrícia on my journey to transformation.
I’m 31 years old and have faced two cancer diagnoses, in 2017 and 2020. Thankfully, I’ve been in remission for four years. However, in May 2024, I was diagnosed with depression and generalized anxiety disorder. When I reached out to Patrícia, I must admit that I had lost all hope of improvement. My life felt stuck in every possible way.
We started a personalized protocol, implementing gradual changes in my habits at a pace that worked for me. At that time, my diet was poor—I didn’t eat fruits, vegetables, or greens at all. I struggled with severe insomnia, and my sleep quality was terrible. But what I considered the most serious symptom was that I had completely stopped making plans for the future.
Now, seven months into weekly sessions with Patrícia, my life has transformed significantly. My diet has improved immensely: I’ve added vegetables, proteins, fruits, and even natural juices, which I never used to drink.
My sleep has improved dramatically, which has positively impacted my daily energy and productivity. I also achieved a long-awaited goal—moving to a new home—and now have clear plans for 2025, something I couldn’t even imagine before.
In addition to the dietary changes, we introduced specific supplements such as magnesium, vitamin B12, vitamin D, and others.
However, what truly made the difference was the ongoing support and guidance from Patrícia. Her encouragement and personalized advice helped me see the light at the end of the tunnel. We are still working together, and there’s more to accomplish, but today I can confidently say:
For a while, I had been facing challenges with my health. I have arrhythmia, a nodule, and a cyst in my thyroid, but I do not take controlled medications. Recently, I developed knee pain, and a cyst was identified in the area. After taking an anti-inflammatory, the pain decreased, but other health issues persisted.
Despite maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding sugar during the week, I have always struggled to lose weight. I consulted a nutritionist and underwent tests, but I was told that my metabolism is slow, making the process even more challenging. I often feel like I make a lot of sacrifices for very little results.
Currently, I am 59 years old, weighed 74 kg, and my goal was to reach 68 kg. My abdominal circumference was 92 cm, my testosterone levels were high, my lean mass was very low, and my body fat percentage was elevated. Additionally, I had difficulty sleeping (waking up multiple times during the night) and often experienced pain. Even with exercises like functional training, weightlifting, and walking, the results didn’t appear.
That’s when I decided to seek guidance from Functional Chef Patricia Shani and follow the protocol she recommended.
The Applied Protocol
The protocol consisted of functional and targeted nutrition, teas, supplementation, and mindful eating practices.
Results:
In less than 2 months, the results were surprising, even with the obstacles I faced. I lost 3 kg, reduced my abdominal circumference from 92 cm to 88 cm, and significantly reduced bloating. My clothes feel looser, my knee pain has improved greatly, and I am sleeping better.
Today, I feel happier and healthier, with renewed energy to further enhance my health care. I plan to follow the protocol created by Functional Chef Patricia Shani even more rigorously, as it has already transformed my life.
I am so grateful for this journey!

No. While nutrition is a core component, the protocol also includes supplementation, lifestyle modifications, and holistic techniques to restore balance to both the body and mind.

With a functional medicine approach, it combines nutrition, supplements, and holistic techniques to restore balance across your body’s systems. The protocol is fully personalized, ensuring solutions that fit your unique needs and goals.
Results vary depending on individual health conditions and commitment to the plan. Many clients experience noticeable improvements within 4 to 6 weeks, but full transformation can take several months as we focus on sustainable, long-term changes.
Lab tests are recommended to provide a clear picture of your health, including nutrient levels, hormone balance, and metabolic markers. They are not mandatory but highly encouraged for the most accurate and effective results.

• Digestive issues like GERD, reflux, and bloating.
• Hormonal imbalances, including insulin resistance and weight gain.
