ElevateD VITALITY EXPERIENCE Functional-First CARE for women
ElevateD VITALITY Functional-First WEIGHT LOSS for women in midlife
Losing Weight After 40 Doesn't Have To Be So Hard. You've Been Through Enough.
Once we fix what's underneath, it isn't. We assess your gut, your hormones, and your metabolic markers, then tailor a protocol built for your specific needs.
Board certified functional medicine nutrition practitioners.
Functional root-cause testing & diagnostics. Personalized plans.
Three doctors told me my labs were normal. Sara ran the panels they never ordered and everything I had been describing for four years was right there on paper.
My A1C had crept up every single year. Six months in, it moved in the other direction for the first time since I started tracking it.
The bloating was the first thing to go. I stopped planning what I wore around how my stomach would look by dinner.
I had not slept through the night in two years. The cortisol results explained exactly why, and the 3am wakeups stopped.
I had spent thousands on supplements I picked off the internet. This was the first time anyone tested before telling me what to take.
My thyroid diagnosis came with a prescription and nothing else. Sara was the first person to look at my gut and my stress alongside it.
I did not just lose the weight. I understand my body now, which is the part that makes me believe it will stay off.
I came in thinking this was about my weight. I left with my energy back, and I did not know that was even on the table.

Weight Gain and Hormonal Change.
Whole-Woman Care for Midlife Weight Gain and Hormonal Change
One-size-fits-all doesn't work for midlife care. Wherever you are in your journey, we’ll meet you there with a science-backed solution tailored to your specific concerns.
THE TRUTH
You've Already Been Told It's Hormones. But, Nobody Told You What Else It Is.
Hormones are part of it. They are almost never all of it. Your gut, your cortisol rhythm, inflammation, and how your body handles blood sugar are all shifting at the same time, and each one pulls on the others.
That is why cutting calories stops working, why the bloating outlasts every elimination diet, and why you can do everything right and still watch the scale hold.
You cannot out-diet a system that is out of balance in four places at once.
WHY THE WEIGHT WONT MOVE
Four Systems Decide Whether Weight Comes Off. Right Now, All Four Are Working Against You.
Fat loss is not one switch. It runs through four systems, and in midlife all four start shifting at the same time.
That is why eating less stops working. You are not losing a fight with your appetite.
Select any symptom to see which system is driving it.
WE DON'T GUESS. WE LOOK.
You Can't Fix What Nobody Has Measured.
A DUTCH panel shows how your body produces and clears hormones at four points across a full day, not one number from one morning blood draw. A GI-MAP shows exactly what is living in your gut, down to the bacteria no standard visit screens for. And comprehensive bloodwork catches the metabolic markers that move years before anyone calls them a diagnosis.
Then there is the part nobody explains. A normal lab result only means you are not sick enough to treat. We read the same numbers against optimal ranges instead, because feeling fine was never the goal.
Once we can see it, we can fix it. That is when your body finally starts responding again.

WHAT THE PROCESS LOOKS LIKE
The Midlife Revival Method
Phase One
Assess & Decode
We start with the full picture. A GI-MAP for your gut, a DUTCH panel for your hormones across a full day, and comprehensive bloodwork read against optimal ranges. Then we sit down and walk every line together until you understand what your body has actually been doing.
Phase Two
Remove & Reset
We take out what your results identified. The foods that are inflammatory for you specifically, not the ones on a generic list. The gut imbalances the GI-MAP found. The habits quietly keeping cortisol elevated. This is usually the phase where the bloating goes.
Phase Three
Rebuild & Restore
Gut lining, nutrient status, and blood sugar stability get repaired with a protocol written from your results. Most women eat more here rather than less, because an under-fueled body in midlife holds on instead of letting go. Strength work starts wherever you are.
Phase Four
Rebalance & Rise
With the foundation repaired, fat loss stops being a fight. No panic, no cutting food groups, no starting over on Monday. Progressive strength work builds the muscle that protects your metabolism and your bones, and we retest to confirm what changed instead of assuming.
Phase Five
Reveal & Embody
Every diet you have done left you at the bottom with no way out. Not this one. We move you out of the deficit on purpose, build the maintenance plan you will actually use, and rehearse the situations that used to undo you. The best outcome here is that you stop needing us.

The Women Behind Elevated Vitality.
Sara FRENZA| Founder
Hey, I'm Sara!
I’m Sara Frenza, Functional Medicine Nutrition Practitioner, Nutrition and Body Transformation Coach, Menopause Coaching Specialist, Gut and Hormone Specialist.
I built this practice because I lived this exact struggle. I know what it feels like to do everything right and have your body not cooperate. I spent years learning what conventional medicine and mainstream fitness never taught me about what actually happens inside a woman’s body during perimenopause and menopause.
Every woman I work with deserves real answers, not more guessing, not more restriction, not another plan designed for someone else’s biology.

ASK ME ANYTHING
Questions Most Woman Ask First.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. We have other flexible payment plan options to make the investment more manageable. We can go over the details on our virtual consult.
Is Elevated Vitality Experience covered by HSA/FSA?
HSA/FSA may be eligible with a Letter of Medical Necessity depending on your plan, so you may be able to use pre-tax health dollars.
How long until I see results?
Most clients notice changes in sleep, energy, and mood within the first few weeks. Weight loss typically starts showing up in Phase 2, once we've addressed the root issues. This isn't a crash diet. It's a process. But it's a process that actually sticks.
What if I've already tried everything and nothing works?
That's exactly who this is for. If you've done the diets, the programs, the calorie counting and you're still stuck, there's usually something going on under the surface that nobody has looked at. That's what the testing shows us. Once we know what's actually happening, we can fix it.
I have a thyroid or autoimmune diagnosis already. Does that change anything?
It usually makes the gut work more important, not less. A diagnosis tells you what to call it. It rarely tells you what else is feeding it, which is where we come in.
How is this different from other nutrition coaching programs?
Most programs give you a meal plan or macros and send you on your way with occasional email or video check-ins. We start with testing so we're not guessing. We look at your hormones, your gut health, your cortisol patterns. Then we build a complete plan around YOUR data. We prioritize the relationship between you and your dedicated coach. You’re not just a number, you have a real person invested in your success.
What if I’ve never done functional testing before?
That’s completely fine! After you enroll, you’ll fill out a detailed intake form with all your symptoms and submit any recent lab work you have. Our functional nutrition team will review everything and determine the best testing protocol for your specific situation.
Do I need a doctor's referral to join?
Nope. The testing we do is ordered through the program, not your doctor. You don't need anyone's permission to get started. That said, I'm not replacing your doctor. If something comes up in your results that needs medical attention, I'll tell you. We work alongside your healthcare team, not instead of them.
What if my doctor said my labs are fine, do I still need testing?
Standard bloodwork captures one moment and gets read against ranges built to catch disease, not to describe how you feel. A DUTCH panel shows how your body processes hormones across a full day. A GI-MAP shows gut markers a standard visit never screens for. Fine and optimal are not the same thing.
What if I’m on a GLP-1 medication?
We absolutely work with women on GLP-1s, especially if you’ve plateaued or suspect you’re malnourished. We can help optimize your nutrition and address underlying issues.
Is this all virtual or do I need to be local?
100% virtual. All of our coaching calls happen over Zoom. The testing kits get shipped directly to your house. We have clients all over the country.
What's the time commitment each week?
Expect about 2-3 hours per week. That includes your workouts, tracking your food, and our coaching calls. It's not nothing, but it's manageable for women with full schedules.
Still have a question I didn't answer?
Just text the word "ELEVATED" to "(226) 799-4745" and ask away... we're standing by to help.
Here's How It Works.
Apply. It takes about five minutes.
If it looks like a fit, we book your virtual consult.
We test, and you get your Root Cause Blueprint.

6 Months From Now, You'll Know... Or You'll Still Be Guessing.
Still Googling at 10pm, or holding real answers and a tailored plan built on your data. That's the whole choice.
P.S. If you read this far, some part of you already knows something is off and wants a real answer. That is the whole reason this exists. Let's go find out what it is.
