Elizabeth Gaines is Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN), where she leads curriculum design, live training and mentor development for one of the world’s most respected functional health certification programmes.

For more than a decade, Elizabeth worked in nonprofit trauma recovery, supporting victims of domestic minor sex trafficking. The relentless pace and emotional toll led to burnout and chronic illness. When conventional medicine dismissed her symptoms she turned to FDN, where she discovered how to uncover hidden healing opportunities through functional lab testing and personalised protocols. The approach helped her reclaim her energy, clarity and sense of purpose.
