Fun Fact

Dr. Annie only takes TWO supplements consistently! And she strives to keep patients’ supplement load as minimal as possible because she knows what it’s like to want to give up on your health plan when things feel too overwhelming.

About Dr. Annie

As a young adult, Dr. Annie found herself struggling with fatigue, weight gain, migraines, acne, and low self-esteem.

As she went through university in the sciences, she started to learn about the importance of healthy eating and exercise for immediate and long-term physical and mental health. Though she had seen Naturopathic doctors her whole life, she finally started really listening and was motivated to make a change. She turned her life around with the knowledge she had gained and decided she wanted to share it with others by becoming an ND herself.

When Dr. Annie is not in work mode, she can usually be found hanging out with her husband and two young kids, playing with their energetic dog Kona, cooking, listening to audiobooks, netflixing, and enjoying some nature time.

Dr. Annie can relate to busy moms trying to make it through one day at a time, feeding kids, and keeping the house clean. That’s why she often recommends testing to understand the specific areas of your health that need support, and stop trying to do everything at once.

Specialties/Special Focus

Dr. Annie has a particular interest in blood sugar regulation and metabolic concerns such as difficulty losing weight, insulin resistance, PCOS, and Type 2 Diabetes. She also loves to include genetic analysis as part of her patients’ treatment plans whenever possible to better individualize treatment.

Additional Services:

Vitamin injection therapy: Vitamin injections are often recommended to support nutrient status, particularly for B vitamins. Vitamin injections provide 100% absorption of nutrients as they bypass the digestive tract and liver processing.

Dr. Annie Website Genetic Analysis

Crack Your Code with Naturopathic Doctor Annie Cannon’s Genetic Analysis Program. Finally understand how you should be eating, exercising, and what supplements you should be taking according to your individual genetic makeup. Ever wonder why some people thrive on certain diets or exercise plans but they just don’t seem to work for you?  It might be your genes!

While high protein might be optimal for some, for others it may be inflammatory, spike insulin, and decrease longevity. While a high fat, low carb diet might make some people feel on top of the world, for others it can put them at risk for high cholesterol and heart disease. Exercise: is lifting heavy, doing more cardio, or a mix of both going to be ideal for you? Is coffee helpful or harmful to your detoxification processes?

How It Works

  • Step 1: Get your genetic test done through either DNA Allure or 23andMe and send us your raw data.
  • Step 2: Your Naturopathic Doctor will run your data through the GeneRx platform, then create your tailored diet, exercise and supplement plan.
  • Step 3: Meet with your ND to review your report and treatment plan.

What You Get

  • Review of health history and Genetic Consultation with a Naturopathic Doctor (75 minutes)
  • Personal GeneRx Report (details of what’s included below)
  • Supplement guidance
  • Exercise recommendations
  • Genetic diet requirements and guidelines

Why is the GeneRx report better than other genetic analysis reports?

GeneRx considers all of your genes together instead of analyzing each individual gene. Individual gene analysis can give contradicting information and be very confusing since one gene may suggest you are at high risk for a certain disease, but when all the involved genes are analyzed together, the risk may actually be much lower.

Your genes are forever so this test only needs to be done one time in your life!

Let’s Get Started

The GeneRx report serves as a comprehensive guide to your health, providing a blueprint that you can revisit as needed. Let’s create a personalized health plan tailored to your unique genetic profile, covering the best diet, supplements, exercise routines, and stress management strategies
