Functional Nutrition
Functional nutrition is a holistic approach to health that focuses on how food and lifestyle choices influence the body at a cellular level, aiming to optimize overall well-being by addressing the root causes of health issues rather than just treating symptoms.
In functional nutrition, we consider factors such as genetics, environment, lifestyle, and current health conditions to create personalized nutrition and lifestyle plans. This approach emphasizes the importance of whole, nutrient-dense foods, mindful eating habits, and the role of gut health, inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies. By tailoring recommendations to the individual's specific needs, functional nutrition aims to restore balance, support healing, and promote long-term health.

Consultations
01
A functional nutrition consultation is a personalized and in-depth session where I work with you to understand your health concerns and nutritional needs. The goal is to define changes that address the root causes of any health issues you may be experiencing, rather than just managing symptoms. The consultation is designed to empower you with the knowledge and tools you need to make lasting changes that promote wellness.
What to expect in a functional nutrition consultation
I
Comprehensive Health Assessment
I apply a holistic approach where a person is considered as a whole: body, beliefs, emotions. I take into account your health history, lifestyle, diet, stress levels, and emotional well-being to identify underlying issues. I analyze existing tests and may recommend additional ones, like food intolerance, gut health assessments or Oligo/Check, for deeper insights into your overall well-being.
II
Personalized Recommendations
Based on the assessment, I will provide a personalized advice on how to change your diet. I might also recommend specific supplements, lifestyle modifications, and stress management techniques. Together, you and I will set realistic and achievable health goals; you will set the pace for the changes so that they become habits and last for life.
III
Follow-Up and Ongoing Support
Functional nutrition is a dynamic process, and follow-up consultations are there to monitor progress, make further changes, make adjustments, and provide ongoing support. These sessions help to refine your plan based on how your body responds and any changes in your health status.
IV
Education and Empowerment
A significant part of the consultation involves educating you about the role of nutrition in your health. I will provide you with the knowledge and tools you need to make informed decisions about your diet and lifestyle moving forward.
Oligo/Check Micronutrient Report
02
Immediate nutritional assessment: vitamins, minerals, trace elements, heavy metals and oxidative stress.
Micronutrition and other nutritional recommendations become more personalized.
Assessment is available during a Consultation or as a Stand Alone test including interpretation of results.
Note: therapeutical advices can only be given after a Consultation (after a full analysis of client’s situation).
Family Consultations
03
Family members, either all or some, take part in an educational session customized to their specific needs.
We will adapt them to your family needs if there are underlying health issues (for instance, allergies, food intolerances, chronic diseases, etc.), religious or ethical dietary practices.
According to your family objectives, we can choose the areas to concentrate on: improving immune system, encouraging children to eat a varied diet, managing mood swings, etc. I will also give you ideas to make nutritious meals that everyone enjoys, reducing the need for separate cooking.
