FUNCTIONAL NUTRITION

RESTORE YOUR HEALTH - RECLAIM YOUR LIFE

We are passionate about restoring health through evidence-based functional nutrition

  • Have you suspected that you have nutrition deficiencies or a hormone imbalance that may be behind your current health condition?

  • Maybe you have a feeling that there is a connection between your digestive system, recent hormonal shifts and your emotional state, but you are unsure of where to start…

  • Are you taking multiple supplements and making lifestyle changes to self-treat a health condition or optimize longevity….but are questioning if you are on the right track?

  • If you have tried seemingly everything, but are not satisfied with your results, a functional nutrition approach may be for you.

What is a functional nutrition approach?

Functional Nutrition is a form of specialized holistic health care that takes a data-driven approach to identify, address or prevent the root causes of disease. Its goal is to restore your health to optimum function through personalized nutrition, supplement and lifestyle recommendations based on your unique biomarkers and lab data. It’s philosophy, test, don’t guess is often more effective than one size fits all recommendations found online or in traditional models of modern healthcare. <<Deeper Dive>> (link to What is Functional Nutrition article)

We specialize in personalized functional nutrition programs for clients with complex health conditions or goals to optimize performance and longevity.

We offer new ways to consider the resolution of your chronic illness, from IBS to inflammation, diabetes to depression, autoimmune disease to ADHD, PMS to PCOS, migraines to menopause.

We fully partner with our clients and their healthcare teams, and advocate for treatment coordination that is rare in our current medical system. Our office has decades of experience, and a warmth that makes all the difference as we navigate the journey alongside you.

Our Functional Dietitian, Nicole Fox, MPH, RD specializes in deeply understanding complex conditions, using a systems biology approach and diagnostic testing to uncover the root cause of your symptoms. She then uses this data along with your symptoms to create a Restore Your Health personalized treatment program for you, and support you all the way until goals are reached.

TESTIMONIALS

Working with Nicole has been an informative pleasure. I am a fit and active 70 year-old who needed some tweaks for a rise in my LDL cholesterol levels since 2020. I sought out a nutritionist in order to see what I could do to avoid taking statins. I currently enjoy not being on any medications, so I didn’t want to start. Her guidance and expertise in using my lab results to recommend appropriate supplements took my LDL from 133 to 109 in less than three months. I am still a work in progress, but I so value being put on the right path from my work with Nicole.

I have enjoyed this life improving and positive experience with Nicole. She has been considerate and understanding of my health issues and goals, teaching me how to eat a balanced diet that helped me resolve my health issues, including safely losing weight and dramatically improving my PCOS labs in just a small period of time. I couldn’t be happier this truly improved my way of life as well as my confidence. I couldn’t be more grateful!

Nicole’s nutritional knowledge transformed my lifestyle and my health, after a year-long struggle with multiple GI symptoms that my doctors were having trouble resolving. I learned how to listen to my body’s nutritional needs, cook nourishing food, where to source pure ingredients, how to eat mindfully, and what types of foods are best for my unique body. I looked to her expertise repeatedly and my educational experience has not stopped. Today I believe passionately that every human being needs to understand the nutritional healing properties of food and discover for themselves how functional nutrition can transform their energy, health, and wellbeing and ultimately lead them to a flourishing life.

Nicole Fox, MPH RD has truly been indispensable in treating the patients I refer with chronic headaches, cognitive issues and insomnia with the utmost personalized and meticulous care. She confidently identifies causative factors and then educates and empowers patients to follow her treatment plans. As a result, my patients have not only experienced fewer to no migraines and more energy, but a reduced dependency on pain and psychotropic medications. Nicole’s expertise, professionalism and passion for her work is remarkable.

I consulted with Nicole to create a lifestyle plan to help me have a healthy pregnancy and breastfeed my daughter. It was SO helpful to have her assistance. She was so personable and easy to work with. She was able to coach me on what to eat, and it was totally doable!. Nicole walks her talk and teaches from years of experience in practice. Down to earth with an amazing knack for making healthy nutrition a reality! She is AMAZING.
