What is functional nutrition and why should I care?

Functional nutrition is an evolution of the principles found within holistic medicine with the goal of restoring optimal function to your body via medical treatments, quality foods, and a balanced lifestyle. This patient-focused approach targets the root cause of your symptoms.
Inflamed Intestine
Leaky Gut and IBS can contribute to the development of autoimmune diseases and other life-halting conditions like chronic fatigue.
Toxin Overload
Toxins love to accumulate in the intestinal walls to wreak havoc on your immune system, your vital organs, and your mood.
No Guidance
Most “gurus” give you a cookie-cutter diet program without ever performing a blood analysis. And they are never available to answer doubts when it’s not working.
Did you know?
Despite the large number of organic and healthy foods purchased online and in supermarkets every week, only 1 in 8 Americans are considered metabolically healthy. This is due to many underlying issues such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension.

How does our clinic differ from other nutrition programs?

Your personalized nutrition protocol will include recommended meal plans, recipes, shopping lists, dosage charts, daily schedule, exercise, sleep hygiene, mindfulness, and socializing activities.
Sample of the lab tests we conduct to design functional nutrition protocols

Most nutrition programs place everyone in a template believing you will have the same general dietary needs as a specific test group but they never confirm this with lab tests.

Maybe that’s why they aren’t as effective?

In contrast, our experts can perform a wide-spectrum blood test and other analyses with labs in the United States where we test against 65+ hormonal, toxin, and metabolic markers that impact your health.

With our Medical Body Composition Analysis and the Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis, we are able to isolate the optimal formula your body needs to be functional taking into account:

  1. Your environment
  2. Your genetics
  3. Your lifestyle

Can you see the difference between our nutrition protocols and others on social media?

How do your holistic nutrition protocols work?

Browse the FAQs about our functional nutrition plans
  • What is a nutrition protocol?
    A nutrition protocol is a detailed diet plan that states what, how, and when a person will eat and drink. It may be used to test how a specific diet affects a health outcome, such as lower cholesterol. The diet plan includes recommended nutraceuticals that have scientific evidence of also helping support the body’s return to balance. The plan may also include lifestyle and activity changes that are known to benefit the specific condition.
  • What is a personalized nutrition protocol?

    After more than 35 years working with patients from all over the world, we have determined what is most useful is to create a plan that includes diet, lifestyle, and smart supplementation that is uniquely designed for you. Using functional nutrition science, we develop a personalized functional medicine protocol to help you optimize your health.

    Your personalized nutrition protocol will address all of your main nutrition issues that may be undermining your health with a specific plan that you commit to with the help of the clinical nutritionist.

    This is a premium service that requires an initial free consultation with the clinical nutritionist to determine if our programs are suitable for you and your health goals.

  • Why do you give free protocol and product support?
    Other nutritionists put together packages with products, consulting time, and other fees. At our alternative medicine center in Mexico, we feel it’s our duty to ensure you know how to benefit from our advice and how to use the health products you are buying. So for routine questions, we are available to help. We only charge a fee when more personalized consulting and treatment planning is needed. The lifetime support is provided only through a secure online chat during office hours. Clients who pay for premium services get one-on-one video consultations as agreed at the onset of your program.
  • I live in the USA/Canada. Can you meet clients virtually?
    Yes! Our clinical nutritionist can meet with you via a virtual practice using user-friendly cutting-edge and secure technology to give you the support you need.
