What Is Functional Nutrition Counseling at Nava Health?
Functional Nutrition Counseling is a dynamic, holistic approach to diet that looks far beyond calorie counting. While standard nutrition often focuses on maintaining weight, functional nutrition focuses on optimizing function.
Our functional nutritionists act as “health detectives.” They examine the interactions between your genetics, environment, lifestyle, and diet to identify the root cause of your health concerns. Whether you are battling autoimmune issues, digestive distress, or stubborn weight gain, we use targeted nutritional strategies to restore balance, heal the gut, and correct nutrient deficiencies at the cellular level.
How It Works
We move beyond the "eat this, not that" model to build a sustainable lifestyle partnership.

How Personalized Nutrition Counseling Works
Our process is designed to uncover the “why” behind your symptoms and create a roadmap for the “how.”
- The Intake Process: Before we talk about food, we talk about you. We conduct a deep-dive review of your medical history, current medications, lifestyle habits, and emotional health.
- Advanced Assessments: We review your lab work and functional test results to identify markers of inflammation, insulin resistance, or gut dysbiosis that a standard physical might miss.
- Goal Setting: We set realistic, measurable goals that align with your medical needs and personal desires.
- Tailored Meal Planning: We develop a nutrition protocol that fits your life accounting for food sensitivities, time constraints, and taste preferences.
- Monitoring & Adjustments: Bodies change, and so should your plan. Regular follow-ups allow us to track your progress, re-test markers, and tweak your protocol for continuous improvement.
Benefits of Professional Nutrition Counseling
When you feed your body what it actually needs, the results are transformative.
- Sustainable Weight Management: Lose fat and keep it off by fixing your metabolism, not just restricting calories.

Nutrition Counseling Is More Than a Diet
From Temporary Fix to Medical Intervention
Standard diets are often temporary fixes based on rigid deprivation. In contrast, Nava Health provides a medically supervised, therapeutic intervention. We transform food into a powerful biological signal, changing not just what you eat, but how your entire body functions long-term.
A Holistic, Whole-Person Approach
Applying Functional Medicine principles, we address the whole person, not just the symptoms. We recognize that stress, sleep, and emotional well-being are just as critical as your meals. Our holistic approach ensures your nutrition plan supports your total health, not just weight loss.

Clients Reviews
Frequently Asked Questions
No. While we specialize in treating chronic conditions, you do not need to be “sick” to benefit from functional nutrition. Many of our clients are healthy individuals looking to optimize their performance, improve their energy, or prevent future diseases.
Yes. While both provide dietary advice, functional nutritionists typically take a more holistic, root-cause approach. We focus heavily on how food interacts with your specific biochemistry and often utilize advanced functional lab testing (like stool or urine analysis) to guide our recommendations, which is not standard in conventional dietetics.
We believe in bio-individuality. While we may recommend eliminating inflammatory foods (like gluten or dairy) for a period of time to let your body heal, our goal is not restriction, it is food freedom. We work with you to create a flexible, enjoyable way of eating that you can sustain for life.
Yes. We offer comprehensive testing to identify food sensitivities and allergies that may be causing inflammation or digestive distress. This takes the guesswork out of your diet and helps us customize your plan with precision.
Absolutely. Your hormones are made from the fats and proteins you eat, and they are metabolized by your gut and liver. By optimizing your diet to support these organs and provide the right building blocks, nutrition is often the first line of defense in treating hormonal imbalances like PCOS or low thyroid.
