Functional Nutrition
Personalized Fuel for Healing, Energy & Long-Term Health
At Alessi Functional Health, we believe food isn’t just fuel — it’s information. Every bite you eat sends a signal to your body. That’s why we don’t give you generic meal plans or fad diets.
Our Functional Nutrition programs are clinically designed and doctor-supervised to reverse disease, balance the body, and help you reach your long-term health goals — using food as a primary healing tool.
What Is Functional Nutrition?
Functional Nutrition is about precision nutrition — not calorie counting.
It’s a personalized, therapeutic approach to food that looks at the root causes of symptoms and uses nutrition to restore function across all systems: gut, hormones, metabolism, immune, and brain.
We analyze your labs, symptoms, and lifestyle to prescribe a nutritional strategy tailored to you — whether your goal is to reverse a chronic condition, eliminate inflammation, lose weight, balance hormones, or heal your gut.
What We Use in Our Protocols:
1. Fasting & Time-Restricted Eating
Strategic fasting windows (12–16 hours) to optimize blood sugar, reduce inflammation, improve mitochondrial function, and boost cellular repair (autophagy).
2. Functional Foods & Nutrient-Dense Meals
We teach you how to use real, healing foods to fuel your body — with emphasis on gut-soothing, hormone-supportive, and anti-inflammatory ingredients.
3. Doctor-Prescribed Eating Patterns (NOT Diets)
We utilize medically tailored nutrition plans based on your individual needs and diagnoses, including:
- Anti-inflammatory diet
- Low FODMAP
- Elimination diet
- Autoimmune Paleo (AIP)
- Ketogenic or metabolic reset
- Gut-healing protocols (leaky gut, SIBO, candida)
4. Specific Condition-Focused Food Protocols
We design plans that support specific issues such as:
- PCOS and hormone imbalance
- Thyroid dysfunction
- Diabetes and insulin resistance
- Leaky gut and IBS
- Autoimmune disease
- Cognitive decline and inflammation
- Weight loss resistance and metabolic damage
5. Goal-Oriented Guides & Coaching
You won’t be guessing. We give you:
- Customized food guides
- Shopping lists
- Meal timing plans
- Supplement and hydration protocols
- Weekly or monthly check-ins (in person or virtual)
It’s Not a Diet. It’s a Strategy.
This is food as medicine — done right.
No guessing. No trendy gimmicks. Just a strategic plan to help your body do what it’s designed to do: heal, restore, and thrive.
