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.
