Integrative and Functional Nutrition

acorn squash is high in healthy and bioavilable nutreints

Integrative and Functional Nutrition is the most effective way to harness the energy, information, and connections to create health and reverse disease. We work with clients to understand what's causing their symptoms—not just the whole body, but also the mind and spirit.

Integrative and Functional Nutrition recognizes that individuals are genetically and biologically distinct, and that healthful eating must be personalized to YOUR genetics, lifestyle, environment, and health concerns. Food is actually information, not just energy (calories). Nutrition affects cellular metabolism and gene expression. Even more, food represents connection – families, and friends preparing and eating food together.

We're Striving to Change the Medical Model in Healthcare and Wellness.

Instead of applying a generic diet to an ailment or disease, Integrative and Functional Nutrition looks at underlying causes: inflammatory imbalances, detoxification imbalances, hormonal imbalances, mitochondrial dysfunction, immune imbalances, toxic emotions and mood disorders, digestive, absorptive, and microbiological imbalances that create disease – arthritis, cancer, diabetes, fibromyalgia, autoimmune disease, gastrointestinal disorders, obesity, and cardiac disease.

What does integrative nutrition help with?

  • Underweight, overweight, obesity, food addiction
  • Prediabetes, Type 1 & 2 Diabetes
  • Celiac gluten sensitivity and food intolerances
  • Digestive and microbiome wellness
  • Irritable bowels, small intestine bacterial overgrowth, GERD (acid reflux), diarrhea and constipation
  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis)
  • Chronic Fatigue, depression, anxiety, brain fog, PMS
  • Autoimmunity (Hashimoto's Thyroiditis and MS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus)
  • Hypertension and lipid disorders
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome, generalized fatigue, adrenal fatigue, micro-and macrocytic anemia
  • Pregnancy, lactation, infant and child nutrition
  • Nutrition supplements
  • Tube feed consults & blenderized tube feeds
  • Health cooking/meal planning
  • Sleep Hygiene, stress reduction, sports nutrition
  • Joint pain, osteoarthritis, osteopenia, osteoporosis
  • Acne, psoriasis, eczema, hives, and other skin conditions
  • Parkinson's dementia, neuropathy, multiple sclerosis

What can I expect from an Integrative and Functional Nutrition Consultation?

A Comprehensive Integrative and Functional Nutrition Consultation includes assessment and recommendations regarding:

  • Dietary intake including macronutrients, micronutrients, and phytochemicals, fluid, meal pattern, and timing, eating style, and environment
  • Review of systems including signs of nutrient deficiency, digestion, mood, physical symptoms, and anthropometrics
  • Labs – conventional and functional
  • Toxic exposure from food, environment, and internally
  • Lifestyle factors including sleep, exercise, relationships, and stress
  • Attitudes, beliefs, knowledge, values regarding food and nutrition
  • Use of nutritional supplements and food/medication interactions
  • Personalized recommendations that integrate specialized diets, lifestyle interventions, mind-body practices, and if necessary, functional labs and use of nutritional supplements.

The best way to maximize health and get results is to address diet and nutrition and all its contributing factors. Talk to our staff at Santa Cruz Core to set up a series of consultations with our Integrative and Functional practitioners today.

CORE Nutrition Tech

We value personal attention above all and know every plan is different. We are there for you every day on your journey in person or via text, phone call, or e-mail. We will join you on your journey!

InBody: Body Composition Analysis Device

Santa Cruz's Only Public, Medical-Grade body composition analysis machine. InBody measures your body composition, generally known as your body muscle, fat, and water. Our InBody 770 analysis measures:

  • Skeletal Muscle Mass
  • Percent Body Fat
  • Body Fat Mass
  • Basal Metabolic Rate
  • Visceral Fat Level and more!

Instead of focusing on a single number on your scale, body composition analysis allows you to focus on losing body fat and gaining muscle while retaining the proper amount of body water in specific areas of your body. Body composition analysis is the key to tracking and maintaining effective weight loss.

Meet your Basal Metabolic Rate

A Metabolic Fingerprint, or resting metabolism, is the unique number of calories an individual burns each day without exercise or activity. An accurate Metabolic Fingerprint measurement provides the definitive answer when creating a personal program. This means that whether you are working to lose weight, build strength, or complete a first fitness event, the plan you prepare will be based on your needs and deliver the results you are looking for. The BodyGem device is a handheld, portable and profitable tool that gives you an accurate Metabolic Fingerprint measurement result in 10 minutes or less.
