Functional Nutrition
learning to eat in a nutrient dense way to support health and wellbeing
Your functional nutrition coach will sit down with you to discuss your goals, and develop a plan. Nutrition coaching can provide you with insights as to how food affects your health, as well as provide meal plans and recipes to help you reach your goals. Your coach can also create food plans based on recommendations from your medical provider. We offer nutrition in conjunction with functional medicine, as well as on its own.

Functional Medicine Guided Nutrition
with nutrient analysis and optimization
Functional Medicine Nutritional Assessments are for those that are looking for nutritional assessment, and recommendations based on bloodwork and physical findings. Start with a nutritional based physical exam with one of our nurse practitioners, bloodwork, and evaluation. This is followed by dietary and supplement recommendations, and a meeting with our nutritionist. This is ideal for athletes, people looking for nutrition advice, and people in generally good health that are looking to optimize. It might be a good fit for anyone with an established diagnosis who would like to receive dietary and supplement recommendations.

Comprehensive Functional Medicine Membership
with gut testing and a deep dive into your health
This is a comprehensive multiphase approach to uncovering wellness, and health optimization.
The Process
We start with a Get Started appointment with our Registered Nurse, to do a brief overview and get the ball rolling. You then met with our Registered Nurse for an in-depth intake which includes tapping into your big Why. This is followed by an in person physical exam with one of our Nurse Practitioners. You will receive kits for stool testing, breath testing, orders for blood work, and possibly other tests such as saliva or urine testing depending on your exam, symptoms, and results. We then formulate a multiphase plan, and then re-test to ensure success of treatment. This process is guided by nurse check-ins and health coaching along the way. You meet with your nurse practitioner regularly to go over results and make adjustments depending on your response to treatment. We integrate nutrition recommendations as a main pillar of wellness and offer nutritionist consultations to compliment our functional membership.

”When you work with a coach, it is really important how much she is able to allow you to align heart and mind. Beyond Functional Medicine competence, Keryn has this gift which helps you ground, be yourself and stay efficient on your goal.”
“Keryn provides a wealth of knowledge regarding healthy eating and how to live a healthy life in general. It was extremely helpful having someone unbiased to talk to who had only my health goals in mind. She’s a great listener; she easily linked my story to the root cause of my symptoms. I would like to thank Keryn for the wisdom and insights she shared with me. I highly recommend working with her !”
“I worked with Keryn as I prepared to start the IFM elimination diet. She is such an empathetic and heart-centered coach. With Keryn’s help, I was able to dig deeper and understand the fears I had going into the diet. She helped me reframe my vision and motivation for the challenge. Her guidance helped me work through the challenges with a positive mindset, focused on long-term health.”
At Holistic RI we work to create gradual, sustainable changes. This takes time and effort. We acknowledge this, and want to empower you to help you form new healthy habits.

Nutrition
Your functional medicine provider makes recommendations, and your functional nutrition coach helps you figure out how to make those recommendations a reality. Discuss nutrient dense foods, recipes, and meals plans as needed.
During sessions your nutrition coach will ask you about priorities, and make customized recommendations to meet you where you are at in your nutrition journey.
Nutritional Coaching involves forming a partnership, and non-judgement. Nutritional coaching can be provided as a membership to support you through your journey and relationship with food.
