Nicole Freyschlag, MS
Functional Nutritionist
MS | Master’s in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine
Nicole is a functional nutritionist, which means she takes a science-based, patient-centered approach to achieving and maintaining excellent health through nutrition and lifestyle. Functional nutrition is personalized and looks at each individual’s unique story and health needs, offering evidence-based solutions tailored to their specific situation.
Before becoming a functional nutritionist, Nicole was a science teacher and has always been passionate about making complex topics understandable. Her goal is to educate and empower you to make informed decisions about your health by considering all aspects that contribute to your well-being: nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress management, and more.
Nicole’s journey into functional medicine started with her own health struggles. For over 15 years, she suffered from chronic stomach pain, and despite numerous visits to doctors, no one could figure out what was wrong. Frustrated with traditional medicine's inability to offer relief, she turned to functional medicine, which opened her eyes to a new way of looking at wellness and helped bring her healing. This experience sparked her passion for holistic care and inspired her to pursue nutrition and functional medicine. She can’t wait to hear your story and help guide you toward better health!
