Sound familiar?

You’ve tried to figure it out. The advice keeps changing.

One video says cut carbs. The next says eat more fruit. Someone swears by a supplement. Meanwhile you still feel bloated after meals, tired in the afternoon, or unsure why your digestion feels off.

  • Bloating, discomfort, or irregular digestion that nobody has explained to you
  • So much conflicting advice that you no longer know what to trust
  • Diets that worked for a while, then stopped working
  • Food that feels stressful instead of simple

None of this means you’ve failed. Your body isn’t broken. It’s giving you information. You just haven’t had the full picture yet.

The first consultation

One hour, all about you.

Think of it as a detective-style conversation. For one hour, my job is to understand you: what you eat, how you live, what you’ve already tried, and what matters most to you. That way the guidance you leave with is built for your life, not copied from someone else’s.

  1. Before

    A short intake form

    You fill it out at least one day before we meet, so I come prepared and we can use our time well.

  2. During

    A 60-minute interview

    We talk through your eating, routine, sleep, stress, history, and priorities. I ask a lot of questions, and you can ask me anything.

  3. Your plan

    Guidance made for you

    You leave with clear, practical next steps that fit your life, and you understand why they make sense.

  4. After

    Follow-up messages

    I follow up by message after the session to see how things are going and to answer questions as you put things into practice.

You’re not buying a generic meal plan. You get preparation before we meet, an hour of focused attention, and support after we’re done.

My approach

Clear, calm, and based on evidence.

  1. Health first, aesthetics follow

    We focus on how you feel and function: digestion, energy, sleep, and everyday life. Aesthetics are a consequence of health, not the goal.

  2. Understanding creates freedom

    When you know why your body responds the way it does, you stop depending on rules and can make your own informed choices.

  3. Consistency beats perfection

    Small habits you can keep matter more than a perfect plan you drop after two weeks.

  4. Nutrition should simplify your life

    If advice makes your life more complicated, stressful, or expensive without a clear reason, it isn’t the right advice for you.

Hi, I’m Diego.

I’m a functional nutrition counselor. I help people understand how their bodies work so they can make informed decisions about food, without fear, guilt, or unnecessary complexity.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Is this medical advice or a diagnosis?

No. This is educational nutrition counseling. This is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment and does not replace care from a licensed physician. I help you understand how your body works and how nutrition and lifestyle fit in, so you can make informed decisions together with your doctor.

What happens in the first session?

It’s a 60-minute conversation where I learn as much as I can about you: your eating, routine, sleep, stress, history, and what you want to improve. I’ve already read your intake form, so we can go deeper. You leave with clear, practical next steps, and I follow up by message afterward.

What do I need to prepare?

Just the short intake form, sent back at least one day before the session. It also helps to have a list of any medications and supplements you take, and to think about what you’d most like to change.

What if I have a medical condition or take medication?

You’re welcome to book. Please tell me about any diagnosis and every medication or supplement in your intake form. My work goes alongside your doctor’s care, never in place of it. I won’t ask you to stop or change any medication. Those decisions belong to you and your physician.

How do online sessions work?

We meet by video call. You get the link after booking. You can join from a phone, tablet, or computer. Choose a quiet place with a stable connection. Sessions are available in English or Spanish.

What’s the reschedule policy?

If you can’t attend, you get one free reschedule. Let me know as early as you can. If I have to cancel, you get a free reschedule too.

How does the 6-consultation package work?

The package includes one 60-minute first consultation and five 30-minute follow-up consultations. Use all six within 6 months of purchase, at whatever pace suits you, for example once a month, subject to availability. Booked separately they would cost $550. The package is $449.

How do I pay?

You pay securely online when you book, in US dollars. Payments are processed by Stripe. This website never sees or stores your card details.
