Background
Hi everyone, my name is Janet Garces. I’m a registered dietitian nutritionist, Integrative , Functional Medicine Nutritionist and a Mindful and Instinctive Eating Practitioner (MIEP). I’m 38 years old and was born and raised in Miami, Florida. I became a dietitian mainly to discover and learn more about my personal health conditions - I was diagnosed with TRAPS (TNF-associated periodic syndrome) at the age of 27, and have been living with this disorder since I was 5 years old. I’ve also been very motivated to help those who share similar disorders and show them that it’s a manageable condition based on lifestyle. My purpose is to find a happy median between functional medicine nutrition and MIEP. My work history includes working at Davita dialysis for over 3 years, West Gables rehabilitation hospital for 1 year, Florida Dept of Health WIC for 5 years, and Nourish present. I was also a Pilates instructor. Currently, I’m enrolled in COT for IFMNT which stands for integrative functional medicine nutrition therapy, which I'm currently on my last year to graduate from the 4 year program . Anything else you would like to know about me, just ask away :)

Approach
"I like to use the functional medicine approach and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I leave no stone unturned. I look at the patient as a whole for example head to toe. We will go way back until the last time you haven't felt well."
