I’m Luciana Godoi, MS, RD, LDN, a Registered and Licensed Dietitian and Functional Nutritionist with over 21 years of experience in clinical nutrition and functional medicine. I provide nutrition support for digestive concerns, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), as well as cardiometabolic health, PCOS, immune-related nutrition concerns, and other complex health needs.
My approach starts with understanding your health history, digestion, eating patterns, relevant laboratory findings, medications, and daily routines. Your food preferences, culture, schedule, and goals help shape practical recommendations that fit your life.
With advanced training through the Institute for Functional Medicine and Next Level Functional Nutrition, I combine evidence-based medical nutrition therapy with functional nutrition principles. Through The Gut-Brain-Heart Connection™, my whole-person framework, I consider gut and microbiome health, emotional well-being, sleep, stress, movement, and social support as part of the broader nutrition picture.
Sessions are collaborative and practical. Together, we identify nutrition strategies and clear next steps, which may include adjusting meals to your preferences and tolerance, supporting nutrient needs, improving hydration, or building a more consistent eating routine. I explain the reasoning behind recommendations, make room for your questions, and adjust our approach as we review your progress.
Nutrition counseling complements your medical care and does not replace medical diagnosis or treatment. When appropriate, I collaborate with your healthcare providers to support coordinated care.
I use a structured, personalized approach that blends evidence-based medical nutrition therapy with functional nutrition principles. Together, we review your health history, symptoms, labs when appropriate, food patterns, and lifestyle habits to understand the bigger picture. Sessions are practical, collaborative, and focused on clear next steps to support digestion, metabolism, hormones, and sustainable progress.
