Nutritional Counseling

At Surya Medicine, nutritional counseling is rooted in functional medicine and personalized care—because no two bodies, histories, or life stages are the same.

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all diet plans, we focus on understanding how your unique biology, lifestyle, and environment influence your health. Nutrition becomes a therapeutic tool to restore balance, support healing, and optimize long-term well-being.

Our Functional & Personalized Approach

We take the time to look upstream at the root causes of symptoms, not just the symptoms themselves. Your care plan may be informed by:

  • Medical history, medications, and current health concerns

  • Digestive health, metabolism, and nutrient status

  • Hormones, blood sugar regulation, and inflammation

  • Lifestyle factors including stress, sleep, movement, and environment

  • Personal preferences, food allergies/sensitivities, cultural patterns, and real-life sustainability

  • Lab testing

Nutrition recommendations are individualized, practical, and evidence-based, designed to fit into your life—not disrupt it.

What Nutritional Counseling at Surya Medicine Can Support:

  • Metabolic health and healthy weight loss/maintenance

  • Hormonal balance, perimenopause, post-menopause

  • Digestive concerns and gut health optimization

  • Blood sugar regulation and cardiometabolic health

  •  Energy, mood, and cognitive clarity

  • Reducing inflammation, promoting immune resilience and longevity

  • Prevention-focused care and healthy aging

What to Expect

  • In-depth initial visit to understand your full health picture

  • Personalized nutrition strategy tailored to your goals and physiology

  • Clear, actionable guidance

  • Ongoing support and refinement as your body and life evolve

Our goal is to help you build a sustainable relationship with food that supports strength, vitality, and well-being at every stage of life.

Micronutrient Testing

Nearly every process in the body requires vitamins and minerals (otherwise known as micronutrients). There is strong evidence to suggest that micronutrient deficiencies adversely impact health, contributing to compromised immune health and chronic disease, especially if they go untreated.

Micronutrient testing provides a comprehensive nutritional analysis, reflecting the past 4-6 months, measuring functional deficiencies at the cellular level. It assesses levels of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, and antioxidants.
