Functional nutrition for women 40+ who are done guessing.

Lab-informed support for gut and hormone symptoms that keep getting called “normal.”


 

Hi, I'm Jen.

Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Master Restorative Health Practitioner, and founder of Nurture & Flow Nutrition.

I work with women in midlife whose digestion, energy, and hormones stopped making sense, especially when the labs come back normal.

What I see so often is that seemingly unrelated symptoms start to make more sense when we look at the root causes. How you’re digesting your food. Whether you’re adequately nourished. How stress and sleep are affecting your day.

I bring your lab results, health history, and everyday symptoms into the same conversation. Together, we figure out what deserves attention first and what’s realistic for you. You’ll understand the plan and have my support as you put it into practice.

More about Jen.


You’ve put a lot into feeling better.

Maybe some of this sounds familiar:

You’re choosing foods carefully and still going to bed bloated, wondering what bothered you this time.

By the afternoon, getting through the daily essentials takes everything you have. The things you wanted to do for yourself get pushed to tomorrow.

Your sleep, moods, or weight have changed, and the habits you used to rely on aren’t helping the way they once did.

Diets and supplements have seemed promising, only to leave you searching for the next thing a few months later.

Your labs look “normal,” but you know how much effort it takes to get through a day feeling this way.

You’ve already put in plenty of effort. Let’s give that effort some direction.


Feeling like yourself again.

You’ve done the research. You’ve made the changes. You’re ready for that effort to lead somewhere.

That starts with understanding what your body needs and putting the pieces in the right order. Sometimes that means strengthening the basics before taking on deeper gut work. Sometimes it means adjusting an approach you’ve been working hard to follow. The next step should make sense for you.

Together, we’ll talk through what’s working, what’s difficult, and what needs to change. You’ll understand the reasons behind your recommendations and build confidence knowing how to support yourself.

Because feeling like yourself again means more than better digestion or steadier energy. It means having the capacity to pursue your goals, enjoy your people, and say yes to the things you’ve been putting off for so long.

Let’s get you moving toward that.


 

Areas of Focus

 
 

Digestion & Gut Health

Bloating, gas, constipation, urgency and reflux aren't random. They're signals. Not your new normal.

A GI-MAP stool analysis measures what's happening in your gut: bacterial balance, digestive function, and inflammation markers. We read those results alongside your symptom patterns and build from there.

So you're working from data instead of guesses.

stress & Hormone Balance

Painful or heavy periods, PMS, mood swings, migraines, stubborn weight, cravings. These tend to travel together.

A DUTCH panel maps your hormone levels and how your body is clearing them, which in midlife often matters as much as the levels themselves.

From there, targeted nutrition and lifestyle support to help your body find steadier ground.

Customized Nutrition

There's no one-size-fits-all way to eat. Your needs shift with your body, your stress, and your stage of life.

MRT food sensitivity testing measures your inflammatory response to foods, additives, and chemicals. When we take something out, it's because your results pointed there, not because it's the food everyone's cutting this year.

You'll learn to eat in a way that supports steady energy, calmer digestion, and hormone balance, so you can feel like you again.

 

 

How to Get Started

 
 

Step 1

Complimentary consult

 

A conversation about your symptoms, where you feel stuck, and what you've already tried. You'll leave knowing what I'd want to look at first and whether working together makes sense for you.

 

Step 2

Initial intake

 
 

A full review of your health history, food journal, and symptom patterns, plus any labs you already have. You'll leave with a clearer picture of your body than you came in with and actionable first steps.

 

Step 3

Customized program

 

Comprehensive functional lab testing, a personalized nutrition and supplement protocol, and coaching sessions throughout your program. Your plan adapts as your body responds, so progress holds.

 
 

What Others Are Saying

 

Christie L., san diego, ca

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Working with Jennifer has been a wonderful experience!  As a former nurse, I completely understand the limitations of the type of care that is practiced in Western medicine, and that is exactly why I chose to work with Jennifer! As a wellness enthusiast and advocate, I was so excited to know that Jennifer's approach focused on identifying the root causes of the symptoms I was experiencing, rather than taking the band-aid approach of merely focusing on symptom management - she wants to help us rebalance and thrive!”

teala K., valencia, ca

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I started on this journey feeling the worst I’ve ever felt. Having Jennifer’s guidance and support was huge.  I had lots of confusion around food choices before, and gained clarity with how to nourish my body based on what the labs were telling us. I loved approaching my health from root cause place, and gained a deep understanding for how the body is all connected.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“After working with Jennifer, I have a much better understanding of how my body reacts to food, and how everything is connected to the gut. I feel like I had a great reset, and am back on track with healthy habits.”

kendra C., portland, or

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Jennifer has the most gentle, holistic, client-focused, results-yielding approach of any practitioner I have EVER had. Especially in recent times, I am so grateful for the time and attention and genuine care Jennifer devotes to me and my husband (and any friend or family member we refer to her). She is knowledgeable and insightful about which lab tests to request so that we can find the actual CAUSES of our health issues.”
