Root & Rise Nutrition

Functional Nutrition & Lab Testing

Insight-driven support tailored to your unique body.

At Root & Rise Nutrition, we use a functional approach to help explore the root contributors to symptoms related to digestion, hormonal changes, and overall well-being. Functional lab testing is one of the many tools we use to guide personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies with more clarity and precision.

These tests are never used to diagnose or treat any medical condition—instead, they help inform your wellness plan through a nutrition-focused lens.

What is Functional Nutrition?

Functional nutrition looks at how interconnected systems in your body respond to lifestyle, environment, stress, and food. This approach prioritizes individualized care and seeks to understand how underlying imbalances may influence your symptoms—while working to support resilience, energy, and overall quality of life.
