We live in a world where food is everywhere — quick snacks, fast meals, and endless “healthy” labels promising wellness. But here’s the truth: not all meals truly nourish your body. You may be eating plenty, but are you eating in a way that fuels your health, supports digestion, and boosts your energy?
That’s where a dietary assessment with Functional Medicine Los Angeles comes in.
Why “Eating” Isn’t Always “Eating Healthy”
It’s easy to assume that because you’re full, you’re fueling your body well. But fullness doesn’t equal nourishment. Many common eating patterns may actually leave gaps in your nutrition, leading to fatigue, poor digestion, or even long-term health issues.
Here are some signs that you might be eating, but not eating healthy:
- You feel tired even after a meal
- You experience frequent bloating or indigestion
- You rely heavily on processed or fast foods
- Your meals lack variety (same foods over and over)
- You’re unsure if you’re getting enough vitamins, minerals, or fiber
The Role of a Dietary Assessment
At Functional Medicine Los Angeles, a dietary assessment is like a health check-up for your plate. It looks beyond calories and dives into:
- Missing Nutrients – Are you getting enough protein, fiber, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals?
- Hidden Imbalances – Too much sugar? Not enough hydration?
- Lifestyle Fit – Are your eating habits supporting your energy levels, digestion, and overall well-being?
With this information, you’ll receive personalized food recommendations tailored to your body’s needs, helping you move from “just eating” to “eating for health.”
, boost nutrient absorption, and restore energy naturally.
