Meet Nicole Fennel Functional Dietitian

We specialize in the "In Between" Phase:

The “They told me it’s just part of getting older” phase
When you’ve been patted on the head and told “that’s normal for your age,” but deep down you know feeling this exhausted, puffy, and off isn’t how it’s supposed to be, and you’re finally ready to prove them wrong.

The “I’ve tried piecing it together on my own” phase
You’ve listened to the podcasts, saved the Instagram posts, tried the supplements, maybe even gone gluten-free “just to see”... and now you’re done guessing. You’re ready for a real plan that actually fits your body and your life.

The “I don’t need more information, I need a clear path” phase
You’re not lacking advice; you’re drowning in it. What you want is someone to connect the dots, tell you what actually matters for your hormones and metabolism, and give you step-by-step guidance you can follow without overhauling everything overnight.

The “I just want to feel good in my body again” phase
You don’t want a second full-time job counting macros or living at the gym. You just want your energy back, your mood steadier, your clothes to fit comfortably, and a way to get there that doesn’t burn your life down in the process.

Can you relate?

Feeling "blah" every Day isn't normal.
nutrition is critical for fixing it!

Feeling like a slow-paced sloth or as if your metabolism is throwing a tantrum? You could be dealing wonky thyroid hormones, nutrient deficiencies, or blood sugar issues.
Your daily routine includes feeling (& looking) like you've swallowed a basketball by the end of the day. Or you have issues with things such as bloating, indigestion, constipation, or IBS, then that’s a sign to take a deeper look into your hormone-gut connection!
You might be eating less but gaining more, all while feeling exhausted and bloated. You’re hitting the gym and munching on salads, but your jeans just don’t seem to get the memo? Your body seems to have  a mind (and weight) of its own! Well, my friend, the "calories in, calories out" model just isn't the answer!
Mood swings, period pain, and menstrual chaos aren’t just “part of being a woman.” . This might be a sign of hormone imbalances, nutrient defiencies, wonky blood sugar, and a sluggish metabolism.
Feeling swollen and puffed up like a balloon? Puffiness and inflammation may be your body’s way of telling you something isn’t right under the surface. Mineral imbalances, inflammatory foods, and low intake of anti-inflammatory foods could be the culprit!
Wired but tired is not a badge of honor—trust us! Living with brain fog, headaches, or nonstop fatigue can leave you feeling like a walking zombie (and not the fun kind). Often, nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar imbalances, and energy imbalances are to blame!

"I cannot stress enough how helpful working 1:1 has been for me and my thyroid, hormone, and mental health journey!"

I feel so much better energetically! Before working with her, I had struggled with fatigue so much that going to the grocery store or running day-to-day errands took so much out of me! I’ve also got my brain power back, I’m able to read and comprehend information like I used to, and I am finally able to launch a podcast which has been a goal for so long! After spending so much money elsewhere, I wish I had started HERE! She is kind, loving, patient, and understanding. Her boot camp thyroid course contains all you need to become more informed, empowered and educated about your thyroid and how to better communicate your needs with your healthcare provider. I am so grateful!

"When you are just trying to muster the energy to make it through a day, you don’t realize how much of life you are missing."

Nicole changed that for me. She balanced the results of lab testing with a holistic and sustainable approach to everyday life, took the time to review my labs on a deeper level, and listened to how I was feeling. Her explanations are easy to follow and validating. Objectively, my labs are better than they have been in a long time. Subjectively, I feel stronger than I have in years and consistently find myself doing things that were once part of my life that I had forgotten about because I didn’t have the energy. Nicole has given me my life back, she is a blessing, and I am forever grateful I had the opportunity to work with her.

"If you’re looking to make a permanent change in terms of what you eat or how you’re feeling I highly recommend Nicole."

Choosing the best foods for yourself and your family can be confusing. There is a lot of misinformation about what is healthy and what isn’t. In my case I was already eating what I believed to be a healthy, “clean”diet but was still having problems with acne, infertility, etc. After having “normal” blood tests, my symptoms were ultimately dismissed by my doctor but I was still suffering. Thankfully, I found Nicole. Her holistic approach to food and nutrition falls in line with my own views. She was kind and understanding as we reviewed my medical and nutritional history as well as the symptoms I was having. She recommended several tests to help get to the bottom of what’s really going on and she has a plan in place to fix the root cause using diet and supplementation. Nicole always takes the time to explain test results and the changes that need to be made to see improvement

"I haven’t had any migraines, my energy is back, and my digestive health has done a 180"

Nicole continues to be a tremendous help in my journey to better health. I went to her with several health issues, including Ulcerative Colitis. Nicole made a detailed plan for me to start with on how to change my diet initially to encourage better habits. Once blood tests were done she could pinpoint exactly what to eliminate from my diet, what to include more of, supplements to aid with my digestive health, and a fool proof plan for me to follow. She equipped me with the necessary tools and knowledge to take charge of my health and encouraged me to make it a priority. Teaching me to use food to heal my body has made such a positive difference in my life. I haven’t had any migraines, my energy is back, and my digestive health has done a 180. Can’t say enough good things about Nicole and how much she has helped me!

"I would absolutely recommend working with her for thyroid, hormonal, and/or gut issues"

Nicole is an amazing practitioner with a wealth of knowledge who has truly helped me address and resolve health issues that so many other practitioners (MDs, functional med practitioners, naturopaths, holistic wellness practitioners, etc.) were unable to do. She is incredibly empathetic and validating and finally made me feel like I wasn't going crazy. Her constant reassurance that we would get to the bottom of things and that there were always more solutions we could employ if needed helped me stay motivated to keep going even when symptoms persisted at times. I would absolutely recommend working with her for thyroid, hormonal, and/or gut issues (for me, it was all of the above). My only regret is not reaching out to her sooner to address my concerns. You're the best, Nicole, and I'm so grateful!

"Nicole is one of the best if not the best practitioner I’ve ever worked with"

She provides comprehensive, evidence based information in a way that’s easy to understand and is always available to answer questions and respond to concerns. Nicole not only guided me in managing digestive issues that my doctors dismissed for years but put me on track to get a diagnosis for a condition that could have been extremally dangerous if it had continued to go untreated. I will forever grateful for her care and support

"There isn't enough space in this review box for me to express how thankful I am for Nicole"

I originally came to her for help with GI issues that landed me in the ER three times within 6 months, but ended up learning about + healing other issues I didn't even know existed. Nicole is as thorough as they come, and she will be your biggest cheerleader throughout your time working with her. I don't think "dietician" quite covers the capabilities and expertise Nicole exhibits in all of her work. Not only did she help me heal my gut issues by getting to the root of the problem, she identified other areas (like severe hyperthyroidism) that needed improvement and worked alongside me until we found the right provider for our team. She never stopped advocating for me, and she stuck by my side when I refused a thyroidectomy which was my "only choice" according to the first few doctors I talked with. 6 months later and my gut is healthy, my thyroid is functioning at optimal capacity, and I have my energy back. There are a million other "little" things Nicole helped me accomplish, but I can say with full confidence that I would not be where I am today without her. I cannot recommend Nicole with Chews Food Wisely enough.
