About me
Eleanor Yomtobian-Askari , DCN, MS , CNS, LDN
My path into nutrition and functional medicine began after a personal back injury that traditional care only addressed by managing symptoms rather than uncovering root causes. That experience led me to explore nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and evidence-based functional approaches that ultimately supported my recovery and reshaped my understanding of health.
This journey inspired me to pursue advanced clinical training in nutrition and functional medicine, with a commitment to helping others address the underlying drivers of chronic symptoms and optimize long-term health.
My Approach:
I specialize in functional nutrition with a clinical focus on mental health, metabolic health, cognitive wellness, hormonal balance, and longevity.
My approach integrates evidence-based nutrition science with functional medicine principles to identify and address root contributors to symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, weight changes, and hormonal imbalance.
Where appropriate, I incorporate genetic insights, blood work, stool analysis, and lifestyle assessment to create highly personalized care plans.
