Welcome to the
Functional Kitchen!
I am Gretchen Spetz, founder of the Functional Kitchen and licensed dietitian nutritionist.
If you are looking for a personalized and integrative approach to feeling your very best, this is the place for you.
I am passionate about empowering women to live their most confident, compassionate and self-assured life. Each nutrition program is designed to provide powerful transformation and empower you with the knowledge that you need to show up as the most impactful version of yourself. As a busy entrepreneur and mom, I know how important it is to be able to show up with full energy.
My approach to nutrition starts in the kitchen, but goes so much deeper than that. Together, we will transform your mindset along with physicality. You will leave each experience feeling more empowered than you were before to make choices that have sustainable impact on your longevity, fat loss and energy levels.
As part of the Functional Kitchen community, I help people learn how to regenerate themselves through food. You will learn to balance your blood sugar to increase your energy and enhance your mental clarity, optimize your gut health, and achieve long-term fat loss. It all starts with a free complimentary call. Book yours today! I look forward in supporting you on your nutrition journey.
