Intro Bio | Rachel has been working in the nutrition field since 2016 with a main focus on gut and mental health. ‘Sunflower Nutrition’ stems from Rachel’s love of positivity and hope in good things to come. She herself has dealt with multiple chronic conditions like IBS, SIBO, mood disorders and Migraines with Auras. She takes a guided and therapeutic approach with clients to provide them the best support they need without overwhelming them with too many changes. Credentials include a Bachelor’s in Food and Nutrition from Framingham State University (2018), over 5,000 clinical hours (inpatient and outpatient), and she was part of the inaugural class of dietetic interns for the first geriatric based and Harvard Medical School affiliated dietetic internship (Hebrew Senior Life, class of 2022). Rachel received her RDN and LDN in 2023 and started her private practice Sunflower Nutrition LLC a year later in 2024. Recently, Rachel just finished Monash University’s Low FODMAP course! “In nutrition counseling, one approach doesn’t suit everyone, especially in today’s tech-savvy era with abundant information available. I have worked with both the newcomer and the expert when it comes to nutritional counseling. As long as you are ready to make a change I am ready to help you too! We are a good fit if you are looking for personalized nutrition plans and compassionate support, with the aim to improve both your digestive health and overall quality of life.” |
Fun Fact! | The first food I made after recovery (SIBO) was mac and cheese – I tried about 5 different recipes until I found the best dairy and gluten free option! |
