Registered Dietitian Nutritionist
Women’s Gut, Hormone & Metabolic Health Dietitian
Julie Pace, RDN, is a nationally recognized dietitian specializing in women’s gut, hormone, and metabolic health. She helps women move beyond restrictive diets and short-term symptom management through a personalized, functional nutrition approach to digestive care.
Her approach focuses on identifying the underlying factors driving ongoing digestive symptoms and gut-related inflammation so women can feel more confident in what they eat and have less stress surrounding food.
Her expertise has been featured in national publications including Healthline, Everyday Health, Real Simple, EatingWell, Parade, and Health.com, where she shares expert guidance on digestive health, hormone wellness, and sustainable nutrition.
Digestive Concerns Supported
Julie provides medical nutrition therapy for women struggling with:
-
IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)
-
SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)
-
Reflux and GERD
-
Chronic bloating and gas
-
Constipation and diarrhea
-
Food sensitivities and intolerances
-
Microbiome imbalance
-
Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease
Even when symptoms do not fit neatly into one diagnosis, care is personalized around your symptom patterns, history, labs, and health goals.
Why Digestive Symptoms Often Keep Coming Back
Many women are given short-term advice such as avoiding trigger foods, following repeated elimination diets, or relying only on medications to manage symptoms. While these approaches may offer temporary relief, they often do not address the underlying factors contributing to digestive dysfunction.
These may include:
-
microbiome imbalance
-
impaired motility
-
low stomach acid or enzyme insufficiency
-
chronic stress and gut-brain axis dysregulation
-
inflammation and immune activation
-
hormone and metabolic imbalances affecting digestion
A more personalized nutrition approach can help identify what is driving symptoms and create a plan that supports both relief and long-term gut health.
A Functional Nutrition Approach to Improve Gut Health
Integrative medical nutrition therapy looks at how food, digestion, lifestyle, stress, and physiology work together to influence health symptoms and overall well-being. Instead of offering one-size-fits-all diet rules, Julie uses a functional nutrition approach to help women understand what to eat, what may be aggravating symptoms, and how to support digestive health in a practical, sustainable way.
This may include support for:
-
improving diet quality while reducing symptom triggers
-
building a more diverse, gut-supportive eating pattern
-
supporting motility, regularity, and digestion
-
improving tolerance to foods over time
-
reducing stress-related digestive flare-ups
-
supporting the gut-hormone-metabolic connection
The Gut, Hormone & Metabolic Health Connection
Digestive symptoms do not happen in isolation. Gut health can influence hormone balance, blood sugar regulation, inflammation, and energy levels.
For many women, concerns such as IBS, bloating, reflux, or irregular bowel habits may overlap with issues involving:
-
estrogen metabolism
-
thyroid function
-
insulin resistance and blood sugar balance
-
cortisol and stress response
-
chronic inflammation
Because these systems are closely connected, supporting hormone and metabolic health can be an important part of improving gut health.
