Registered Dietitian Nutritionist

Women’s Gut, Hormone & Metabolic Health Dietitian

Julie Pace, RDN is a licensed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with over 25 years of clinical experience helping women restore digestive function, reduce inflammation, and improve gut-hormone-metabolic health.

She specializes in evidence-based nutrition therapy for:

  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

  • Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)

  • Reflux / GERD

  • Chronic bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhea

  • Food sensitivities and intolerances

  • Microbiome imbalance

  • Inflammatory bowel disease (Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s disease)

Every plan is personalized using your labs, medical history, and symptom patterns. The goal is to restore gut health, expand your food options, and improve overall well-being.

Why Digestive Symptoms Persist

Many women are prescribed temporary fixes like:

  • Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs)

  • Repeated elimination diets

  • Generic “avoid trigger foods” advice

These may reduce symptoms temporarily but don’t address root causes such as:

  • Microbiome imbalance

  • Impaired motility (gastroparesis, IBS, chronic constipation)

  • Enzyme insufficiency

  • Chronic stress and gut-brain axis dysregulation

  • Inflammation and immune activation

  • Hormonal influences on digestion

Our approach treats the root causes, not just the symptoms.

Digestive Conditions We Treat

As a Registered Dietitian providing Medical Nutrition Therapy, Julie helps women with:

  • IBS

  • SIBO

  • Reflux / GERD

  • Chronic bloating or gas

  • Constipation or diarrhea

  • Food sensitivities or intolerances

  • Intestinal permeability

  • Ulcerative Colitis & Crohn’s Disease

If your symptoms don’t fit neatly into one diagnosis, we evaluate patterns, triggers, and physiology to create a structured, personalized plan.

Restore gut health with a functional nutrition plan

Functional & Integrative Nutrition Approach to Gut Health

This is not a long-term restrictive diet. Plans are tailored and may include:

Targeted Therapeutic Nutrition

  • Symptom-guided dietary strategies while maintaining nutrient adequacy

Microbiome Support

  • Evidence-based use of fiber diversity, probiotics, and gut-supportive nutrients

Digestive Optimization

  • Support for stomach acid, enzymes, and motility patterns

Gut-Brain Axis Regulation

  • Stress physiology strategies to reduce flare-ups and improve digestion

Structured Food Reintroduction

  • Safely expand dietary variety to prevent long-term restriction

The goal is resilience, not dependence on avoidance. Enjoy food confidently again

Functional and integrative nutrition for gut health

The Gut–Hormone–Metabolic Connection

Digestive dysfunction can impact:

  • Estrogen clearance and hormone metabolism

  • Thyroid hormone conversion

  • Insulin sensitivity and blood sugar regulation

  • Cortisol balance and stress response

  • Systemic inflammation

Many women with IBS, SIBO, or chronic bloating also struggle with hormonal or metabolic issues. When appropriate, digestive care is integrated with hormone and metabolic-focused nutrition for whole-body results.

What Women Experience

Women working with Julie often report:

  • Reduced bloating and abdominal discomfort

  • Improved bowel consistency

  • Fewer reflux episodes

  • Expanded food tolerance

  • Increased energy levels

  • Stabilized blood sugar

  • Reduced inflammation markers

  • Less anxiety around eating

Digestive health should improve your quality of life, not restrict it.
