Meet Raluca

          Doctor of Clinical Nutrition &                     Functional Medicine Nutritionist 

 

At Raluca Intuitive Nutrition (RIN), I help clients restore health by uncovering and addressing the root causes of chronic conditions through a clinical nutrition lens. My work focuses on optimizing digestive health, supporting mitochondrial function, enhancing natural detoxification pathways, protecting cardiovascular health, calming autoimmune activity, and balancing the endocrine system.

As a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition, I use a science-based, personalized approach that integrates nutrigenomics, micronutrient assessments, advanced lab interpretation, targeted supplementation, and strategic dietary planning. Every recommendation is thoughtfully designed to align with your medical team’s care plan—bridging the gap between conventional medicine and nutritional medicine.

With a Doctorate in Clinical Nutrition, a Master’s in Human Nutrition & Functional Medicine from the University of Western States, and a Bachelor’s in Health Sciences from Thompson Rivers University, I specialize in applying nutrition at the cellular level to improve gut integrity, metabolic efficiency, and hormonal balance.

My practice is grounded in over a decade of experience in acute and emergency care, including work as a Certified Clinical Anesthesiologist Assistant specializing in cardiac anesthesia and a Registered Respiratory Therapist in Canada. My research background includes authoring the integrative review The Safety of Immediate Extubation and Factors Associated with Delayed Extubation in Cardiac Surgical Patients Receiving Fast Track Cardiac Anesthesia.

My customized nutrition plans are designed to support energy production and identify whether your mitochondria—the energy centers of your cells—need extra care.

I have a gentle approach on detoxification. I support your liver all the way through.

Heart Health

Cardiovascular health is deeply connected to digestive and metabolic function. I take a root-cause approach to heart health by addressing gut integrity, inflammation, and nutrient absorption to support optimal cholesterol, blood pressure, and vascular resilience.

Endocrine Health

My personalized nutrition plans can help support hormonal balance and improve metabolic health for more lasting energy, mood stability, and overall wellbeing.

Autoimmune disorders

At RIN, I address autoimmune conditions by focusing on the health and integrity of the intestinal barrier. Supporting gut function and reducing intestinal permeability is a key part of my root-cause strategy to help modulate immune response and reduce inflammation.

Testimonials

 

"I have been having stomach issues for years and was recently diagnosed with colitis. After trying many different doctors without any real success, I decided to give RIN a try.  Raluca was patient and very compassionate. She was able to identify the source of my issue and together we embarked on a journey of healing. Using various supplements and nutritional guidance I have been able to alleviate my gut distress and get myself on the path to better health. It is so refreshing to work with a medical professional who actually listens and works with you to customize solutions to fit your life. I highly recommend her practice!"
