Thyroid Dietitian - Online Women's Health Dietitian
If your labs keep coming back "normal" but you feel anything but, a thyroid dietitian may be the missing piece of your care team. At Janel Funk Nutrition and Wellness, we specialize in nutrition support for hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's, helping you work with your body instead of fighting it.
You know the symptoms by heart: exhaustion that sleep does not fix, brain fog that makes you lose your train of thought mid-sentence, weight that creeps up no matter how carefully you eat, hair that seems to be everywhere except your head. Janel Funk, MS, RD, LDN and Beth Eckert, RD, CDCES have spent years helping women with thyroid conditions feel like themselves again, and you are not out of options.
Virtual Thyroid Nutrition Support
A thyroid dietitian works alongside your endocrinologist or primary care provider, never in place of them, so your medical care and your nutrition care finally pull in the same direction. Virtual sessions make that support easy to fit into your week. We see clients by secure video across the states we serve, and in person at our Natick, Massachusetts office.
Insurance Accepted for Thyroid Nutrition Counseling
We are in-network with most major insurance plans, and thyroid-related nutrition counseling is frequently covered. We verify your benefits before your first session, self-pay options are available, and your first discovery call is always free.
Why Thyroid Nutrition Is Different
A thyroid condition changes how your body uses energy, which means generic healthy eating advice often misses the mark. A thyroid dietitian builds your plan around the realities of a slower metabolism, fluctuating energy, and medication timing. A thoughtful hypothyroidism diet is not about eating less. It is about eating strategically so your body gets what it needs to function at its best.
How a Thyroid Dietitian Supports Your Health
Our thyroid nutrition approach is evidence-based, practical, and built around your real life. Here is what we work on together:
Key Nutrients: Selenium, zinc, iodine, and iron all play roles in thyroid function, and we help you get them from food first.
Medication Timing: Simple scheduling strategies so your thyroid medication absorbs properly, including the coffee conversation nobody had with you.
Blood Sugar Stability: Steady glucose supports steadier energy, which matters even more when your thyroid is sluggish.
The Gut Connection: A large share of immune activity happens in the gut, which makes digestion a key piece of any Hashimoto's diet conversation.
Gluten, Explained Honestly: We walk you through the actual evidence on gluten and Hashimoto's so you can make an informed choice instead of a fearful one.
Sustainable Energy: Meal strategies that work with your energy levels on good days and bad ones alike.
Credentialed Care: Both Janel and Beth are registered dietitians, which means clinical training and insurance eligibility behind every session.
And much more. Book a free discovery call to explore how we can support your goals.
A Hashimotos Dietitian Who Gets It
As a Hashimotos dietitian team, we understand that autoimmune thyroid conditions come with flares, frustration, and a lot of dismissive appointments. You will not get that here. We take your symptoms seriously, we look at the full picture of your health, and we build a plan around foods for thyroid health that you genuinely enjoy eating.
