About Isabella

I am Isabella Gallardo, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist from San Diego, California. I am passionate about helping others improve their health, prevent disease, and increase vitality through nutrition. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and have been working in the telehealth 1:1 nutrition counseling arena since early 2022.

Approach to care

My nutrition philosophy involves utilizing food as medicine, exploring evidence-based functional nutrition solutions to create personalized roadmaps. I focus on moderation and strategies to support a sustainable change. As part of my client-centered approach, I take into account lifestyle (e.g. sleep, exercise, eating habits, stress levels), cultural background, food preferences, budget, and personal wellness goals. I enjoy finding creative ways to help clients thrive, reach, and sustain their nutrition goals. Let’s work together!

Your first session with Isabella

We will discuss your nutrition and wellness goals, medical history, current medications and supplements, sleep and exercise habits, and current nutrition habits to draft a plan for the next 8-12 weeks. By the end of the initial session we will create 1-2 simple action items for you to implement during the upcoming week before our next session. I am open to feedback and changing my approach to support you in the best way possible during your nutrition journey!
