Meet Ryah Nabielski, MS, RDN
Hi, I’m Ryah (pronounced Ree-ah) and I’m not your typical dietitian. Starting out in environmental studies and sustainable agriculture, I was always interested in how we are connected to the earth through the food we eat. That led me to my graduate work at Bastyr University in Seattle, Washington, the leading whole food and natural medicine-based nutrition program in the country, providing a solid foundation in functional nutrition and clinical experience. I started my private practice, Eco Nutrition, in 2009 while completing additional training in eating psychology, eating disorders, food sensitivities, women’s health, and functional medicine. I have worked with Marc David, Dr. Mark Hyman, and other health leaders to reshape how we connect to food and ourselves.
Through my own unexpected challenges preparing my body for pregnancy, pregnancy, and the postpartum period, I recognized how deeply we, as women, need to give ourselves more compassion and grace during times of transition. It reinforced my passion to help more women prioritize their own health and self-care, while navigating their changing roles. That’s when I forged my own path, and redefined my practice and mission, so I can help more women navigate fertility, hormone balance, and creating a relationship with food that is aligned with their unique bodies.
I live in the Denver, Colorado area with my husband and our young daughter. We love exploring nature, local food, walking, resting and enjoying all the beauty and simplicity of life.

What is Functional Nutrition?
Through a food-as-medicine approach that honors each person's unique biochemistry, genetics, preferences, and lifestyle, we'll work together to uncover connections and dig deep to find root causes of your health challenges. Together, we turn to nature, traditional wisdom, and science to understand your nutrition needs and physiology. Instead of prescribing rules to follow, we understand the 'why' to create a plan that is healing, realistic and in tune with your life.
From fertility to hormonal to autoimmune health, you deserve the knowledge to make your own choices and always remain the #1 expert of your body.
Tools and resources we may use together include: Medical Nutrition Therapy, functional lab testing, high quality supplements, herbal medicine, homeopathy, lifestyle medicine, mind-body approaches, intuitive eating, improving relationship with food and body, self-care and self-love.
