WHO WE HELP

I'm so glad you're here. I’m a Functional Nutrition Dietitian, an Integrative and Functional Nutrition Certified Practitioner, soon to be Clinical Herbalist, and founder of Made with Barakah.

I have a compassionate approach with all my clients and I love the process of seeing them make tiny changes that turn into big and sustainable wins! You can find me skimming my kindle keeping up to date with the latest in nutrition, functional medicine, and health (see what I'm reading here!) while baking sourdough bread in between client sessions.

Meet Alah Elasmar, RD, LD, IFNCP

Your Functional NutrItion Dietitian

Mind-body connection integrating lifestyle changes and nervous system regulation tools to create a holistic plan for you.

Personalized nutrition tailored to your specific needs, lifestyle, and health goals. 

Comprehensive medical symptoms questionnaire to help connect the dots internally and reach root cause solutions.

Food as medicine approach to help support your body's capacity to heal and thrive.

Root cause approach that goes beyond symptom management using functional lab testing such as DUTCH + GI-MAP to assess hormone and gut health.

Our approach goes beyond creating meal plans and calorie counting; Our focus is on addressing you, the entire person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. We believe optimal health involves looking at the body from a holistic point of view and addressing health issues from their root cause. That includes assessing nutrition intake, conventional + functional labs, stress, sleep, movement/exercise, nervous system health, genetics (nutrigenomics/epigenetics), hormones, and the gut microbiome.

About

Anisa K.

“My reflections on our sessions, especially when we first began, is that on top of seeing physical changes in my body from following your advice, the emotional aspect of my health journey improved so much in the sense that it became very easy to be forgiving towards myself and my habits and it helped with my emotional relationship with food! It felt really good to dedicate time to my mindset and then link it to my diet.”

Patricia W.

"I'm more consistent with taking my magnesium supplement which has been very helpful for my overall health and mood as well as the anti-inflammatory supplements like fish oil, Vitamin D3 + K2, and turmeric."

Sophie T.

"I've noticed my face has gotten a lot slimmer since I reduced my refined sugar intake and my clothes fit a lot better! I have also noticed less bloating and less swelling."

Tamiraa S.

I've noticed reduced bloating, I feel less bloated, reduced overall sugar intake, and I've been drinking at least 2 water bottles (32 oz) with minerals daily. My skin is clearer!
