Personalized Nutrition for Menopause Gut, Hormone, and Metabolic Health

At the intersection of menopause and the gut microbiome, everything is connected.

The MenoBiome Method™


A strategic, physiology-based approach to menopause and gut health.

When the gut becomes unstable, symptoms often feel more disruptive and harder to resolve. This is where we begin.

This is a personalized, food-first approach that supports your gut, hormones, and metabolism together. We begin by investigating what is happening in your body, using your symptoms and functional testing to uncover patterns and guide your plan.

This is not a quick reset. It is the kind of work that creates change you can actually sustain.

When your body is supported in the right way, this is what begins to shift:

  • Feeling more steady in your body instead of unpredictable
  • Waking up with energy that lasts through the day
  • Digestion that feels calm, not reactive
  • Weight and metabolism that begin to respond again
  • The resilience to move through this season feeling steadier and more supported

A Different Approach to Functional Nutrition

Built around your data, your patterns, and your current season.
The body doesn’t operate in isolated pathways.

Nourishment as the Foundation

Food is part of your traditions, your culture, and your memories. It is personal. Together, we create a plan that supports your body and also fits your life.

We focus on nutrient-dense, whole food strategies that support your personal digestion, stabilize blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and improve how your body processes hormones.

Gut Health as the Center

During menopause, digestion and microbiome balance often shift before symptoms fully make sense.

This is where we begin to understand what is happening in your body.

Using your own microbiome data through a simple, at-home test, we identify patterns that connect your symptoms to the underlying shifts.

Hormones & Metabolism
as the Drivers

Midlife is a metabolic transition as much as a hormonal one.

As estrogen changes, insulin sensitivity, fat distribution, and inflammatory patterns often shift before symptoms fully make sense.

Through comprehensive hormone and metabolic testing, we look beyond surface levels to understand how your body is producing, metabolizing, and responding to these changes, including your cortisol and stress patterns.


Functional Testing

Functional testing is a way to look at how your body is functioning beneath the surface, not just the symptoms you are experiencing. From there, we use your data to create a personalized plan built specifically for your body, not based on guesswork.

A functional stool test gives us a deeper look at your gut and digestion.

It helps us understand how well your body is breaking down and absorbing food, the balance of beneficial and opportunistic bacteria, and whether inflammation or infection may be contributing to your symptoms.

This is where patterns begin to connect between digestion, hormone balance, and overall function.

Comprehensive hormone testing evaluates not only hormone levels, but how they are being metabolized and regulated in the body.

It includes insight into cortisol patterns, stress response, and hormone pathways that are not visible on standard testing.

These insights guide a more targeted and personalized approach to care.

Nutrient and metabolic testing helps us understand how your body is using nutrients and producing energy beneath the surface.

We assess patterns that influence metabolism, energy, and overall function so your plan is built specifically for what your body needs, not based on guesswork.

What Clients Are Saying

These are shared experiences from women I’ve had the privilege to support through different seasons of health.

Liz

Jerri has been a Godsend – not only to me, but to multiple generations of my family. Her depth of knowledge in nutrition, supplements, and lab interpretation is extraordinary. She’s helped me navigate lifelong health challenges along with age- and hormone-related shifts, and the difference has been life-changing. Her genuine kindness makes working with her a joy.

Krissa

As a mom and an athlete, for years, I struggled with a negative body image that affected my mental health in the long run.  From the very first session, she helped me understand that nutrition isn’t just about aesthetics – it’s about fueling my body for performance, energy, and overall well-being.

Sandra

Finding Jerri Hasek at Curative Wellness has been the reward at the end of a treasure hunt.  She is smart and caring and engaged with me on my path in wellness.  Aging is challenging with unanticipated changes happening to the body continually though I am grateful to have an aging body.  My goal is to age as well as possible to live a long healthy (as possible) life without drastic measures or cost. She speaks my language on health, something I find rare and exciting.

Common Questions

These are common starting questions. Your situation may look different, and that’s where personalized care begins.

Functional nutrition looks at how different parts of the body work together, especially during transitions like menopause. Rather than chasing symptoms, it looks for patterns across digestion, inflammation, blood sugar, hormones, stress, and lifestyle. It prioritizes food first strategies. It provides targeted support when needed. This approach helps the body restore balance in a realistic and sustainable way.

Metabolic health means your body can turn food into steady energy without big crashes, cravings, or stubborn weight gain. During menopause, this system often shifts, which is why supporting it becomes so important.

A Certified Nutrition Specialist® (CNS) is a board-certified clinical nutrition professional with master’s or doctoral degree in nutrition science. CNS practitioners complete extensive coursework in biology, physiology, biochemistry, and advanced medical nutrition therapy, followed by supervised clinical experience and a comprehensive national board examination administered by the Board for Certification of Nutrition Specialists.

This training prepares CNS professionals to assess complex metabolic, digestive, hormonal, and inflammatory patterns and deliver highly personalized, research-based nutrition care. Learn more American Nutrition Association

Both Licensed Nutritionists and Registered Dietitians are qualified nutrition professionals, but their training pathways and areas of focus can differ.

Licensed Nutritionists who hold the Certified Nutrition Specialist® (CNS) credential are required to complete a master’s or doctoral degree in nutrition, along with advanced coursework in biochemistry, physiology, and clinical nutrition, and supervised clinical experience.

Registered Dietitians (RDNs) complete accredited education, supervised practice, and a national exam. Historically, this pathway required a bachelor’s degree; however, a graduate degree is now required for new RDNs entering the field as of 2024.

In practice, CNS practitioners tend to focus on personalized, systems-based, and functional nutrition care, while RDNs are often found in clinical and hospital-based settings.

Both credentials play an important role in healthcare. Choosing the right practitioner often depends on your individual needs, goals, and the type of support you are seeking.
