Hi, I’m Lisa Cross, a Functional Nutritionist passionate about helping people take control of their health and feel their best. My journey into personalized nutrition began in 2009, after the birth of my second daughter. Life with a newborn and a toddler was already a whirlwind, but just two months in, I was hit with tinnitus, hearing loss, and vertigo—scary symptoms no mom wants to face. Three years later, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.
But here’s the good news: I’ve had no disease progression since my diagnosis, and I truly believe that food and lifestyle changes have played a huge role in my health journey.
“Let food be thy medicine, and let medicine be thy food.” ~Hippocrates
You’ve probably heard the phrase, “Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food”—Hippocrates was really onto something! When I was diagnosed, I asked myself, “What can I do to take control?” That question led me down a rabbit hole of research connecting diet, lifestyle, and autoimmune health. I discovered how deeply our choices impact everything from our energy to how our genes express themselves. It was empowering, and it’s the approach I bring to my clients today.
What I learned on my journey is that there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. We’re all unique, and finding what works for you—your own bioindividuality—is key to unlocking your best health. That’s what I’m here to help you discover.
I live in Los Gatos, California, with my husband, two amazing daughters, and our two adorable dogs. My background spans careers in gene mapping, software development, and program management, but nothing has been more rewarding than supporting others in transforming their health and well-being.
