Your labs are normal.
Your body isn’t.
I’m Loreta Labode, RN — a critical-care nurse turned functional medicine practitioner, working under the supervision of Dr. Jean-Carlos Jimenez, MD. I spend my days catching the changes that standard panels miss, the same way I was trained to catch them in the ICU.
You’ve been told everything looks fine.
You know it isn’t.
If your last set of labs came back “normal” and you still don’t feel like yourself, you’re not imagining it — and you’re in the right place.
The nurse hospitals call when a patient is quietly getting worse.
Before this practice, I spent nine years in trauma, neuro, and medical ICUs across some of the busiest units in the Northeast. That training is exactly what I bring to functional medicine: I don’t wait for a number to cross a line before I take a concern seriously.

I grew up eating the way my Balkan family always had — real food, real meals, nothing off-limits — and I’ve never forgotten how different that made my body feel from the version of “healthy eating” most Americans are sold. That’s the lens I bring to every protocol I write.
