Nurturing Your Child's Health and Vitality for a Thriving Future.
Welcome to My Practice - Improving Your Child's Health Through Personalized Nutrition and Lab Testing.
Welcome to my practice where I specialize in personalized Nutrition and Functional Lab testing to support children on the autism spectrum in achieving optimal health and wellbeing. As a parent of a child with autism who is thriving, I am dedicated to helping families uncover hidden stressors. I also specialize in addressing issues such as picky eating and sensory concerns, all to restore balance and improve your child’s health.
As a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner with years of experience, I am passionate about providing personalized solutions to support your child's journey. Let's work together to uncover the root cause of any underlying health concerns and help your child reach their full potential.
Rita Mastrangelo, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner
Hi, my name is Rita Mastrangelo and I’m a Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, Health Coach and Author of the popular/acclaimed ebook, Picky Eaters: Nutrition and Mealtime Routines for Your Picky Eater, and a passionate advocate and mentor for families struggling to find balance after an autism diagnosis.
My mission is to stop the endless guesswork and use nutritional+functional lab testing to boldly break through many of the everyday barrier’s families with children on the spectrum face and help you to uncover the hidden stresses and dysfunctions that may be fueling imbalance and throwing so much of your lives into chaos. Together we’ll implement a holistic and all-natural family approach to sustainable health and gut wellness so that you can get back to living life again and creating even more memorable moments with your loved ones.
And through my personal experience and expertise, I get to empower parents like you to become the best version of YOURself too, so you can be the greatest (and most informed) support system for your child with autism.
Optimize your health through Functional testing and Nutrition.
My programs are designed to help support adults and children, you or your loved ones through a functional testing process to get to the root cause of your worrisome symptoms. I provide you with a road map and support to help you and your child optimize your health and feel better. My programs are based on my education, but even more profound than that, my hands-on experience of what has worked through my own personal journey with gut and health issues and helping my Autistic son have a better quality of life.
This is the exact reason why I started Purely Functional Nutrition, to support you and the people around you that are in desperate need of help when it comes to taking control of their health and nutrition. Diagnostic testing gets us to the root of your child’s uniquely specific autism so that you can learn and grow together again. The end goal is for you or your child to regain your health, where the conventional way has failed you.
I look forward to connecting with you and beginning this journey on the road to a better (less picky, but more rewarding) life for you and your child.

Are you struggling with a child who is a picky eater?
I created this ebook to help other parents with picky eaters. It is based on my own personal experience with my Autistic son Jordan. I have used these strategies with him and with other clients and they work!
