About Laura | Holistic Nutritionist & Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) for Gut & Hormone Health

Helping women nourish their digestion, balance hormones, and build a lifestyle they feel good in every single day.

Driven by my own food intolerances, I launched Eat Your Nutrition in 2017 to share nutrition and wellness insights that empower others to nourish their bodies through food and lifestyle changes.

🌼 My Story: Why I Created Eat Your Nutrition™

I'm Laura Villanueva, BSc in Nutrition Science & Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP).

I'm passionate about helping women understand what their bodies are trying to tell them; especially when it comes to digestion, hormones, energy, and food that actually works for their body.

My own journey started long before I ever became a nutritionist.

After being diagnosed with celiac disease, I spent years feeling unheard, overlooked, and confused by symptoms that never seemed to make sense. I went from doctor to doctor, trying every "quick fix," supplement, and trendy diet that promised relief… but nothing ever addressed what my body actually needed.

I knew there had to be a better way.

That's when I shifted my approach not toward restriction, but toward understanding my own biology, nurturing my digestion, and supporting my hormones through personalized nutrition and lifestyle rhythms.

What began as a deeply personal search for answers turned into Eat Your Nutrition™, a brand devoted to helping women build confidence, calm, and clarity with their health through food, habits, and sustainable wellness practices.

💛 If any of this feels familiar, you're in the right place.

Maybe you've…

• Tried to get help but felt brushed off or misunderstood.
• Spent years searching for answers online with no real clarity.
• Done "all the right things" but still feel tired, bloated, or out of balance.
• Eliminated foods but still don't feel your best.
• Wondered why some people seem to thrive effortlessly while you struggle silently.
• Felt overwhelmed, discouraged, or like your body is working against you.

You are not alone, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. Your body simply needs a plan that makes sense for you.

🌿 My Approach: Support the Systems That Support You

Instead of chasing symptoms or quick fixes, I focus on understanding what your body may be asking for. That includes exploring:

• Digestive patterns.
• Hormone rhythms.
• Blood sugar balance.
• Mineral status.
• Daily habits and nourishment.
• Stress + nervous system patterns.

I use a holistic, nutrition-forward, whole-body approach that helps you feel grounded, informed, and supported on your wellness journey.

No extremes. No shame. No "perfect eating." Just practical, sustainable tools that help you feel better in your daily life.
