I’m Giannina Craia, a Hormonal & Metabolic Health Specialist with a clinical nutrition background and a personalized, root-cause approach to health.

I work with both women and men experiencing persistent symptoms related to hormonal imbalance, metabolic dysfunction, chronic stress, fatigue, weight changes, poor sleep, insulin resistance, menopause, perimenopause, and age-related hormonal decline.

My work is based on understanding the body as a whole — not only isolated symptoms or standard dietary recommendations. I focus on identifying possible underlying imbalances by correlating symptoms, lifestyle factors, medical history, and biomarker interpretation in the context of optimal health, not simply “normal” laboratory ranges.

Many people are told their blood work is “normal” while still struggling with:

• fatigue and low energy

• unexplained weight gain

• abdominal fat accumulation

• brain fog and poor concentration

• sleep disturbances

• anxiety, irritability, or mood fluctuations

• low libido

• digestive discomfort

• metabolic and inflammatory symptoms

For women, hormonal transitions such as perimenopause and menopause can significantly impact metabolism, body composition, energy, mood, and overall wellbeing. I provide personalized nutritional and lifestyle strategies designed to support hormonal balance, metabolic health, symptom management, and long-term vitality.

I also work with women experiencing concerns related to:

• PCOS

• insulin resistance

• metabolic dysfunction

• chronic inflammation

• stress-related hormonal imbalance

• difficulty losing weight despite restrictive dieting

For men, age-related hormonal changes, chronic stress, poor recovery, metabolic syndrome, and testosterone-related symptoms are becoming increasingly common. Many men experience:

• persistent fatigue

• reduced motivation and performance

• abdominal weight gain

• poor sleep quality

• reduced muscle mass

• low libido

• stress-related symptoms and burnout

My approach focuses on understanding the broader hormonal and metabolic picture through personalized assessment, nutritional guidance, biomarker interpretation, lifestyle optimization, and ongoing support.

I work alongside your physician when needed, offering complementary support through nutrition, symptom correlation, and metabolic optimization.

My approach combines:

• clinical nutrition

• hormonal and metabolic support

• biomarker interpretation

• personalized nutrition strategies

• stress and lifestyle management

• continuous monitoring and adjustments

I believe sustainable health improvements happen when we stop applying generic solutions and start understanding how the body is actually functioning.

My goal is to help you gain clarity, restore balance, improve metabolic and hormonal function, and build realistic long-term strategies that support your energy, wellbeing, and overall quality of life.

• Master’s Degree in Clinical Nutrition — Faculty of Medicine, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science and Technology of Târgu Mureș, Romania

• Ongoing advanced education in hormonal, metabolic, cardiovascular, and functional nutrition

Continuous professional training focused on:

• menopause & perimenopause support

• men’s hormonal health & age-related metabolic changes

• insulin resistance & metabolic dysfunction

• cardiovascular and metabolic health

• micronutrition & personalized nutrition strategies

• biomarker interpretation and functional health support

There is no universal solution that works for everyone.

Every body responds differently depending on hormonal status, metabolism, stress levels, sleep quality, medical history, nutrition, and lifestyle.

That is why I focus on:

• understanding the root cause

• correlating symptoms with biomarkers

• creating realistic and sustainable strategies

• supporting long-term metabolic and hormonal health

• helping clients better understand how their body functions

My work is designed to provide clarity, personalized guidance, and a balanced approach that supports lasting health improvements — not temporary fixes.
