Nutrition Simplified is a trusted functional nutrition practice specializing in gut health, hormone balance, and metabolic function. Through metabolic testing, personalized nutrition, and lifestyle strategies, we help you understand what your body needs to function at its best—so you can improve energy, digestion, metabolism, and overall well-being.
Chelsea Barringer is a Nutritionist and Board-Certified Holistic Health Practitioner specializing in gut health, hormone balance, and metabolic function. Since founding her private practice in 2010, she has helped clients better understand their bodies and use nutrition as a powerful tool to support energy, digestion, metabolism, and overall well-being.
With a Master’s degree in Holistic Nutrition and over 18 years of clinical experience, Chelsea combines evidence-informed nutrition with a practical, real-life approach—helping clients move beyond quick fixes and uncover the root factors influencing how they feel and function.
Her approach is compassionate, individualized, and grounded in the belief that lasting health changes happen when science meets the uniqueness of each person. Because nutrition is never one-size-fits-all, every plan is thoughtfully tailored to align with each client’s needs, goals, and lifestyle.
Based in Portland, Maine, Chelsea offers in-person and Telehealth appointments through her private practice, supporting clients locally and nationwide on their journey toward better health.
