About Dr. Fowler, DCN
Dr Helena Fowler, DCN is a functional medicine-based Doctor of Clinical Nutrition who specializes in functional nutrition, stress, and stress-related concerns. She strongly believes in using her knowledge of nutrition, food, and the body to make a positive impact on human health and wellbeing, especially for women.
She does this in several ways, from the micro to the macro.
Individuals and small groups
Food Is Function is a private practice where Dr Fowler works with high-performing women—from executives and ballet dancers to physicians and first responders—who experience high levels of stress and related gut dysfunction, hormone and metabolic imbalance, inflammation, and dysregulated sleep.
She uses food and lifestyle interventions, grounded in functional medicine and Ayurveda, to create personalized care plans tailored to the needs of each client that educate the client about how food impacts the function, health and health outcomes of their body. She helps each client find their unique balance, flow and optimal health.
Startup fractional CMO and Advisor
As a co-founder of Mind the Gap Services, Dr Fowler combines her knowledge of nutrition science with her two decades of experience in marketing and product strategy in the tech space, to help shape the businesses, markets and industries of tomorrow.
Dr. Fowler and her co-founder, Sarah Pettay, help impact-driven startups in the FemTech, food, health and wellness, and climate/sustainability spaces to ensure they understand the needs of their customers and help them deliver on the important problems they’re trying to solve. It’s rather shocking how many Founders in the health and FemTech space have ZERO health background or knowledge.
Dr. Fowler and Sarah are passionate about supporting and empowering women Founders and leaders to help close the gap in resources that women Founders and CEOs often face. Dr. Fowler believes that women’s health products and services can best support the health outcomes of women, when they’re created by women for women.
