About Illumine Nutrition & Consulting​
​

Who We Are​
​

Wendy Mills, MPH, NTP is the owner of Illumine Nutrition & Consulting in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Wendy is a dedicated and enthusiastic health consultant with experience in the fields of nutrition, public health, epidemiology, and consulting. She is a highly organized and effective professional with enormous commitment and caring for the work she does and the clients she serves. Wendy founded Illumine Nutrition & Consulting as an ideal context for combining her knowledge, cutting-edge training, and transformative personal experience in the area of whole foods nutrition with her extensive expertise in educational presentations, writing/editing, program development, project management, and leadership, which she developed through 20 years of experience in public health epidemiology and consulting.

Illumine Nutrition & Consulting is dedicated to the mission of educating and empowering our clients (both organizations and individuals) to experience their innate vitality and optimal health through the power of nutrition. Our philosophy emphasizes the fundamental importance of a balanced diet centered on wholesome, nutrient-dense, unprocessed "whole" foods for maximum well-being. Our approach is scientifically-based, foundational, integrative, individualized, and strongly positive. ​We believe that no particular "one-size-fits-all" diet is best for every person, always striving to honor the inherent “bio-individuality” of each individual. Approaching nutrition education from a positive and empowering perspective, we enable individuals to experience and understand the vital connection between the foods they eat and how they feel and then educate and empower them with the knowledge necessary to make wise and sustainable dietary choices as an integral component of a lifelong lifestyle that supports health and vitality.

Individual Nutritional Therapy 

Nutritional therapy is an integrative approach to promoting optimal health and wellness though individualized nutritional and lifestyle recommendations, with emphasis on the central importance of a diet centered on nutrient-dense whole foods and the essential priority of physiologically supporting the five foundations of nutrition (i.e., digestion, blood sugar regulation, fatty acid balance, mineral balance, and hydration).  A Nutritional Therapy Practitioner considers the body as a whole and seeks to discern and address the root causes of a client's health concerns, rather than simply treating symptoms. 

Individual nutritional therapy services offered by Illumine Nutrition & Consulting include:
  • comprehensive Initial Assessment that addresses current health status, dietary habits/food history, and completion of a Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire;
  • manual Functional Evaluation to identify areas of nutritional deficiency or weakness and particular nutrients or nutritional supplements that may be beneficial to strengthen those areas;
  • individually tailored Nutritional Plan and Recommendations;
  • follow-up visits to monitor progress and progressively update the Nutritional Plan and Recommendations;
  • serologic food sensitivity testing (as indicated).
