Fresno's Clinical Nutritionist — A Whole-Body Approach to Food & Health

Most people know that what they eat affects how they feel — but few realize just how deeply nutrition impacts everything from energy levels and brain function to chronic pain, inflammation, and weight.

At The Natural Path Health Center, Dr. Mikell Suzanne Parsons, DC, CCN, DACBN, DACNB takes a functional approach to nutrition. That means we don't just hand you a generic diet plan — we identify the underlying imbalances driving your symptoms and build a personalized program to correct them, naturally.

As a certified clinical nutritionist and certified gluten-free practitioner, Dr. Parsons brings decades of real-world experience helping Fresno patients overcome chronic health challenges through the power of targeted nutrition.

Who Our Nutrition Programs Help

Chronic Fatigue & Low Energy

If you're constantly tired no matter how much you sleep, nutritional deficiencies or gut dysfunction may be to blame. We identify the root cause and build a plan to restore your energy naturally.

Gluten Sensitivity & Digestive Issues

As a certified gluten-free practitioner, Dr. Parsons helps patients successfully transition to a gluten-free lifestyle — reducing bloating, brain fog, inflammation, and digestive discomfort.

Weight Management

Struggling to lose weight despite doing everything right? Hormonal imbalances, inflammation, and nutritional deficiencies are often the hidden cause. We address the root issue, not just the symptom.

Chronic Inflammation

Inflammation is at the root of most chronic disease. Our anti-inflammatory nutrition protocols help reduce pain, improve mobility, and lower your long-term health risks — without medication.

A Patient's Perspective

Sometimes the best way to describe an experience is through the eyes of a patient. This lighthearted poem captures Dr. Parsons' thoughtful approach to uncovering the root causes of digestive health concerns—and why no question is too small when it comes to your wellness.

Sink or Float?

Dr. Parsons, cute as a bug is she.

Darling and friendly as can be.

While chatting with her you're having a delightful time.

Then she starts in with the questions, got any slime?

On those questions, she really makes you think.

Then it gets a little too personal when she asks does your poop stink?

Doesn't everyone's I reply?

In varying degrees, her expression is wry.

The next thing you know she's asking does it float or sink?

Oh my goodness, on that I'll have to think.

Then I learn to my surprise,

Sinking is far better, this I had yet to surmise.

On and on the chatter goes.

Sometimes it's enough to curl your toes.

In the end it's all for your benefit you see.

So she can gain insight into your poop and pee!
