Bienestar Nutrition LLC
Spring Hill, FL · Nutrition / Dietetics
Bienestar Nutrition, LLC is a private practice located in central Florida specializing in integrating traditional medical nutrition therapy with complementary and alternative therapies for a whole-body, systems approach to healing. Our mission can be found in our name, Bienestar, which means well-being in the Spanish language. At Bienestar Nutrition we believe that well-being encompasses aspiring to a state of satisfaction with one’s body, food choices, identity and quality of life that provides peace of mind, pleasure, happiness, good health and welfare for the individual living with or without a chronic condition. Each individual has their own biological, physiological, genetic, cultural, stress, and socio-economical factors that shape their relationship and lived experience with food. This uniqueness makes everyone’s lived experience around nutrition different. At Bienestar Nutrition we believe a one-size-fit-all approach or ideology to not be appropriate for every individual and has the potential to create harm to the individual’s identity, preferences, and long-term health outcomes. Our focus is on providing a supportive and compassionate environment that honors and respects the individual’s culture, lived experience, and goals for care. Together, we collaborate on finding solutions to your nutritional concerns that are practical, realistic, and supportive to your individual needs. At Bienestar Nutrition we believe collaborative healthcare to be the most effective healthcare. With your consent, we may also collaborate with other members of your healthcare team or recommend appropriate referral to provide you with the most comprehensive and well-rounded approach to healing. With ongoing support, collaboration, and compassionate care when needed, we strive to provide you with the tools and resources needed for lifelong care, as well as, build a community where you do not have to feel like you are in this alone. Lisa is currently licensed to practice in Alabama, Florida, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, and North Carolina, USA.

Alane Wincek
Alpharetta, GA · Nutrition / Dietetics
Practitioner Profile – Alane Wincek, ND, CNC I am a certified holistic nutritionist, naturopath, with over 30 years of experience supporting complex, chronic health conditions. I specialize in Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS), hypermobility-related disorders, chronic pain, fatigue, autonomic dysfunction, mast cell activation, hormonal imbalance, metabolic dysfunction, and inflammatory conditions. What makes my work deeply personal is that I also live with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and a chronic condition. I understand firsthand the confusion, dismissal, and frustration that so many people with EDS experience—being told symptoms are “in your head,” struggling with pain that doesn’t follow a straight line, and feeling unsure how to move, eat, supplement, live, or even rest safely in your own body. While there is currently no known cure for EDS , I firmly believe—and have seen repeatedly—that with the right guidance, education, and individualized support , people with EDS can stay stronger, more mobile, clearer-headed, and significantly more comfortable in daily life. My Approach I work from a root-cause, whole-body perspective , recognizing that EDS does not exist in isolation. Joint instability, pain, and injury are often compounded by nervous system dysregulation, nutrient deficiencies, infections, viral overloads, mitochondrial dysfunction, hormonal shifts, gut and immune imbalance, and chronic inflammation. My approach focuses on: Personalized, holistic nutrition counseling to support connective tissue, vascular integrity, and metabolic health Functional lab testing to identify deficiencies, inflammation, infections, viral overloads, autonomic stress, mast cell activity, and metabolic dysfunction Strategic supplementation to support collagen integrity, muscle strength, energy production, inflammation, and recovery Nervous system support to reduce pain amplification, fatigue, and dysautonomia symptoms Lifestyle and movement guidance tailored specifically for hypermobile bodies—so patients know what to do and what to avoid Education and empowerment, so patients feel confident navigating daily life, flare-ups, and long-term planning I collaborate with medical providers when appropriate and help patients understand how to safely integrate both conventional and holistic strategies—without overwhelm or guesswork. Why Patients With EDS Choose to Work With Me People seek me out because they want: A practitioner who truly understands EDS from the inside out Clear guidance instead of vague reassurance Help connecting the dots between pain, fatigue, hormones, infection, viral load, digestion, inflammation, and mobility Support that is realistic, compassionate, and sustainable for long-term living Someone who listens, believes them, respects them, and helps them regain trust in their body Living with EDS requires ongoing support, adaptability, and informed decision-making. My role is to help patients feel less lost, less alone, and more empowered—so they can live fully, stay active in the ways that are right for them, and protect their health over the long term.
