MY STORY: I grew up in south Boston (Marshfield) Massachusetts until I was 18 and went on to go to Virigina Tech University (Blacksburg, VA) - Go Hokies! I studied for 5 years to get my accreditation to become a Dietitian. In that time, I also worked as a Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor, served as the President of the Student Dietetics + Nutrition Club, was a Sorority member of Alpha Phi, and also served many other jobs around town (nutrition counseling, bartending, teaching yoga, working at the farmers market). Between semesters of school, I would either work various jobs in the summer but also did a study abroad one summer in Italy and France related to nutrition abroad, I worked at a medical facility in Uganda Africa, and I also went to Seattle to complete my 200 Hour Yoga Cert. In 2013, after graduating with a major in Dietetics as well as Exercise and Health Promotion, I moved to Chicago to do my 9 month internship at Ingalls Memorial Hospital. After completing my internship, I passed my boards and became a Registered Dietitian in 2014! From there, I went on to work with Joe Cross, film producer, wellness celebrity and most well-known for his first film, Fat Sick and Nearly Dead. I worked as Joe's personal nutritionist and Executive Assistant traveling around the USA and around the world internationally for his 2nd film tour as well as his 2nd book tour - it was amazing and I am so grateful for that year! I still work with Joe's company, Reboot With Joe in doing their Guided Reboots! In 2015, I met a charmer, Dan Niehaus, skiing up in Vermont... 6 months later he got a job in Cincinnati, OH and so I decided to stop working for Joe and moved to Cincinnati with Dan. Prior to moving to Cincinnati in the 1 month between leaving working with Joe, I traveled to India for a 5-week yoga program receiving an additional 200 hour training in Vinyasa and Hatha. Now, here in Cincinnati, Dan proposed and we will be getting married in September 2017. Since moving to Cincinnati, I have started my private practice, Kristen DeAngelis Wellness. I also work at TriHealth kenwood womens center - seeing patients at an outpatient center and TriHealth Pavilion teaching weight management classes and cooking workshops. In Cincinnati, I also teach yoga at The Yoga Bar, I am the dietitian at Mission 5 Fitness and I work with Scripps digital company called SimpeMeals in doing some contract work in developing meal plans. I also still work with Reboot With Joe guiding Guided Reboots as well as work for Shea Training, a student-athlete sports training facility in Boston where I do their nutrition programming and social media. Overall, I love love love what I do and I am always aiming to help support those that are looking for ways to improve their lives whether it be improved nutrition, increased self-awareness, or just feeling better overall through a holistic approach. I hope to spread the word of good nutrition and the other important facets that incorporate into a healthy mind, body and spirit.

Ariel came to me stuck. She’d already worked with multiple providers/angles/protocols and done “everything”, and still struggling for her low hormones, amenorrhea, infertility, and thyroid plus goals around body composition that felt out of reach.

We started where we always start: regulating the nervous system, a modified detox and flush (she’d done that work before, so we adjusted it), carb pulsing, and eventually feast-fast work for autophagy benefits. We supported her thyroid protocol and started seeing real, dramatic shifts. But underneath the labs and the supplements and the strategy, the deeper work was mindset — her self-talk, her belief systems. For a while we met weekly instead of biweekly, because she needed that high-touch support to really get there.

Then it started clicking. Her body composition, her digestion, her energy and vitality — all in the best place they’d been in years. It took some time but YES Her period came back. Her cycle and ovulation finally turned on. Her hormones turned back on!!!

And the work she came here for …. she got PREGNANT 😭💗

She’s now well into her 2nd trimester, feeling amazing, and expecting this December.

I am so proud of the work Ariel has done, and SO honored to have walked this road with her. I know this testimonial is long, but it’s there because so many of you need to hear it.

Ariel Bell (not Arlie) could not be more honored to support you in this journey ♥️♥️♥️

My baby turned 1 this weekend - and through all the moving and doing - I asked myself a few reflective questions on our drive back from the cape (once the kids knocked out and I could hear my thoughts 😂. And honestly it really surprised me how much I kind of forgot how much had happened in this year since she came earth side ❤️

I knew I would be emotional about HER.

What I didn’t expect was how emotional I’d feel thinking about what she brought out in me.

The woman who walked into the hospital a year ago is not the same woman sitting here today.

This year has been filled with some of the most joyful moment.

And truthfully, some of the absolute hardest.

I’ve been deeply in love with my family AND completely overstimulated.

I’ve wanted to soak up every second AND desperately wanted 20 minutes where no one touched me. 😂

I’ve felt incredibly grateful AND completely exhausted.

I’ve made massive shifts in my career. My definition of success. My capacity. My priorities. How I want to mother. How I want to work. How I actually want my DAYS to feel.

And maybe that’s what I’m realizing most.

I thought motherhood might pull me away from myself. And while it challenges this daily.

When I really reflect on this - it’s bringing out more honesty about who I actually am.

What matters.

What doesn’t.

What I’m willing to carry.

And what I’m finally ready to put down. What I want more of. And HOW I want that to look and feel and BE.

I’m still figuring so much of it out.

But man… there is so much more lightness here.

Happy 1st birthday my Rey Rey girl. I’ll continue to share our birthing day with you each year my love. Thank you Georgia Mae for being the best big sister and helping mama so much through all this. And my husband who I could never do this without.

What a big year 💗

Don’t worry, we’ll take it from here 🫡 🤦‍♀️

Honestly. My client’s husband joined our call last week to review his labs- they’re trying to get pregnant. He goes “my doctor said fruit is bad. He said I should cut out all fruit” I had another who had polyps 10 years ago and thought she could never have raspberries again because it would get “stuck” and another woman in perimenopause told to just “eat less and move more” (someone who literally does ALL the things).

I’m sorry docs. But you don’t have any medical training in nutrition & honestly this advice is doing far more harm than good in many cases.

Drink the full fat. Fruit and antioxidants are good (have it with protein/fat). And ya, ya I do believe we’re in a toxic AF world and our soil is not the best for the nutrients we think we’re getting so yes, I do believe supplements are incredibly helpful.

so if you’re looking for more than a eat, this not that hand out from the 90s or you’re just not getting the detail personalized approach you need… Find a new provider.

“Everything looks normal” doesn’t always mean we’ve looked at everything… and honestly, I would question that word normal….

When I’m reviewing a fertility case, I’m not only asking whether someone technically falls within a lab range.

I’m asking:

→ What does her iron + ferritin look like?
→ Have we looked beyond TSH at thyroid function + antibodies?
→ What’s happening with blood sugar + insulin?
→ Are there signs of inflammation or autoimmunity?
→ Is she actually absorbing the nutrients she’s taking?
→ What does her gut health look like?
→ Are we investigating male factor just as thoroughly?

And depending on her history—PCOS, endometriosis, recurrent loss, failed implantation, irregular cycles—the questions may go even deeper.

This isn’t about ordering every test under the sun.

It’s about asking better questions when the basic workup doesn’t explain the whole story.

If you’ve been told everything is “normal” but you still don’t have answers, save this.

Follow for more functional fertility + hormone education. 🤍

If you’ve been TTC for 6–12+ months and keep hearing “everything looks normal,” there’s another system I want you thinking about:

Your immune system.

Pregnancy requires incredibly coordinated immune signaling. Your body needs to defend YOU while creating the right environment for implantation, immune tolerance + a healthy pregnancy.

And this is where fertility gets interesting:

👉 ENDOMETRIOSIS isn’t simply painful periods. It’s a chronic inflammatory disease involving altered immune signaling—and some women have surprisingly few symptoms.

👉 HASHIMOTO’S: Thyroid antibodies can be present even when TSH looks “normal.” This matters before conception AND during pregnancy, when thyroid demands change - GET TPO & TGABs checked!

👉 PCOS isn’t an autoimmune disease, but metabolic dysfunction + inflammatory signaling are often part of the picture—and can influence fertility and pregnancy health.

👉 AUTOIMMUNITY: ANA or thyroid antibodies don’t automatically explain infertility. But alongside symptoms + history, they may be clues worth investigating further. Calculate your SII/SIRI to assess low grade systemic inflammation that might be getting missed (and point to autoimmune - like issues 👀

👉And don’t forget the GUT.

Your microbiome, intestinal barrier + immune system are constantly communicating—which is one reason gut health can matter in the larger fertility picture.

When fertility labs look “normal,” I’m thinking beyond ovulation:
→ CBC immune patterns
→ ANA + thyroid antibodies
→ hs-CRP
→ Vitamin D
→ Metabolic + gut health
→ Signs of PCOS or endometriosis

No single marker explains infertility. We’re looking for patterns across systems that were never functioning independently in the first place.

And for my IVF ladies: implantation involves the immune system too—but more immune testing isn’t automatically better. An appropriate, evidence-based workup matters.
“Unexplained” doesn’t mean there’s definitely a hidden immune problem.

It means we don’t have the explanation yet.

Your labs aren’t “normal” or “abnormal.” They’re a story, nuances, trends, it’s necessary to read the FULL depth in how it relates to YOU and most women only ever get read the headline or a short call from the nurse “everything looks good”…. While you silently say to yourself “WTF 😩

I see this constantly: a patient hands me a lab report that her doctor called “fine,” and there’s a piece of the picture nobody explained. Not because anyone withheld it — most providers just don’t have the 15 minutes it takes to walk through what AMH vs. FSH actually means, or why day-21 progesterone is the wrong test for a 32-day cycle, or that a “normal” TSH doesn’t rule out autoimmune thyroid activity.
