In her own words
“Health is not the absence of disease — it is the presence of vitality. I’ve spent 26 years asking the questions conventional medicine rarely asks: what is this body depleted of, what is driving the dysfunction, and what does it need to heal? The answers almost always come back to nutrition and herbal medicine.”— Heidi Moretti, MS, RD, CLT · Authority Magazine, 2026
Short bio for press use
Heidi Moretti, MS, RD, CLT is a functional medicine registered dietitian with over 26 years of clinical experience. She specializes in gut health, autoimmune conditions, hormonal balance, and root-cause nutrition therapy. Raised on a farm in rural Montana, her early life instilled a deep curiosity about the natural world — a quality she has brought to every patient encounter since.
Heidi is the founder of The Healthy RD, a trusted evidence-based nutrition resource, and ALIGN Wellness, her functional medicine practice. She holds a Master of Science in nutrition, is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RD), and is a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT). She has completed advanced training with The Institute of Functional Medicine.
She is the author of three books — Gut Fix, Period Fix, and Cortisol Fix (Amazon bestseller in Endocrinology) — and has been cited or featured in over 50 publications including Food Network, Men’s Health, Livestrong, Bustle, Parade, and peer-reviewed journals including BMC Cardiovascular Disorders.
Heidi believes that nutrition is the most underutilized tool in modern medicine, and that true healing begins when practitioners ask not just what symptoms a patient has, but what their body actually needs to thrive.
