About Dr. Brooke
Dr. Brooke is the founder and creator of Functional Sobriety, a program that is transforming alcohol-use through nutrition and wellness.
"I want you to understand the biochemistry of why we drink -- the internal systems and processes happening in our body that play a role in how and why we drink."
─ From Dr. Brooke's new book, How to Eat to Change How You Drink
Brooke Scheller, DCN, CNS is a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition, author, and the founder of Functional Sobriety, a nutrition-based program for alcohol reduction.
After finding freedom from alcohol in 2021, Dr. Brooke took her experience in sobriety and applied her expertise in nutrition and functional medicine to help others change their relationship with alcohol. After working with executives, celebrities, and other successful clients, she recognized a glaring gap in the wellness space: overconsumption of alcohol. Her approach results in improved brain health, mood, energy, focus, gut health and hormone balance.
Her launch of Functional Sobriety led to the development of her online community, the Alcohol-Free Longevity Lab and several online programs with members across the globe. As a motivational speaker, Dr. Brooke helps to spread the word about functional nutrition, alcohol-free wellness and the power of sobriety.
Dr. Brooke’s new book, How to Eat to Change How You Drink, is now available to order here.
