Background

If you are someone who has found nutrition information to be confusing or hard to implement, you’re in the right place.

Do you have:

• Achy joints that limit your activity

• Frustration with good blood sugar control

• Foods cravings as you follow a healthy, diabetes or gluten-free diet

• Worries about healthy aging – fitness and the way you look

• Obsessive thoughts about what you can and can't have

• Bloating and gas

• Confusion about lowering your cholesterol or triglycerides

• Stress related to food choices

I am a registered dietitian, certified nutritionist, and certified diabetes educator. I started my career in research at Columbia University, while I was earning my master's degree. My award-winning book, Optimize Your Immune system: Create Health & Resilience with a Kitchen Pharmacy is one example of how I drill down the science into simple action steps, so you know exactly what to eat at your next delicious meal.

When you work with me you can expect simple customized guidelines for making choices that address your specific needs – including lifestyle. I will lead you in baby steps (or faster, if you’re the all-in type), to have satisfying meals that reset your metabolism.

I use a holistic approach and handouts that will empower you to achieve sustainable and long-term well-being. You will receive ongoing support, regular check-ins, and my full commitment to reaching your goals. I’m here to support you through every step.

Let's start your first action steps today by booking an appointment!

Approach

"Does this sound familiar? Feel like you’ve been on a mystery mission to solve your health issues? You’ve spoken to the practitioners, received some basic advice, conflicting advice even, and now you’re left wondering what you can eat to take control of your health………. You’re concerned about preventive health, but it seems like you’re the only one who cares about how you will look and feel in 10 years. Your gut tells you there’s more you can do but you just can’t get a straight answer."

Jane completely changed how I think about food. She’s patient, knowledgeable, and explains things in a way that actually makes sense.
