I cannot say enough good things about working with Julie! I went for help with weight loss and…read moresleep, but got so much more. Julie helped me look at the reasons behind my issues and gave me solutions that addressed the core of the problem rather than the symptoms. I highly recommend her for any difficulty you might be going through in life.

A thank you note is appropriate for my review of Julie Scott Nutrition. Dear Julie, I have known…read moreyou for 6 years now. I had never been to a nutritionist before but I knew I had to meet you, after reading about you and all your many positive reviews on the web. Thank you for all your help and support in my own life's health journey... as well as helping me deal with the chronic condition I live with. First, thank you for taking the time to get to know me. You have a wonderful way of listening and assessing and getting at the root of issues in a warm and open way. And now I know about you too! You are one intelligent, knowledgeable, nutritionist! But you are more than that! What I learned first from you is nothing is fixed immediately. Although sometimes it is! You helped me see that, and you taught me, by your example, of perseverance, patience and knowledge, - to not give up. And if I was giving up well- you were NOT!. You are resolute in finding solutions if it's a new issue, or even if it's an old issue - and we try again in new ways. This is key for me living healthfully and comfortably with you, Julie Scott, by my side. I always feel you are ready to listen, figure things out together, ready to share your thoughts, and ready to search for more information to help me. My most recent appointment was a check in and a review of my protocols for every day living vs flare ups, vs tweaks of additional things to add and delete in my overall health plan. Thank you! We all have different health challenges we live with and we go to our doctors, dentists, etc.,...but you, Julie, you are the professional person in my life that helps me put it all together. I'm lucky I found you! Thank you!

My wife and I have been working with Jason for years and we truly cannot say enough good things…read moreabout him. He has everything you want in a trainer: professionalism; unparalleled expertise on all things health and wellness related; and a kind, friendly approach that will appeal to anyone. He knows just how hard to push you so you are always advancing, but not so much that you risk injuries, or become too intimidated to continue. He is open-minded, creative, and collaborative. For people who are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant, know that he helped train my wife throughout her pregnancy and afterwards. Without a doubt, he is the reason that my wife was able to follow her own birth plan-the doctor was skeptical that she would be able to deliver without a C-section given the size of our baby and because she had spent 2 days in labor before beginning to push. But Jason had helped prepare her-both her core and her stamina-and she was able to deliver our kid safely in under 2 hours. The doctor called her the 'best pusher' she's ever seen-and that is because of Jason. In other words, he is perfect. Jason is also just a funny, smart, and interesting guy to be around-we have enjoyed not just working with him, but becoming his friend. We trust him with our life, and you will, too.

I've been training with Jason Agrella since Sept 2022 and he is the absolute best…read more In the past 1.5 years, I've seen huge strides in my strength (including doubling my deadlift PR) and mobility, but perhaps what I appreciate most is the knowledge that I've gained since working with Jason. It has completely changed the way I train for the better! Working with Jason has really levelled up my understanding of how to train for functional performance, strength and mobility that will serve me in the long-run - how to move better, breathwork and recovery, integrating mobility, and the mind & body connection. I'm sure anyone who has trained with Jason will know that he is always learning, experimenting, and exploring new methods in his own training, and he will often share new insights and techniques with his clients. He draws a lot from his own practice and reflection, and I think that's why he has a really good grasp of how certain movement patterns work with your body, and where the gaps are. Not to mention I don't know what I would've done without his guidance when I strained my hip through running. He prescribed several drills that not only resolved the pain very quickly, but I've now come out of it with better body mechanics and alignment. I'm really grateful to have found Jason and I would highly recommend him!

I found Shanti on my own over 10 years ago, then was referred to her again years later by a…read morephysician. Both times, I hesitated because of the cost -- I told myself I was already paying for insurance, so why pay out of pocket for something extra? That decision cost me more than money. I've been dealing with serious health issues since 2018, and I didn't see real progress in my treatment until I finally integrated Shanti into my care team. After a few years working with her, I'm in the best health I can remember in years -- and honestly, the turnaround still shocks me. Shanti has been the cornerstone connecting the dots across a complicated health picture: major weight and puffiness fluctuations, food reactions and allergies, MCAS/histamine issues, mold, migraines, headaches, and joint pain -- all while juggling multiple doctors and endless investigative work. She's been there on the days I could barely move or eat, in real pain and down, and she's helped me build a fuller care team rather than trying to be everything herself. She got me OFF the endless cycle of adding supplements and protocols, and taught me to simplify and actually listen to my body. She's patient, she remembers every detail of my history so I never feel like a number, and she adapts to what's realistic for me rather than forcing one rigid method or diet. We've also gone deeper than the physical -- into the inner work of trauma, stress, and old patterns -- and worked through how my health connects to my marriage, family, work, and travel. I'm so grateful for my work with Shanti. It has been life changing. I wouldn't be able to propel into my next steps in life without the rigor and resilience of our time together.

Working with Shanti changed my life. I had been suffering for years with stomach issues and was…read morehaving issues exercising because my body was aching a lot. After altering my diet and adding some supplements, I feel like a new person. My stomach rarely hurts and I can hike again! I feel so much better and am so grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Shanti. She really focused on my issues and sorted out how to help. My quality of life has greatly improved.

I lost 55 lbs over the course of a year with support from JumpstartMD and a GLP-1. The body…read morecomposition analysis was a game changer--it showed exactly how much of my weight was actual fat, which kept me focused on the right goals. I also appreciated having medical supervision while taking the medication. Today, I'm 10 lbs lighter than I was during a phase when I was working out five days a week. The difference is how sustainable this feels. A couple of pro tips from my experience: 1. Reuse what worked for you in the past. If you've ever successfully lost weight with a particular diet plan, bring it back. The GLP-1 takes the "white knuckling" out of dieting and makes it much easier to eat the way you were supposed to anyway -lean protein, vegetables, simple meals. 2. Slow and steady truly works. Be happy with one pound a week--or even maintaining during harder weeks. My entire 55-lb loss happened over 52 weeks. Consistency beats intensity. 3. Side effects were minor. I had a few small headaches and one or two nights of poor sleep after the weekly injection. Occasionally unhealthy food made me feel off, but that was rare and honestly a helpful deterrent. With healthy eating (which the medication makes far easier), it wasn't a problem. I meal-planned for about 10 months, and now I just naturally eat that way. Being at a normal, healthy weight again is worth every minor bump along the way. I have also encouraged 4 of my friends to do this as well and they are all having similar success. If it doesn't work for you, simply stop taking it but definitely try it with the support from the team at JumpstartMD Mt. View!

I am long overdue in writing this review. I would recommend Sabrina to anyone who wants to get…read morehealthy in an organic way! I had worked with Sabrina in the past and after years of struggling and as I have gotten older, I knew I had to reach out to her. I have always been active and I workout every day so that was not an issue for me. But I was still slowly and steadily gaining weight. I have tried every meal plan and/or diet you can think of spending hundreds of dollars a week on food and hours in the kitchen meal prepping, and nothing worked long term. I reached out to Sabrina in September and started working with her a week or so after my initial call. She made a few tweaks to my diet and my exercise routine, and the weight began to come off. We worked together until the middle of January. During our time working together I lost 20lbs. OVER. THE. HOLIDAYS. I am a social person, and food is always a part of that, so the holidays are especially challenging. If I can lose 20lbs over the holidays, anyone can. Since finishing my last session with Sabrina I have continued to lose weight. It doesn't come off as fast because I am not super focused on it, but that is what I love. It has felt easy to just keep doing what I am doing. The changes she made to my diet fit easily into my lifestyle. I finally feel like I am not on a diet, I have just changed the way I eat, and I am spending less money on food and spending less time on meal prepping than I was before working with her. I don't get on the scale a lot these days as I am more focused on feeling good than what the scale says, but every time I do, I am down a few more pounds.

Over the last 15 years I have spent tens of thousands of dollars on doctors, naturopaths,…read morefunctional nutritionists, integrative medicine physicians, acupuncturists, and even an energy healer--along with countless supplements and herbs--hoping to regain my energy and health. Yet, despite all this, I saw very little improvement. Recently, I realized that I had lost several pounds, and it became clear that a major part of the problem was that I simply wasn't eating enough. I'd been vegetarian for most of my life, and even after adding meat, I struggled because of my love for animals. On top of that, my demanding job often had me so focused that I would forget to eat entirely. I felt untethered to my life--weak, off-balance, and sometimes even fearful of driving or going out. I knew I needed someone to tell me exactly what to eat and how much, someone I could work with personally. I was so overwhelmed by conflicting information online--one source said this diet was essential, another said it was dangerous--that I thought all I needed was a clear plan. What I didn't realize was that I needed someone to help me identify why I was so paralyzed around food and how to address it. When I found Sabrina, I was drawn not only to her nutrition expertise but also her training as a Life Coach. After our first meeting, I knew I was in the right hands. The 14 weeks I spent with Sabrina were the best investment I've ever made in my health. Our sessions went far beyond food--she helped me uncover why I was avoiding eating, why I couldn't gain weight or strength despite eating very healthy, and how to break those patterns. She took the time to learn what I actually like to eat, then provided a personalized meal library to guide me with meals and snacks, which made staying on track so much easier. Her Life Coach approach was invaluable! She is non-judgmental, supportive, and gently kept me on track, adjusting strategies when needed. All of my calls with her were grounding and soothing, especially amid my chaotic workdays. Thanks to Sabrina, I now understand the habits that were stealing my health, and I'm actively reversing them. I've started putting weight back on, feel stronger and more confident in my daily life, and no longer have anxiety around food. If you've been struggling with nutrition, habits, or energy, Sabrina can guide you with knowledge, support, and understanding. You deserve to feel strong, confident, and healthy--don't wait to reach out to her!

In my case, I have an eating disorder, and she's been able to carefully navigate my neuroticism over my eating behavior. Specifically, she's gotten me to feel safe, relaxing the death-grip insistence I had on drinking diet sodas and taking in way too many carbs, throughout my day. I drink water, almost exclusively now, and am happy to do so! I don't feel deprived or lacking anything "special". My carb intake has dramatically reduced as well. And as she learned that I feel better, the less gluten I consume, she's been able to help me, maintain a diet mostly free of gluten. With her guidance, I've turned into a perpetual label checker on foods. (You know, the "Nutritional Facts" label on packaged foods.) I am extremely grateful, and enjoy this process, which I used to scorn. She takes her work seriously and professionally, taking notes and recording my progress, while drawing from a huge reserve of data, product knowledge and articles, helpful to my situation. She knows of articles for almost every situation! I can't recommend her strongly enough! Try her! You will be delighted! :)

I'm here ALIVE and THRIVING today because of Chen. When the doctors couldn't figure out what was…read moregoing on with my body & made me even sicker with rounds and rounds of medications, I was ready to give up. But luckily, I then found Chen. She took one look at me and knew it was food related and said she would help me figure it out. And that she did! I started working with Chen about 4 years ago. She is one of the few people I trust with advising me on how to care for my body and my autoimmune disease. I've even seen doctors in centers that purely focus on my autoimmune disease and they weren't able to answer all the questions that Chen has for me. Chen has supported me through every single step of the way on my health journey: - Finding my diagnosis (testing & interpretation), - Developing a nutrition & supplement plan, - Periodic consultations to adjust my plan while my body went through various cycles till it stabilized, - Educating me along the way how to listen to and understand the signs my body was giving me (knowledge/skills I will carry the rest of my life) - Tips on different foods/recipes to try and tips for food prep - As well as supporting through the emotional aspects of the journey (i can't tell you how many times i cried and she always listened, encouraged me to really let it out and supported me) Additionally, I've use her supplements, protein powders and protein bars for the last 4 years. I can't recommend them enough, especially for those with very sensitive bodies like me. She sources and produces her products specifically to be allergen free. The new addition to her line, the protein bars, are SO tasty that I almost don't want to tell you that. Most recently I've tried the energy reading/work with her. This for me is something I was excited to try as Chen and I had been trying to find the last little bit to get me to 100%. The results of the readings are always very spot on and a great data point to help show some other factors going on (food, environment, and emotional). I have to admit this was a very new experience for me and I wasn't sure what to expect, but seeing the reading and results has been mind-blowing. And on top of all this Chen herself is an ABSOLUTE JOY. She instantly makes you feel safe and supported the moment you see or talk to her. She will push you and call you out if needed. And she will also celebrate your wins and learnings with you along the way. I can't thank Chen enough. I didn't think it was possible to not only get my healthy body back but to be stronger than I ever was. I'm so happy to be alive today thanks to her and to get to go after my dreams knowing I have her support.

Her educational pamphlets and consultations taught me so much about the importance of food and giving my body what it needs nutrient wise. If you are having gut issues or just feel like something is up I recommend reaching out to Chen, I guarantee she has some precious advice on how to feel better.

One year ago, I wasn't a regular gym-goer and was out-of-shape. On a friend's recommendation, I looked for personal trainers online. I liked Rok's profile and so, I set up a consultation with him. I decided to train with him after that because of his genuine and positive nature, and because he understood my goals and made a clear and practical plan to achieve them. His fitness plan, which included both personal sessions and self-training via his app, took care of my lower back and hamstring injuries. He knew how to switch things up to keep workouts interesting and challenging, and his sense of humor and motivational attitude made working out fun. His customized diet plan took into account my Indian food habits. Taken together, I went from "skinny-with-a-belly" to "flat-and-fit", losing 30 lbs in the first four months! Thanks to Rok, I greatly improved my diet and exercise habits and, as a result, am keeping myself fit and happy. I'd highly recommend Rok to anyone looking to enhance their lifestyle!

I met Alene at the beginning of 2018 after going through a pretty rough medical condition that…read moreweakened my body, made me lose a scary amount of weight in a short amount of time and overall burnt me out pretty badly. I needed professional help to rebuild myself in a way that would help my body recover fast and well. I'm also a very athletic person, putting in over 15h of intense physical activity every week (Surf, Yoga) and was eager to get back to peak performance quickly. When my friends ask me whether seeing a nutritionist works for me and if I'm seeing the benefits from it, I say "Absolutely!" of course, but to explain to them why Alene's approach has been working for me, I tell them that Alene has brought structure, meaning and a lot more science to the way I eat, which helps me understand what to eat, when and in which quantities depending on the types of activities I do. I now understand the toolset (food) at my disposal much better. Alene has helped me adapt my diet not just through that medical condition, but also through two nasty bone fractures and a head injury, and brought small tweaks to my diet to help my body recover faster. In nearly 8 months, I'm in the best shape I've ever been. For my demanding surfing activity, she's been instrumental in helping me stay in the water longer and push myself harder by concocting a fueling plan for me that to this days has been allowing me to remain at peak performance for sessions that can be as long as 4h30-5h in tough ocean conditions. At the same time, a healthy lifestyle does not mean I am deprived of a lot of my favorite things: I still drink a glass of wine at dinner, I still drink beer moderately, I still drink cocktails at parties, I snack on some gummy bears often, I eat bread. None of these things are forbidden as long as they're done in moderation and are balanced with regular, consistent levels of physical activity. Last but not least, Alene uses an app to manage her clients, and she's super available to respond whenever you have a question. In my experience, she responds as fast as within minutes to a few hours. It's been a real convenience when in doubt about something you're about to eat and whether it is suited or not for a particular situation. For all of the above, I highly encourage you to hire her, you will not regret it!

It was a win-win all around and we definitely recommend Alene!
