Since then I have remained a client to check-in regularly on my overall health and supplement regimen. I even remained a client of the office when I moved across the state to California, because I trust their supplement and product offerings. Whether you need short or long term help, or simply want to utilize the other awesome offering (detox foot baths, microcurrent, etc.) you will be sure to be satisfied with your experience. The staff at NWHS is very kind and helpful. Being in this office always brings joy to my day, even when it is virtual and I appreciate all of the love, support and knowledge I have received from this business.

This is a business. I went to a lecture from the owner and decided to give it a try because they…read morewere offering us 50% off their usual consultation. It was still really expensive but I have been struggling with my health for such a long time I thought it would be worth it. I was wrong. I filled out quizzes, food diaries and gathered all relevant doctor information for my first visit. I was told that my quiz which took about a half an hour to complete was never received because of their site and the woman barely looked at my notes and food journal that I was asked to do. It was not specialized to me, she repeated the same information that I heard at the lecture and only offered to give me actual advice for an additional counseling session which cost more money. I figured I had gone this far so I did it and she gave me a printed out pre-made food plan that once again did not accommodate my vegetarian diet. The whole thing was a sales pitch and I feel so ripped off. Complete waste of time and money

Short Yelp Review: Lauren Dear Saved My Gut…read more Long Yelp Review: I moved from India to the United States 12 years ago - my family got over it, but my gut didn't. What was once my happy, thriving and healthy GI tract turned miserable, agonized and sensitive. I developed multiple sensitivities to various types of food and my digestion seemed to limp to catch up with all the self-restrictive dietary changes and modifications. I love good, pure, healthy food - and my misbehaving GI tract was a major burden, affecting my quality of life. For 12 years, I made-do - making dietary tweaks here and there, but a couple of months ago, I just hit a wall and decided to get professional help. Lauren came highly recommended by folks who knew me personally. She introduced me to the FODMAP diet - nay, the FODMAP way-of-life! In 2 weeks, following the FODMAPs list of acceptable food choices, my symptoms of bloating, gassiness, and general gut malaise has vastly improved. There still are certain tweaks I will need to make down the road, but as of now - I am not petrified of the consequences of eating. I just need to choose what types of healthy food I can eat, that will be tolerated. Working with Lauren is a pleasure - she's curious, attentive to your woes, is non-judgmental, and shows genuine care and empathy. She actually listens without prejudice or condescension. If you have GI troubles, go to Lauren! With practices in Brookline and in Boston (Downtown Crossing), she's very accessible via all modes of transportation. Thank you for saving my gut, Lauren!

I was in the search for a nutritionist when I found Hub Healthy. I feel like I have always been…read morepretty good at taking care of my health through eating and exercise but never was able to sustain the positive changes and results I wanted. Tava was so wonderful and friendly to work with which made the process easy. She would meet with me regularly and hold me accountable for my goals. She was so knowledgeable and helped me to make the necessary tweaks I needed in taking care of my health in a sustainable way. Because of Hub Healthy, I now feel that I am empowered to take care of my health. I choose how I eat as a form of self-care, I have grown to love loading up my plate on vegetables, and have made the necessary shifts to feel really good about how I'm taking care of my body. I feel so grateful for Tava's support and guidance, she's amazing!

I discovered Hub Healthy from an article in a magazine and was compelled to look into HH a little…read moremore. I'd been looking for some more education about my health and ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle without depriving myself of the things that I enjoy - I come from an Indian family where everything centers around the next great meal and I didn't want to lose that! That said, I couldn't deal with the restrictive colorful containers from the 21 day fix, logging everything into an app was annoying and probably inaccurate 95% of the time (because who has time to put in every. single. ingredient. and what if the dish wasn't simple - then it's that much harder to track portions and ingredients). I knew myself enough to know that I ate the right things (usually), but definitely had some difficulties with eating when I was stressed, portions and I do love the wine. Enter Tava. It was so great meeting her! Super down-to-earth, never lectured or made me feel judged. She understood where I was with my health and fitness goals, my medical history and how my life - personal and professional- play into my habits. Instead of being superstrict, she helped me to see what options I could create for myself - for example, How could I add more vegetables to each meal - even something like black bean pasta makes a difference! She also helped me to recognize patterns in my habits and create little challenges that were actually high impact. Did I really need that afternoon coffee and chocolate/cookie? Even if that was my only dessert of the day? Probably not. It's not the worst, but it didn't give me the energy I needed to last me through the end of the day and into dinner (where i would have been throwing myself into dinner). It was just so nice to be able to recognize the emotion I was feeling behind whatever I ate (and how much), make some good fixes, figure out ways to have healthier versions of whatever I craved and just be more mindful. The awareness and education were huge for my success and I am so appreciative of all of Tava's support.

Marci is a fabulous nutritionist! She was recommended to me by CEDC after I finished an intensive…read moreoutpatient program there. She explains things really well, so that a lay person like myself can understand them. She does a good job of combining biology (like how the body digests food, etc) with food counseling (like whether you should be on a meal plan or not). I found Marci to be really honest, smart, and easy to talk to. If you're looking for a nutritionist who can help you with emotional eating, Marci's your gal!

Marci is one of the best things that has ever happened to me.. for real! She is an amazing person…read morewho has been an inspiration to me and a very helpful nutritionist. I have felt very comfortable explaining everything in a truthful manner to her, and she is not judgmental, which is very helpful when dealing with difficult issues. She truly understands what I am going through, and she always has concrete advice to give to help me get back or stay on track. I find her to be very organized and on top of things. She has a lot of worksheets and book suggestions that have been quite helpful. Also, her ideas for nutritious and delicious foods are great. I have learned many helpful tips and rules from her that have helped me to adjust during a period of having eating disordered behaviors that had been ingrained in my life for many years, to evolving toward the opposite end of the spectrum where I have learned to honor my hunger and eat what I'd like in a reasonable manner and to not get too hung up if I have negative experiences. When you go to Marci, be prepared to work on yourself and your eating and health in ways you may not have delved into this part of your life, and know you'll come out feeling more healthful and free to enjoy life more to the fullest without having to focus on eating issues that may have taken over your life in the past. I went to her after going to the Cambridge Eating Disorder Center and she has been a very big part of my recovery. I am very proud of myself to have gotten my good health under control, and it worked with a combination of help from Marci as well as with my therapist and psychiatrist who have all helped me to make a complete turn around. With this, I thank people like Marci and I hope that others who are looking for a great nutritionist find Marci. She is probably the best nutritionist to work with in Harvard Square, Cambridge, and one of the best in the Boston area. Go to her website www.marciRD.com - it is a very nice looking and well put together website that accurately reflects how she works and what she does, and you can contact her from there. Good luck with your recovery or with supporting someone you know who is in recovery, and know you're in good hands if you end up working with Marci! (she does accept insurances also so you just pay a co-pay as you go).
