Many common chronic conditions have a primary nutritional and/or toxin imbalance as a root cause. When lifestyle changes (and if necessary nutritional supplementation) are incorporated, our clients experience a significant recovery with chronic health conditions.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach to diet and nutritional guidance, holistic nutrition and health counseling understands metabolism is as unique as your fingerprint and varies at different times in one’s life. We tailor lifestyle programs to fit your body’s needs and never encourage “fad diets” as long-term success is better achieved when permanent healthy habits are incorporated into your regular routine. It’s not about counting calories or “points,” it’s about eating nutrient dense, naturally colorful foods that are higher quality.
The proteins, fats, and carbohydrates that you eat are fuel for your physical engine. The vitamins and minerals are its spark plugs. You need both high quality fuel and the ability to “fire on all cylinders” in order to achieve optimal health. An automobile can run with misfiring spark plugs, but for how long and how well? How fast and efficiently can it respond to an emergency demand for more power? The stress of living in our fast-paced world demands that kind of emergency power for our bodies on a daily basis.
Think of other nutrients as protecting agents. Just as your car has additives and devices that protect the body, engine, and driver, nutrients serve to protect your heart, brain, and other critical organs. Just as a car’s gauges warn the driver of potential problems, your body has certain chemical indicators that can alert you to potential problems. Early warnings can help you make diet and lifestyle changes that may both extend your life and enhance your quality of life.

What Our Clients Are Saying
“Dr. Davis is great!
He is interested in solving the root cause of my issues, not just prescribing drugs and sending me on my way.
He always spends over an hour with me going over every aspect of my health.
Such a contrast to my last cardiologist that never spent more than 15 minutes with me, prescribing drugs that negatively affected me, never looking for the cause of my problems, and only doing what the insurance company would pay for.”
Norma Rosenberg
“I recently took my family member to see Dr. Davis due to the research that I have doing on heart disease on the internet. Dr. Davis went beyond all my expectations! It is very difficult to find a integrative functional medicine cardiologist who also knows the conventional approach as Dr. Davis. He was very compassionate and did not make you feel like he was in a hurry. He listened very intently to everything we had to say. He definitely is not your conventional cardiologist that has a revolving door of prescribing statins to their patients. The best thing about Dr. Davis was his holistic approach to heart issues. He considers in all the different contingencies involved in heart disease. I highly recommend him to anyone who really wants to get to the root cause of their heart disease. His staff was also amazing!”
A JS
“Dr. Cris Davis was previously a top rated cardiovascular surgeon. He now brings that skill base into his current wellness practice which is especially important to me as a patient of his with cardiac disease. His practice is phenomenal and my health has improved significantly! I’ve experienced a tremendous decrease in my weight as well. He’s a genius at this and all I can say is please don’t hesitate to make an investment in yourself towards longevity!”
Frank Griffith Jr.
“I’m an ex pharmacist based in Australia and came across Dr Chris Davis in a magazine publication.I was looking for a cardiologist who could help my dad in London with a more holistic approach to minimise the number of medications but maximise his health through exercise, healthy lifestyle and any preventive actions he could take. My dad also had a lot heavy legs and hip pain. He had been to multiple different hospital appointments in London with no real positive outcomes. He was low on energy and at 77 starting to think he is getting old! Dr Chris made recommendations to my dads general practitioner and offered specific healthcare advice. 3 months later my dad has lots of energy, is walking 10 times the
distance he could walk before and is virtually pain free. Seeing my dad happy and like a little kid again is priceless. Thank you so much.”
Hament Chavda
“In February I decided to seek out a functional doctor for numerous issues I have had, from thyroid issues, to sleep issues, anxiety, HRT, to just name a few. From day one the office staff was super helpful in gathering all of my medical records. My first visit with Dr. Davis lasted close to two hours. He listened, discussed, reviewed and ordered labs to gather details that my previous doctors had not looked at. Upon completion of my labs, we had another two hour visit to complete an action plan/next steps. The changes he made and the supplements he prescribed have already started working and I am feeling so much better. Dr. Davis is caring, thorough, and attentive to my health care needs. The office staff is also outstanding.”
Kelly Dancer
“I believe it’s essential for every patient to have a doctor like Dr. Davis when it comes to their wellness journey- whichever path that may be! He truly is a whole different breed in the best way possible. What he has created and is continuing to expand in his clinic is the future of medicine. His knowledge is unmatchable. He’s driven and motivated to find the root cause, not just suppress your symptoms which is key! I cannot say enough good things about him and his staff! They are always personable and very on top of things. If you’re looking for the gold standard of a doctor, staff, testing, diagnosing, an individualized treatment plan, etc. Look no further, you just found it! I feel blessed to have found a doctor that I truly trust and will continue to be a loyal client of his for many years to come!”

Nutrition Counseling FAQs
Florida is home to sunny weather and plenty of things to do. To ensure you live your life to the fullest, you will want to feel your best. Achieving a balanced diet is part of a healthy lifestyle and feeling your best. With so much information available, it can be confusing to know where to start or what your diet should really consist of. When it comes to wellness, personalized plans are designed to deliver exactly what your body needs to support your lifestyle. Nutritional counseling falls into the category of healthcare. While we are advised on how to live a healthy life, healthcare is generally a rather reactive approach. In most cases, we do not seek help until we have symptoms. But what if we turned that approach around and took a proactive approach? What if we analyzed what we are prone to and how our lifestyle impacts our health? At Reveal Vitality, we do just that. Located in Sarasota, Florida, our practice offers leading nutritional counseling services in-office and virtually.
All of our services are centered around a proactive and personalized approach. We embrace the needs of every patient, offering them a compassionate set of ears to share information with. Every individual is unique as is their life. Work with us to receive care that can help you look and feel your best, without prescription drugs and other harsh treatments. What we put into our bodies can impact us in so many ways. Individuals in search of nutrition counseling designed just for them should work with our team of experts. Here’s why.
What Is Nutritional Counseling?
There are different approaches to nutritional counseling in Sarasota. The underlying theme with them all is the desire to improve health through diet and exercise. Whether your goal is to lose weight, simply live a healthier life, prevent chronic conditions, or similar, nutritional counseling can offer the support you need.
Traditionally, if you have a chronic condition or disease, you would get diagnosed, and nutritional counseling would likely follow as part of the treatment plan. At Reveal Vitality, we work to get ahead and prevent conditions or diseases from developing. We find ways to help patients live a healthier and happier life all the while looking and feeling their best. With testing and lifestyle programs, many common chronic conditions and diseases can be prevented. Our patients can receive natural weight loss and sustainable nutritional plans.
What Is The Difference Between A Nutritionist And A Dietitian?
Dieticians and nutritionists share a specialty in nutritional sciences and focus on helping people make healthy decisions to improve overall wellness and or manage underlying medical conditions. However, there are some differences to note. Dieticians are held to a higher standard and must go through more academic studies and training to practice. Additionally, they must pass a national credentialing exam to earn the title of Registered Dietician (RD) or Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN). Since Registered Dietitians are credentialed professionals, they can have more authority to provide nutritional advice. A Registered Dietitian can do everything a nutritionist can do as well as provide medical nutritional therapy and counseling and develop nutrition plans. They can even help diagnose and treat certain illnesses. Dietitians often work in partnership with mental health professionals to support patients with eating disorders. When choosing between a dietician and nutritionist, consider your needs and vision for treatment.
Who Needs Nutrition Counseling?
Nutrition counseling can positively impact the lives of many. If you have the desire to improve your overall health and learn more about nutrition, pursue nutrition counseling. Nutrition counseling can be especially beneficial for individuals struggling with eating disorders, chronic health conditions, and weight management issues.
Is Nutrition Counseling Effective?
As with anything, nutrition counseling is as effective as you make it. The provider, as well as the patient, must work hand-in-hand to optimize results. Choosing to commit to nutrition counseling will require more than showing up to appointments to achieve maximum results. If you consciously apply the recommendations received during nutrition counseling, you can enjoy a healthier lifestyle, improved digestion, and more control over conditions or diseases. You can also learn a new connection with your body as you look inward and analyze how you feel on a regular basis.
What Is A Holistic Nutritionist?
Holistic nutritionists take a natural approach to improving patients’ health and wellness. At Reveal Vitality, we offer holistic nutrition counseling. We start treatment fresh for every patient we see, assessing your needs, history, and DNA blueprint to make personalized recommendations. Our nutrition counseling understands your metabolism and works to tailor programs that fit your lifestyle. We focus on sustainable and long-term habits that can help you live a nutrient-filled and healthy lifestyle.
Who Is The Best Person To Give Nutrition Advice?
The world of nutrition is huge. With social media and the internet at our fingertips, influence is everywhere. Some nutrition advice is opinion-based, so keep this in mind as you sift through information. The best type of professional to seek nutrition advice from is a Registered Dietician, as they are qualified to provide personalized advice. What your body needs might be different from someone else, as is the life you live on a day-to-day basis. Work with our team of experts at Reveal Vitality for nutrition counseling tailored to your needs.
Is A Holistic Nutritionist The Same As A Nutritionist?
While they are similar and can have the same education and certifications, they may take different approaches to treatment. A holistic nutritionist will focus on educating patients and drilling down on lifestyle changes so that patients can understand how to control their health better. Holistic nutritionists take a natural approach to health while helping patients identify diet and mental health factors that may be impacting overall mental and physical health.
What Is The Difference Between A Health Coach And A Holistic Nutritionist?
While a health coach and a holistic nutritionist may share similarities, and both should understand your life on a personal level to make sustainable recommendations, they are different. A health coach goes outside the scope of diet, exercise, and health. Health coaches can take a whole-bod approach. Their goal is to change your life, not just improve your health. However, some holistic nutritionists take the time and attention to get to know patients on a personal level. With a greater understanding of the true causes and challenges they are facing, they can help them find sustainable solutions. Our team of experts at Reveal Vitality value every patient and relationship, with compassionate care at the core of our values. We are committed to providing an experience that’s personalized for every patient.
What Can I Expect From Nutritional Counseling?
Nutritional counseling can far exceed your expectations, especially when you work with our team of experts at Reveal Vitality. Working toward a healthier version of yourself can boost confidence while encouraging you to live life more while feeling better. At Reveal Vitality, we take a revolutionary and concierge approach to holistic nutrition. Patients can expect to learn about their total health. With personalized education and recommendations, patients can take control of their health. Share your goals or needs and expectations with us and we will go to work with you.
Chronic conditions often have a primary nutritional and/or toxin imbalance as a root cause. We can help patients who simply want to live a healthier lifestyle or patients with chronic conditions.
What Is An Example Of Nutrition Counseling?
An example of nutrition counseling is a patient with diabetes who needs to make diet and lifestyle changes to maintain their health. Through nutrition counseling, you can receive personalized advice while you learn about ways to manage your health as you navigate your life effectively.
If you are unsure what services best suit you, start with a comprehensive health assessment at Reveal Vitality.
What Are The Steps Involved In A Nutrition Counseling Session?
Your nutrition counseling journey usually starts with an assessment. Truly the assessment phase of nutrition counseling is ongoing as you are constantly changing, and hopefully in a positive direction. To follow the assessment phase is diagnosis and intervention. Once you’ve achieved stability, you can continue nutrition counseling for monitoring and evaluation.
While approaches to nutrition health can vary, the first step is to find a professional you are confident working with. Contact Reveal Vitality today for nutritional counseling services to start your newfound nutritional journey.
How does nutrition impact your health?
We are made of almost 30 trillion cells doing millions of chemical reactions daily. Our body is made of hundreds of nutrients and many of these are missing in our highly processed, pesticide infested food supply. Every cell in your body is composed of and depends on nutrients from your food, and everything you eat has a direct impact on your immediate and future health. If the nutrients are missing in our diets, the cells start to starve and eventually will fail or not perform optimally.
Improper nutrition can also affect your weight and and strongly increases your risk of developing chronic diseases. Poor dietary habits increase your risk for:
- Obesity
- Chronic inflammation
- Mood disorders
- Heart disease
- Hypertension
- Type 2 diabetes
- Osteoporosis
- Cancer
- Cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease
Overeating, undereating, limiting food groups, and eating unhealthy foods can all be problematic. Make an appointment today to learn about proper nutritional and supplemental nutrients with help from your experts at Reveal Vitality.
Which nutrients are vital for health?
Our bodies need both macronutrients (fats, proteins and carbohydrates) and hundreds of micronutrients to operate at their peak performance.
Macronutrients
Food is composed mostly of carbohydrates, protein, and fats. We need a proper balance of all three to meet the demands of our bodies. Dietary requirements will vary by individual however at Reveal Vitality our team takes great care to determine your specific needs with a comprehensive health assessment.
Micronutrients
Vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and several nutrients are vital to our bodily systems and cells. Since food supply today is often lacking in many nutrients for many patients, most people will benefit from several supplements to make up for dietary deficiencies.
What nutritional therapies are offered?
The experts at Reveal Vitality emphasize integrative methods to improve your health, including nutritional therapy. They help you establish healthy eating habits and replenish inadequate stores of nutrients, vitamins, and minerals to restore your optimal health.
The practitioners at the center offer the following services to improve your nutrition profile and prevent disease:
- Dietary and lifestyle counseling
- Herbal and nutritional supplementation
- Intravenous (IV) and Injectable (IM) therapies
- Detoxification therapy
- Nutrigenomic testing
These services are based on scientific advances in nutritional medicine and the ancient premise that food is our primary form of medicine.
Which nutritional therapies are right for me?
Your provider will perform a thorough health assessment and panel of tests to evaluate your nutrition profile. Our team can perform DEXA body composition, the ideal way to check your lean body tissue versus fat mass. In proper weight loss, it is important to only lose fat mass and not muscle mass. Our providers will help you decide which nutritional therapies and exercises are right for you based on the results of those assessments and other factors like:
- Your goals
- Level of activity
- Allergies and intolerances
- Food preferences
- Your level of participation
- Medical conditions
Your practitioner discusses the advantages and drawbacks of each protocol and encourages you to take an active role in treatment. If you’re interested in learning more about how to improve your health through nutrition, contact us online or over the phone to set up a consultation.
