Meet Jay I am a speaker and nutritionist. I was an Education Specialist with two hospitals in Ventura County. I have a Health Science background as well as special certifications to teach DEEP (Diabetes Empowerment Education Program) and CDSMP (Chronic Disease Self Management Program), now Healthier Living. I volunteer with Ventura County Public Health where I have assisted with events, screenings, and taught nutrition education for after school programs. I work with local and international health care professionals to bring health empowerment to as many people as we can. Health is my passion. I am regularly dismayed by the powerlessness I feel from people with respect to their health. We are told over and over things like genetics, chronic diseases, and decline due to aging are all inevitable and unavoidable. Yes, we do get older, but things that are typically seen as an inevitable part of aging, like high blood pressure, may be prevented or even reversed by making healthier choices. One day several years ago I went to my doctor with an unrelated issue and discovered that I had stroke level blood pressure. I was 35. The worst part was that I thought I ate pretty healthy. I hear that all the time. “I eat pretty healthy.” Those exact words. Well, when I started to do proper research. When I finally tuned out all of the latest “information” in the media, that is when I discovered the truth.  Let me help you eat your way to your best YOU!

I am a registered Dietitian & Nutritionist who specializes in plant-based nutrition and vegan lifestyles. My journey into plant-based nutrition began shortly after having my first child. I now have three healthy plant-based children and my passion is helping you to succeed on your own journey towards a plant-based diet. After my five years of study at university, I was confused about some of the foods I was recommending to my patients so I began researching about animal products. I was stunned by what I found. After years of furthering education in the field of plant-based nutrition, I am 100% confident that whole foods plant-based eating is the optimal way to eat for disease prevention, treatment and for general health and well-being. I look forward to helping you on your journey towards a healthier future.

Niki Davis, MD is a “rocket scientist” turned physician. She is board certified in both family medicine and lifestyle medicine.  At age 13, she started removing animal products from her diet because she didn’t feel it was healthy. Once in college, she obtained bachelor and master degrees in mechanical engineering and worked on the space shuttle program for several years. However, instead of rockets on her mind, she was constantly thinking about health and nutrition – helping her own family members improve their health and their lives by switching to a plant based lifestyle. She eventually found her way back to her passion after leaving her engineering career to apply for medical school. She graduated from the University of Utah School of Medicine in 2017 and completed a Family Medicine residency program in 2020. While in residency, in addition to serving as Wellness Chief, she helped form Plant Based Montana, an advocacy group with the mission to educate healthcare providers and the general public about the benefits of a plant based diet. She has had the pleasure of speaking at plant based events around the country and has been lucky enough to train with phenomenal mentors such as Dr. John McDougall, Dr. Michael Klaper, Dr. Anthony Lim, and Dr. Alan Goldhamer, among others. She has a certificate in plant based nutrition from the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies through eCornell and is certified in The Starch Solution. She feels extremely grateful to be doing what she loves every day – helping people live their best lives. In addition to being available for TeleHealth appointments, Dr. Davis will also be running plant based wellness retreats in locations around the world, once safe to do so.

It’s nice to meet you on our journey to clean eating and a healthier lifestyle. My health journey started over a decade ago, after the birth of my first son. At that time, I was constantly suffering from headaches, fatigue, migraines, lack of energy, chronic anemia, and a general feeling that I wasn’t in my best health. At that time, a friend of mine introduced me to a whole-food, plant-based diet. Feeling desperate from having too much coffee and supplements but never really feeling energized, both my husband and I decided to give his recommendations a try. After three weeks, we started to feel better and much more energized. We even lost some weight in the process. I became much more focused and could maintain better concentration throughout my Engineering undergraduate studies. This positive experience led us to decide to stick to this diet, which we are still practicing today. I consider this one of the best life decisions I have ever made. Feeling the effects in my body, I became an advocate for healthy nutrition. My biology background, and my service in the army as  a medic, means I am comfortable digging into the details and learning more about these topics.  For over a decade now, I eagerly study and expand my knowledge about healthy nutrition, and earned Master of Science in Nutrition (MScN) at National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM). These days I’m offering nutrition counseling, classes, coaching, and recipes to promote healthier diet and lifestyle at my Fabulous Healing practice. In addition, as a faculty adjunct member at NUNM, I’m teaching an immersive course about the Mediterranean Diet and the Israeli Culinary Culture. TAKING THE NEXT STEP I know first-hand how hard and challenging a lifestyle and diet transition can be—socially, emotionally— and most of all discovering out what works best for you and what does not. It takes a lot of practice, time, knowledge and support! After working with many patients from all walks of life, I understand everyone who goes through the transition into a healthier lifestyle and may need to give up their favorite foods. I’ve been there, and I know exactly how it feels craving for something you are unable to eat. Of course, these aren’t the only struggles. But that’s why I’m here to support you with each challenge that you may face. As a nutritionist, I acknowledge that each and every one of us is unique—and so are our nutritional needs. For this reason, I tailor and coach each meal program individually for my clients in order to meet their dietary needs and goal. In addition, I am a supportive, consistent accountability partner for you! This is a unique and an essential part of my services. I regularly provide the support network you’ll need and encourage you to contact me for solutions and answers outside of our scheduled appointments, so please reach out for more information! I look forward to be part of your health journey!

I help clients make diet and lifestyles changes ultilizing mindfull eating techniques. My services are evidenced based and patient centered while focused on helping you get in touch with your hunger and fullness cues and learning about how thought processes influence your cravings, binges, and gut health.

I am a registered dietitian, American College of Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner and a Life/Weight Coach. I first learned about plant based medicine 19 years ago during my practicum at the Pritikin Longevity Center and have been passionate about the role food has in our health ever since, though I haven’t always been as spot on with my nutrition as I am today.
 
I can remember as a mom of young kids feeling mom-like and not in a good way. I was bursting out of my jeans. But worse than that, I felt too big for my skin. One day I noticed that my seatbelt was cutting into my stomach. That was a first. I remember thinking I’m a dietitian, I know better. I felt ashamed because I was preaching healthy eating, but I wasn’t always eating healthy. I was on the “one is never enough” plan and it showed on my body. I remember the phone call from my doctor’s office–bad labs. I thought, what am I doing? I know better. Then the shame fell away and I had a new feeling, conviction. I decided I was going to take care of myself and I started following my E.A.S.E. plan (which now I share with my clients).
E: eat greens
A: add fiber and color
S: subtract processed foods
E: exercise your mind and body
I felt healthier. No longer exhausted. I didn’t shove my words down with food anymore. I said what I was thinking instead of snacking. Now I weigh 102 lbs. My weight has stayed the same for over 10 years. Jeans slide on with no effort (except those double zeros!).  I no longer fear the seatbelt. Now I help others do the same.
