Nutrition in Recovery is dedicated to the promotion of both physical and nutritional wellness as primary components of recovery from behavioral health challenges. We are a team of specialized registered dietitian nutritionists who work with challenging cases but also help many people who do not identify as being "in recovery."
We believe in the functional medicine approach which considers the entire dimension of wellness. Our work is "trauma-informed" as well as culturally sensitive. We talk about nutrition in a way that most people have never heard before. Our emphasis goes way beyond calories and macro-nutrients. We help people explore the profound impact that food has on the brain, the gut, and the endocrine system (hormones).

I had an amazing experience with David Wiss of Nutrition in Recovery
David taught me so much with my journey of food and nutrition
David offered me the tools to take care of my body, the proper foods to eat specific to medical conditions(cholesterol down 51 points) I was experiencing and supplements that have changed my life
Davis is highly educated, knowledgeable, patient and passionate about his life’s work…
I know this is an old cliché saying but this is the honest truth…if I can do it anyone can do it
The RR app is what encouraged me to be accountable, stay consistent and understand

I've been having digestion issues for over a decade and decided to seek some answers. I am so happy with my decision to go with David Wiss. He asked thoughtful questions that would have never occurred to me. He takes the time to listen, not rush through like my experience with many other health practitioners. He maintains a safe space where you truly feel how much he cares about helping his patients. That alone makes me highly recommend David to anyone seeking to take control of their health.

I'm not kidding when I say that Nutrition in Recovery completely changed my life. I have been struggling with depression for years and nothing seemed to work. I really thought that this was something I was going to have to deal with forever but that was until I was referred to this company. The staff here is so kind and their number one priority is helping you recover. They helped me think of food in a completely new way and since I started coming to them my moods have really stabilized. I will always be so grateful to them. I highly recommend them.

If you're looking for a nutritionist, look no further. David Wiss is above and beyond and way ahead of the game. His knowledge, insight, and clarity keep me coming back. I told my friends he's a rocket scientist of his industry. He looks at all the data through today's modern technology and science, including DNA, and then gives you the map and the game plan to execute through proper nutrition and supplements. I'm feeling better than I have in some years thanks to David Wiss.

I have worked with many nutritionists over the years, and will say that the work I was able to do with David was life changing and extraordinary. Going beyond meal planning and a trajectory of weight-loss, David helped me challenge many of my old belief systems by educating me with the latest research and straight up scientific facts. David’s approach is warm and empathic yet remains direct and focused. I highly recommend David if you are ready to shift your ideas around food, nutrition and body image- and begin to live at peace with yourself.

Nutrition in Recovery and David Wiss helped me achieve something which I thought was impossible for me. I have suffered from serious GERD/acid reflux disease for the better part of 10 years and got on omeprazole multiple times daily to manage my symptoms. Multiple doctors have told me over the years that it was not a good medication to be on long term, but other medications didn’t manage my symptoms and no method of getting off of it ever worked due to intense flare ups and unmanageable discomfort.
With David’s help, I was able to taper off the omeprazole while implementing some supplements

I had been struggling with an eating disorder for a very long time. I would binge eat and then really restrict my calories to an unsafe level afterwards. It was a vicious cycle and I knew that I needed help. I turned to Nutrition in Recovery and it is one of the best decisions I could have made for myself. They have completely changed the way I think about food and I have made such amazing progress with their help. I highly recommend this company if you’re struggling with an eating disorder.

Working with David Wiss was one of the most powerful experiences of my life concerning physical health. It has been about a year now since we first met and I can sit here and tell you about the weight loss I've had (which has been significant) but that is not what I got from David. What I received was much much greater and more profound. What a I truly got from David was rehabilitation from a decades long unhealthy relationship with food and body image.
David showed me how to change my thinking and relationship to how I eat and how I view my body. He taught me invaluable things about how and what

Nutrition plays a huge role in your life from your well being, to how you feel physically and how comfortable you are in your own skin. I've had a life long struggle in my relationship with food and David really helped in putting an end to that. I learned how certain foods affect your brain chemistry and gut bacteria while also gaining an appreciation for and accepting my body. It's not about following a certain diet or eliminating food groups but trusting your body and making the right choices based on what your body is telling you it needs. David has great energy, makes you feel comfortable and

With a full-time job, it is very difficult to prioritize my eating and nutrition. I have always ate at restaurants and never learned how to prepare my own food. David made it easy for me to begin planning my snacks and before I knew it, I was trying one of his smoothie recipes. David spent a session with me going aisle-to-aisle in the grocery store and helping me feel more confident in the supermarket and in the kitchen. My blood sugar is finally stable and I have lost 15 lbs. My doctor was very happy with my new numbers!
