What sets us apart from almost all other nutrition programs is that here at St. Petersburg Nutrition we are a team of Registered Dietitian's (RD) who are licensed to practice in the state of Florida. We are the food and nutrition experts that only practice evidence based nutrition and can help improve medical diagnosis and conditions though nutrition therapy.

It can be hard knowing exactly where to start and what changes will have the most impact. In office, telephonic and/or secure HIPPA compliant video coaching platform available if you are on the go or may live a distance away.
Metabolism is the process of converting food (calories) into energy. The efficiency with which your body does this is referred to as your metabolic rate. Many factors affect a person's metabolic rate: weight, age, body composition, hormone levels, and gender making it a highly unique number.
Understanding your body's unique metabolic rate will allow your Dietitian to customize your weight loss, weight gain, body composition or maintenance program more precisely to meet your goals.It can screen for a slowed metabolism that may explain frustrated attempts to lose weight in the past. It can reveal changes in your metabolism during the weight loss process that can help trouble shoot a frustrating plateau.

I'll work with you to create a highly tailored nutrition prescription to reach your health and lifestyle goals. Your customized nutrition prescription can then be used to create a perfect meal plan for you! One of the biggest hurdles to eating healthy is the time and effort we need to put into meal planning, grocery shopping and cooking in order to be successful.
Medicare may cover Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) ONLY if you have diabetes and/or kidney disease, AND your doctor refers you for this service (see referral form to download below).

Whether you want to lose weight or just get smarter about how you eat, I highly recommend working with Jeff.
I started working with him in December and largely due to his insights and expertise, not only did I lose a few pounds - but my cholesterol and triglycerides improved significantly during that time.
Jeff provides a great mix of education, analytics, detailed meal planning and motivation. He’s well prepared before each session and dedicates the time necessary to make sure all my questions are answered.
If you are looking for a practical, sustainable approach to healthy eating that doesn’t

Working with Jeff was great! I was struggling with losing the last of my pregnancy weight. Jeff was very patient, encouraging and informative on not only how to lose the weight, but taught me how food and the body work together. It was a great experience and I was able to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight! What I appreciated most is that the process was not fad dieting, but very strategic and attainable strategies that equipped me with tools/facts I can use for the rest of my life.

I am so happy that I finally decided to make the phone call to St. Petersburg nutrition! After years of following crazy diet fads, I have finally learned how to lose weight in a healthy way. Jeff was amazing to work with. He is a very knowledgeable registered dietician who will motivate you through your journey. Jeff will teach you how to eat a balanced diet, and will teach you how doing so will affect your weight loss. For anyone motivated by numbers, I am down 18 pounds in about 3 months. If you are hesitant, just make the phone call! You will be forever grateful that you did. Thanks Jeff, you

Jeff really helped me make some necessary nutrition changes that are sustainable for me in the long run. He was able to give me great food recommendations on what to add and subtract from my diet, and helped me learn a lot more about the harmful ingredients manufacturers put into foods that may have been contributing to some of the ailments I was experiencing. I also learned about my metabolism, and what I was actually burning versus what I thought I was burning. Jeff also gave me awesome food alternatives that were healthier versions of foods I was eating so I didn’t have to eliminate or feel

Jeff is amazing. No other way to start this, I thought I understand how to eat healthy but working with Jeff these past 4 months has completely revamped my understanding of nutrition and it’s interactions with the body. Jeff is a motivating, educational, and excellent teacher. I’ve learned so much, shed the weight I needed to, leaned up and just hit a PR for my 5Ks. Jeff will stick with you and encourage. Do yourself a favor and invest in your health with Jeff as your coach. Best decision I made. I can’t thank him enough.

Can't say enough good things about this place! Their team is extremely professional and kind. Jeff not only walked me through healthier relationships with food, he encouraged and pushed me to accomplish sustainable fitness goals with training sessions and tips. Jeff opened my eyes to delicious and healthy foods that I will continue to eat for the rest of my life. But Jeff isn't just a dedicated dietitian, he is an overall good guy and fantastic energy to be around — especially when embarking on a wellness journey! Thanks for everything!

Brenda is seriously the best at what she does. She has a very realistic approach to nutrition and she prioritizes balance over restriction. The recommendations & guidance she has given me have been easy to sustain and incorporate into my daily life. She makes personalized suggestions for your lifestyle and has a individualized approach depending on your concerns and priorities. Brenda will tell you everything you need to know, she will hold you accountable, and she will be there to motivate you!
One thing I have to point out is that Brenda really knows the science behind what she’s talking about

Brenda is phenomenal in that she is very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and works hard to personalize nutrition goals. She helped my husband, who was diagnosed with diabetes, lose weight without feeling like he was on a diet. She taught the both us about proper nutrition (as there is so much misinformation on the internet) without us feeling overwhelmed. She is sincere and passionate about her work. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their health! She has truly been life-changing for both my husband and I. We look forward to continuing working with her!

Working with Brenda has been nothing short of stellar. I was stuck in a weight loss rut where I was working out/eating healthy but unable to lose weight. After a metabolic test and determining macros in our first session, I finally broke my plateau. When I got set up with the meal plans, I saw even more progress. Brenda is incredibly encouraging and willing to work with what specifically works for YOU. Not to mention she is warm, easy to work with and talk to.
