Services
Have you been struggling to lose weight? Do fad diets and extreme exercise routines not seem to work for you? These diets and routines are designed to appeal to a wide audience - but not necessarily to work for a large audience. Every body is different and has different needs; what works for one person may not work for another.
Never in human history have we been exposed to so many environmental toxins. The air we breathe and the chemicals in our food, water, houses and workplaces-as well as the various products we put on our bodies-all expose us to environmental toxins. Low-level bioaccumulation from multiple sources increases our toxic load, which may have the potential to affect our health.
Wendy analyzes your body's chemical, anatomical, and physiological profile. Based on data derived from a thorough history and laboratory studies, a nutrition program is implemented that is detailed and specific for each individual. The concept of a specific nutrition plan is based on the scientific fact that all human beings are genetically different.
Nutritional genetics examines and analyzes how nutrients impact our genes, how our genes impact reactions to specific nutrients, and why our bodies may be struggling with detoxing or metabolizing. So many answers to health found here! Vitamin deficiencies and imbalances may produce a range of health issues, including fatigue, mood changes, digestive problems, and others.
The test results will show weaknesses in DNA(we inherit this from our parents) which allows me to make specific recommendations with diet, supplementation and lifestyle modifications that create the best chemistry possible for your body so as to have balance. FACT #1: Genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose.

I seeked nutrition works after getting some bad news from my doctor. I’m 5’8” and was weighing in at 204lbs. Not super heavy, but enough to cause health issues for my body size. After seeking nutrition works of Las Vegas, my whole outlook on the scenario changed. I was helped with finding the correct nutrition to lose the weight. Was guided to supplements that made me feel better, more energy, and focus. She listened to how my body was reacting and tweaking the list along the way. After a little over 2 months, I have dropped 24lbs. I feel so much healthier. I wake up and don’t need coffee

I reached out to Wendy about 4 months ago when I was experiencing *excruciating* arthritis-like symptoms in my hands and arms. I knew if I went to a doctor they'd just write me a prescription and send me on my way, so I needed to fix this myself. I've seen healing miracles worked through diet alone, so I wanted to start there. I've known Wendy for years and knew she had a deep understanding of nutrition, so I reached out to her. Best decision I ever made. A few diet, supplement, and lifestyle changes and I am a new person. Not only are my arthritis symptoms gone, but so is my anxiety, back pain

Wendy came into my world in 2017. Wendy has been a huge part in my success, more today as she assisted me with my most recent diagnosis of Rheumatism arthritis.
I was born with Cerebral palsy on my left side. Wendy has messaged me, through my muscle spasms, showed me exercises on how to relax the muscles. Especially during Covid!!
Most recently she took her time with me and went over my eating habits, I cleaned out my refrigerator, cutting sugar, carbohydrates to name a few. My pain level has decreased, I am feeling better and look forward to a healthier lifestyle. Thank you Wendy !

If you’re sick of feeling bloated, fatigued, overwhelmed and simply not enjoying life because of your health, I strongly advise you work with Wendy. Her extensive knowledge regarding nutrition, supplements and vitamins has changed my entire life, and I can’t even describe how amazing I feel because of her recommendations, guidance and wisdom. Thank you Wendy!!!!

She’s well rounded, massage therapist ( that’s how met) since she’s become my health Detective. I’m in the process of shedding the menopause / COVID Weight . I’ve notice my energy has increased from recommendations . Regarding supplements.
Also we’ve enjoyed exploring Downtown Las Vegas street art .

Wendy is the best! I've been going to see her the last year or so and she has taken the time to help get to the root causes of why you aren't feeling well and helps you formulate a plan to get you feeling better. She also gave my wife a prenatal massage and my wife was very thankful for that. If you are looking for nutrition support or just need some guidance on what you can do to get feeling healthy again I very much recommend Wendy!

I am very pleased to have met Wendy, I regret not finding her before. Prior to scheduling my appointment, she was quick to respond and was helpful in providing information and answering questions about her provided service.
After my first consultation, I found her to be an open professional, which I was very comfortable opening up to about my personal health problems. She is a walking book FULL of information and truly cares about creating a genuine relationship between her clients and helping solve their problems. For every health problem or issue I had, she had the explanation and solution.

After months of researching nutritionists here in the Las Vegas Valley. I decided to move forward with Wendy from Nutrition Works of Las Vegas.
I had the pleasure of meeting with Wendy this summer when I contacted her for nutrition counseling. After meeting her we just hit it off, her views on health and nutrition are in line with exactly what I had pictured for my health and wellness journey.
Weight loss has always been a focus of mine, but this time it was more than that. I knew what I wanted, I just needed a little help in the right direction. I wanted to no only focus on my overall health
