The Experienced Functional Nutritionist behind Health Transformations

about

From clinical beginnings to Fortune 500 companies and into your kitchen

Hello, I am Diana Davis, MEd, RDN, LDN, CFSP. I am a 30+ year veteran, board certified in clinical nutrition, with a Masters in Counseling. I studied under Jon Kabat-Zinn in mindful meditation and completed post graduate work in functional medicine at the Institute of Functional Medicine and Kharazzian Institute’s post graduate work in Gastrointestinal disorders. I use my 30+ years of experience to support those needing disease management as well as support business and corporations to grow a wellness culture into their employees lives thus driving health care cost down.

My nutrition career started in 1988, working side-by-side with Hematologists & Oncologists at Ochsner Cancer Institute, involving thousands of hours of acute patient oncology care and breast cancer research. I transitioned to specializing in HIV of the gastrointestinal track and observed how using targeted nutrition therapy changed my clients to live more productive lives even while living with this life threatening disease. Word got out locally through the NO-AIDS task force, and before I knew it, I was educating health care practitioners and those living with HIV across the globe.

While working with critically ill clients and speaking throughout the US and Canada, word spread, and Chevron Petroleum Technology Company and other fortune 500 companies sought me out for their corporate wellness programming. Thus Health Transformations was born. I've now worked with thousands of individuals and many organizations spanning from the West Coast to the Gulf Coast. I hope soon, I will have the privilege of creating a health transformation with you.

Academically, I'll never stop learning

Empowerment

My passion for applying 21st century nutrition and lifestyle medicine and witness people achieve a better state of health and resilience fuels my academic drive. After becoming board certified as a clinical registered dietitian-nutritionist, I continued to push the edge of my academic training and take deep dives studying functional nutrition medicine under nutrition thought-leaders (i.e., Linus Pauling, Ph.D., Jeffrey Bland, Ph.D., Buck Levin Ph.D., RD, Leo Galland, MD, Mark Houston, MD, Datis Kharrazian, Ph.D., DHSc) while studying mind-body work from thought-leaders such as Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D., Saki Santorelli, EdD, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., Virginia Satir, Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, Ph.D., and Caroline Myss.

I am trained in mindfulness meditation and have a master's degree in Educational Counseling. The result? My professional modus operandi involves a blend of 21st-century nutrition science, culinary genomic medicine, and mind-body work… a coaching platform for healing your mind, body, and spirit.

I go far beyond the teachings of a prudent lifestyle, but rather, I incorporate functional lab testing, nutrigenetics, nutrigenomics, precision nutrition therapies, mindfulness training, and evidence-based lifestyle medicine, which brings you to a new way of eating, a new way of thinking and a new way of taking care of YOU for improved health. So the question is: Can you live with a body and mind that doesn't degenerate like your peers, that feel more alive each year? Probably so, and with great pleasure!
