Client Reviews

It was a pleasure to meet Jane, I wanted to meet her in person for our first appointment to get a better feeling of her and her approach to my issues and food. She was highly recommended and they were right! She is exactly what I wanted, helping me choose the best way of eating, getting the nutrients I need, and solving my medical issues by dietary adjustments, with necessary supplements.

Jane is simply amazing! I owe my return to normal to her. Being diagnosed with celiac I was suffering from extreme fatigue and GI discomfort despite of a gluten free diet. Jane patiently listened to every symptom I described and guided me accordingly. Within days, my blood work was back to normal! Just follow what she suggests and you will see a difference!

"Jane is amazing! She's super easy to work with and is really knowledgable. More importantly though, Jane tailors her approach to the individual. She makes good nutrition a lifestyle and something fun--not a chore. She's the first person that has been able to figure out what's been going on with my weight fluctuations. Not only have I been able to gain control of my weight loss, I've also been able to take control of other health issues as well. Her support goes a long way to making changes that create a healthier and happier you!"

I consulted Jane Schwartz, for my health/weight about two months ago. My biggest concern was how do I lose weight. Jane was very soft spoken and incredibly nice in explaining how to eat right and be fully satisfied. The overall consultations was a very relaxed environment, where I could express my concerns regarding my diet with no judgment because of how Schwartz gave advice with such comfort and reassurance. When I achieved my weight goal, I experienced a sense of overwhelming happiness. I would highly recommend anyone who is struggling to lose weight to consult Jane Schwartz.

"If you are looking for a nutritionist, look no further! Jane is the most incredible nutritionist I have ever worked with, ESPECIALLY if you have a history of eating disorders. I have tried calorie counting (and other diets) in the past, but none have worked with my lifestyle. Jane does not expect you to drastically change your lifestyle: she works WITH you to make small little changes that end up making a huge impact! She listens, provides thoughtful feedback, and is so incredibly caring. I cannot recommend her enough; since working with her (and still eating all of the things I like--I literally haven't cut out anything) I have been slowly dropping off unhealthy weight AND my blood pressure/heart rate have dropped into a healthy range. I have only been working with her for a couple months and I had to buy smaller pants!! This time, I know I will keep the weight off because these changes have been so simple that I can do them for the rest of my life (and still go out to get my fav Chipotle bowl once in a while!). If you are not used to cooking your meals, that might be a new change for you, but she offers so many meal prep options that you can organize your food such that you only cook a couple times a week. All of the recipes she has given me are absolutely delicious; even my partner loves them! Truly, if you are looking how to create a better, healthier lifestyle for yourself, Jane is your answer. I only wish I had met her sooner."

"I came to Jane for help reducing blood sugar levels without the medication increase that my doctor had prescribed. Jane is a warm and empathetic presence, and her dietary advice and supplement recommendations worked beautifully, significantly improving the results on my three-month blood test. I strongly recommend her!"

"Jane Schwartz was recommended from networking from my sister, a dietitian in another state. We needed someone who could address the underlying issues, not an ignorant medical model allopathic practitioner. At day one we got practical, actionable advice and were met with a mix of knowledge and humility, and great listening, as well as a focus on feelings and intuition rather than counting calories and a punitive approach. Thank you."

"Jane helped me to define realistic expectations for me and nutrition. I walked in with a million concerns and questions. I left with a simple plan that sets me up for success."

"Would highly recommend to anyone suffering from any sort of chronic symptoms. Unlike traditional MD's, Jane will use top-notch diagnostic tests (in my case this was a gluten-intolerance test and microbiome test) and use the results to formulate an individual, non-prescription plan to get you back to health. Personally, my experience with traditional MD's and specialists consisted of vague diagnoses and a long list of prescription drugs and antibiotics that were essentially nothing more than a giant band-aid. Instead of offering me yet another band-aid aimed at simply numbing symptoms, Jane worked with me to find the ROOT of my symptoms and helped me create a plan to ACTUALLY get better."

"Jane really helped me to make small, practical changes with significant impact. I must have tried every diet in the book, but couldn't get the unwanted weight off. I am a busy mom of 2 and work full-time, so I needed something easy to apply. I'm down 13 lbs and counting thanks to her guidance!"

"Jane Schwartz provided great insights into my somewhat out-of-the-ordinary (and fortunately, temporary) food issues. Her willingness to research information and think creatively made a huge difference in helping me get back on my feet. Jane is a terrific nutritionist and has the calming personality so important in any healer."

"I cannot say enough good things about Jane. I have been working with her to heal my gut after some complicated GI diagnoses. Not only is she more knowledgeable than most of the doctors I’ve seen over my lifetime, she is thorough and takes the time to get to know the whole picture. She has been incredibly flexible and accommodating with scheduling appointments and always responds to emails quickly. I highly recommend Jane and am grateful for her giving me hope to get my life back!"

"Jane evaluated my issues so thoroughly and then worked with me until I was fully well. She worked with my doctor’s treatment recommendation and used her expertise to add herbal treatment and supplements. These used together were the key to my full recovery. I can’t recommend Jane highly enough."

"Jane is AMAZING! She has helped my husband and myself take control of our eating and health. We both feel so much better and have learned that how we eat is a choice. The side benefit of weight loss has been nice also!"

"Jane Schwartz is most certainly a miracle worker! Within two visits and careful analysis of my diet and symptoms, Jane was able to come up with a food plan, along with nutritional supplements, that have helped to almost eradicate life long IBS symptoms that GI specialists have unsuccessfully treated me for. The support Jane has given to restore my GI health has been exceptional. In addition to follow up emails, she has provided suggestions for helpful food plans and links to delicious recipes! I knew for the moment that I consulted with Jane that she was a nutritionist/dietitian like no other. She truly wants to work with the GI problem that is causing the symptoms, rather than just treating the symptoms. Jane is personable, patient and a really good listener ! I felt so comfortable reaching out to her with questions or when I needed additional support! For once in my life, I am without daily stomach pain and other debilitating symptoms...thanks to Jane Schwartz."

"I went to see Jane on my doctor's advice to manage a high A1C score. My A1C had risen to 6.5% when I went to see her, and after 6 weeks it was down to 5.9%. Six weeks later it was down to 5.8%. Additionally, I lost more than 10 pounds in the process. Jane is extremely knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Never any pressure. She has given me clear advice that's been easy to adapt to my lifestyle. I'm never hungry and I feel more energetic than before. I highly recommend her without any reservations."

"My husband and I sought Jane’s expertise and guidance after years of struggling to lower his A1C due to diabetes. After our initial appointment with Jane we were both hooked. She evaluated my husband’s food diary and made suggested substitutions and provided us with healthy recipes. Each time we met with her she patiently answered our long list of questions and cheered us on for our “all in” attitudes. It gives me great pleasure to say that my husband’s A1C dropped two points, is now within a normal range and we’ve both lost a considerable amount of weight. Kudos to Jane for turning our lives around."

"Jane has played a key role in my recovery from and management of a chronic illness that greatly affected my GI tract. Having lost a significant amount of weight and finding myself at a loss for how to even go about eating properly during what will be a lengthy period of recovery, one of my doctors referred me to Jane and I am so glad that she did. While Jane is clearly knowledgeable about her field and is up to date on current research, it is her sincerity and compassion that stood out to me, especially at the start of our work together when I was really struggling. Jane's care for her clients comes through both in her office consults and follow up emails where she attaches helpful reminders, recipes and encouraging advice to get you through the tough days. She replies to your questions quickly and works with insurance to ease any issues in that area. I have seen marked improvement in less than two months that I never could have imagined possible over the past few years. I highly recommend Jane and I am thankful for all that she has done for me."

"Jane is so kind and professional. She LISTENS to you and caters a plan to your need. Thank you so much Jane!"

"I highly recommend Jane Schwartz! She has helped me navigate chronic digestive issues and is always advocating for SAFE and holistic options. She responds promptly to emails to guide her clients along the way of a lifestyle change. While doctors are often busy pushing pharmaceuticals, I feel GOOD knowing that Jane has my back as my holistic advocate!"

Jane was extremely knowledgable, easy to work with, and devoted to helping me get better, which I did! She worked with my insurance, met on Skype when I couldn't get to the office, was available for a quick question, and sent me useful information and ideas. The doctors I saw didn't have the depth of knowledge about or an understanding of the nuances of my condition, and I was feeling hopeless, in the dark about how to proceed. Jane's evidence-based expertise and encouragement led the way back to health. I'm grateful to have found her, and I highly recommend her.

I struggled for years with my weight. I tried every diet possible and nothing worked. I was tired of failing! THEN I had my first appointment with Jane. Jane made me understand that I was not depriving myself but rather nurturing myself in my new way of eating. Suddenly a "switch" went off in my head. Jane supported my journey with great recipes, wonderful advice and constantly nurtured me along the way. Since June I have lost 40lbs and feel better then I have in years. If you feel you can't succeed then I highly recommend calling Jane.

Jane has been instrumental this year in helping my adult autistic daughter achieve a healthy weight after several failed attempts to do so over the past five years. Working closely with my daughter's caregivers both at her home and at her workplace, Jane provided clear guidelines for meal prep, overall nutritional parameters and specific product recommendations. She also offered a wealth of delicious and easy to prepare recipes for meals and snacks that are tailored to my daughter's food preferences so that everyone in her life could "play the game" of feeding her successfully and enthusiastically. My daughter has lost 25 pounds over 7 months, without evident deprivation and while enjoying a wide variety of meals, snacks and treats. She has learned to appreciate and accept new foods and healthy variations of her old favorites. Jane always responded immediately and fully to multiple requests for further info, including detailed troubleshooting when weight loss stalled - with the very effective advice to cut exercise time but vary the intensity.

"After being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, I was so confused trying to navigate through which foods would be good (or bad) for the condition and wanted to do my best to make choices that would help promote better health all around. I am so thankful I found Jane! She has taught me so much in a short time and her guidance has made the changes seem doable, exciting and tasty :) She allowed me the opportunity to pick her brain with lots of questions and provided wonderful insight and knowledge. Over a short period of time, I have physically felt improvements and feel much more confident in making food choices. My mind and body thank her!"

“Jane is professional, engaging and enthusiastic. She provided worthwhile options to lose weight and eat healthy. Jane is willing to work with your lifestyle and eating habits to accomplish your goals."

“Jane's knowledge not just of healthy dietary issues but also of how some of them apply specifically to Parkinson’s patients was impressive. She handled frequent questions and occasional interruptions with a relaxed, casual style that suited our informal format perfectly.”

“Dear Jane, Bravo for your enthusiastic, informed and confident presentation on Sunday. Our members confirmed my opinion: interesting, valuable, and well presented. Thank you for taking the time to enrich us.”

“Jane consistently does outstanding presentations for the Community Education & Outreach programming at PHCS. She connects beautifully with all ages, and distills the complex world of nutrition into a fun and understandable format.”

“Jane is a class act. She delivers interesting nutrition topics that relate to the audience. Prior to any event, Jane gains information about who will be attending, room size, available technology, and what attendees are most interested in learning about. She is well organized and dependable. Clients routinely comment about how her presentation helped them change their way of eating and become more conscious of making better meal choices. I always know Jane will deliver a fabulous, motivating and educational presentation. She is intelligent, well spoken, and an engaging speaker!"

“I’m so very thrilled with what I learned during our first meeting – a game changer! I’m never hungry these days, and sugar doesn’t seem to be an issue. I’m addicted to the smoothies. It’s become a game to see how many veggies I can add to the fruit!"

“We had a wonderful and productive meeting to discuss how to help my husband get through chemo and radiation without too large a loss of weight. He has tolerated (his treatments) very well and lost only between 4 and 5 pounds, which the doctor thought was very good.”

“Since working with Jane, I have felt like a brand-new person. I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease a year ago, and until meeting with Jane, would never have known how much an impact food could have on my condition. Within a week (of meeting with Jane), I had more energy, was sleeping so much better, and my skin was feeling and looking healthier. Not to mention my pain that had been triggered on almost a daily basis was gone. I also lost 12 unwanted pounds in a month! I am so happy to have made this change, and I know it will be a permanent lifestyle adjustment!”

“No one has ever given me this direction before. Thank you, Jane, for your wonderful and caring support. You made such a difference in my thinking (and outlook) yesterday. I have taken to heart what you told me (especially the magnesium and warm lemon water). I’ve already looked over and printed your attachments. Wow … fabulous. Thank you so much. My husband, Harry, and I will definitely benefit from listening to and using as many of these ideas as possible. Again, thank you."

“Jane – even more good news. My hair and nails have begun to grow. My energy level is really good. It used to be that when I went shopping, I was good for an hour, but now I can go two hours. Also, my focus on projects and stamina are better than before. I am feeling really great–in fact, better than before I got sick, and I thought I was fine then. Who knew?”

“My weight is down 20 pounds since I first met with Jane. Even better, my recent blood work was terrific. My cholesterol dropped and my long-term blood sugar shifted from pre-diabetes, where it has been for the last several years, to normal. I am still enjoying new foods and am all vegan several days a week. Even the stress of my move hasn’t driven me to carb out!"

“Jane doesn’t dictate what you should do – she makes you an active participant in making positive changes in your life. She is extremely pleasant and knowledgeable and is definitely 'on my side.' She taught me new techniques and reinforced what I already knew about eating and overeating. She advocates gradual changes – and is not heavy-handed in her approach."

"Jane is my go-to Registered Dietitian. I have worked with her for the last 20 years with my fitness and wellness business. As a leading nutrition expert and registered dietitian, she inspires her clients to make better lifestyle choices. Her down-to-earth, realistic and personable counseling style puts clients at ease. She is an expert with special diets, healthy weight management, eating disorders, healthy cooking and meal planning, and so much more.”

“I have seen many medical specialists, nutritionists and health care professionals throughout the last 20 years for my chronic health problems. None of them have been able to help me or give me the results that I have achieved by working with Jane. For the first time in many years I am feeling physically better and have a more positive outlook. My doctors are surprised at the improvements in my health. I highly recommend her to anyone with any nutritional or health problem.”

“When my gastroenterologist recommended that I see a nutritionist for the formula-related digestive issues I was having, Jane was my first thought. She took a thorough history and really listened to my concerns. She found a formula for me that was less processed than others and then worked with me to 'tweak' my intake to be optimal, allowing me to gain the weight I needed, and maintain it successfully for almost a year now."

“I cannot thank you enough for your guidance since last spring! Just got new blood work back on Friday, and my HgA1C is down from 5.9 to 5.4, within normal range! Besides lowering that all important number, my total cholesterol dropped 13 points, and that’s with all the eggs and other healthy fats you encouraged me to eat! I have also dropped about 5 pounds. I’m assuming that adding the protein sources and cutting back carbs has led to that. Most days I now start with the mocha tahini shake, and it sustains me through all my intense morning exercise. THANK YOU!”
