Services
Nutrition Counseling
Personalized nutrition counseling addresses chronic conditions through tailored dietary strategies. Our Registered Dietitian develops customized meal plans based on advanced diagnostics and individual health goals. Services include metabolic health optimization, diabetes management, and food-as-medicine approaches for disease prevention.
GI-MAP Testing
Comprehensive stool analysis identifies gut microbiome imbalances and pathogens. This diagnostic tool detects bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections while assessing digestive health markers. Results guide targeted interventions for conditions like IBS, SIBO, and leaky gut syndrome through personalized treatment protocols.
DUTCH Testing
Advanced hormonal analysis evaluates sex hormones, cortisol rhythms, and neurotransmitter metabolites. The dried urine test identifies imbalances contributing to fatigue, mood disorders, and metabolic dysfunction. Customized interventions address thyroid issues, adrenal fatigue, and hormonal imbalances through targeted nutrition and supplementation.
Diabetes Management
Specialized programs combine nutritional education with functional testing to optimize diabetes care. Services include carbohydrate management strategies, insulin resistance mitigation, and metabolic health improvement through personalized meal planning and continuous glucose monitoring support.
Environmental Health
Comprehensive assessment identifies environmental toxin impacts on health. Services include mold and mycotoxin testing, chemical sensitivity evaluation, and detoxification support. Personalized protocols reduce body burden from endocrine disruptors and environmental pollutants affecting metabolic and immune function.

Jana has been fantastic in helping me with my nutrition / wellness goals. Her platform is very easy to navigate and she is very available outside of just appointments to communicate when I have questions. Additionally, being able to meet virtually has been great for me. Jana is a joy to work with as a medical professional and gives very reasonable advice to help with my health concerns that have significantly impacted my health for the better. Highly recommend working with her.

Report
I started working with Jana Davis because I wanted to transition to a plant-based diet. But I also wanted to protect my bones and maintain my health in doing so. Jana helped me create a plan and also advised me on which supplements I needed and which I could eliminate. She has been extremely helpful--I highly recommend her. (And she's an extraordinarily nice person!)

I've worked with a few specialists in town all of which have been very knowledgable and helpful but Jana is different. You can tell she legitimatelyenjoys her work and helpingpeople understand different avenues to living the best versions of themselves. I've never felt like a number or like I was a source revenue for her. She's treated me like a member of her family and is responsive to inquiries. There are countless reasons one may need the services offered by Jana. If you're looking for your first opinion or a second opinion for whatever reason, I can't recommend her enough.

Was diagnosed as pre-diabetic w/ an a1c @ 6.4. listened to to many ppl say, cut out the sugar or cut out the carbs though as most have an extremely busy life. did some research & in about six months (long months) was able to get my a1c to 5.7. thought since i was able to get it down that it was okay to go back to my regular routine. it didnt take long, believe three months time, my a1c was back to 6.4. searched online & seen only two ppl that were actually qualified / certified in south carolina. reached out to both, though Jana Davis was an hour drive, felt she would be a better

I cannot recommend working with Jana Davis enough. She truly loves her work and has all the passion in the world for what she does. Ive had type one diabetes since the age of 10 and its hard for health care professionals to really get it, but Jana does just that. She cares, she listens, and gives the tools, resources and knowledge to keep your A1C in range while maintaining a healthy and consistent lifestyle. Shes wants the best for her patients and truly wants to see them succeed. She keeps up on whats new in the ever changing and evolving diabetes world and recommends changes
