Chews Food Wisely

Nicole's information has been tremendously helpful. Her self course is so full of easy to understand and scientifically based facts that I feel I can make smarter choices for my eating habits. Her knowledge of the intricacies of how the body works with metabolism and chemistry is so comprehensive it makes me feel as if I have a private tutor for a college course. I have been devouring all of the information and will review it again and again in hopes to glean a better understanding of my own health journey. I did the self course and labs and I can't thank her enough for her work. After so many years of being told my labs were normal and being tired is a part of aging, I now know how my own metabolism is causing me to hold onto weight and what to do to become healthier. Communicating with her has been so easy and if you truly want to own your path to a better healthy nutritional plan, follow her on her social media or better yet sign up for one of her many courses. Working with Nicole has been one of the best choices I've made for my own health journey!

There isn't enough space in this review box for me to express how thankful I am for Nicole. I originally came to her for help with GI issues that landed me in the ER three times within 6 months, but ended up learning about + healing other issues I didn't even know existed. Nicole is as thorough as they come, and she will be your biggest cheerleader throughout your time working with her. I don't think "dietician" quite covers the capabilities and expertise Nicole exhibits in all of her work. Not only did she help me heal my gut issues by getting to the root of the problem, she identified other areas like severe hyperthyroidism that needed improvement and worked alongside me until we found the right provider for our team. She never stopped advocating for me, and she stuck by my side when I refused a thyroidectomy which was my "only choice" according to the first few doctors I talked with. 6 months later and my gut is healthy, my thyroid is functioning at optimal capacity, and I have my energy back. There are a million other "little" things Nicole helped me accomplish, but I can say with full confidence that I would not be where I am today without her. I cannot recommend Nicole with Chews Food Wisely enough.

Nicole is a brilliant dietitian! I would recommend her over and over again to anyone suffering with any type of hormone imbalance. She approaches each session with a positive, kind, and compassionate outlook. She listens to your concerns and comes up with innovative solutions. As someone who was struggling with poor gut health, a PCOS diagnosis, and a myriad of symptoms, Nicole tackled my situation efficiently and armed with a ton of knowledge to improve my health. She ran testing that no other provider on my team did and uncovered the root of my issues. Years after working together, Nicole also made herself available to help guide me through my pregnancy in regards to nutrition and safe supplementation. I trust and respect Nicole more than any provider on my care team and know I can count on her to guide me through any health challenges I may face.

Working with Nicole is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my health. After being diagnosed with PCOS in 2020, I tried many “PCOS diets” and supplement protocols, but always ended up frustrated, discouraged, and very hungry. Nicole has given me a plan that makes me feel nourished and satisfied. Her practical approach is sustainable and is something I feel I can continue with long term. She is a brilliant dietician who fully understands and can explain what is happening in your body. Her science driven and lab backed approach assured me that the supplements I’m taking and the diet and lifestyle changes I’m making are the right path forward. I cannot recommend working with Nicole enough!

Nicole is not only knowledgeable, she is a wonderful person! I was tired of guessing or trying things I saw on Instagram or social media when it came to nutrition & diet. I was also tired of doctors brushing off my symptoms or just prescribing medication instead of trying to understand the real problem. I started searching for a dietician to help me with low energy levels, brain fog, poor concentration, insomnia & overall nutrition to support my health, exercise routine & motherhood when I found Nicole Fennell while searching on Google. After working with her one-on-one, I’m feeling MUCH better with steady energy every day. She listens to whatever issues you may be having & helps you work out a plan of resolution. Before working with her I was taking sleeping pills for insomnia, stimulants to combat the sleep aid daytime effects, and long-term oral contraceptives for all the pre-menstrual & menstrual nonsense. After working with Nicole, reviewing data from labs, & following her macros, micronutrients & supplement recommendations I now only take a very mild sleep aid. I have zero cycle-related symptoms!! She has created an entire video library with so much nutrition information that clients have access to even after you’ve finished your one-on-one work with her. She also provides tons of recipes that are specific to the goals & diet plan she prescribes to you. I feel very blessed to have found her & fortunate to be one of her clients!!

Nicole is one of the best if not the best practitioner I've ever worked with. She provides comprehensive, evidence based information in a way that's easy to understand and is always available to answer questions and respond to concerns. Nicole not only guided me in managing digestive issues that my doctors dismissed for years but put me on track to get a diagnosis for a condition that could have been extremally dangerous if it had continued to go untreated. I will forever grateful for her care and support.

When you are just trying to muster the energy to make it through a day, you don’t realize how much of life you are missing. Nicole changed that for me. She balanced the results of lab testing with a holistic and sustainable approach to everyday life, took the time to review my labs on a deeper level, and listened to how I was feeling. Her explanations are easy to follow and validating. Objectively, my labs are better than they have been in a long time. Subjectively, I feel stronger than I have in years and consistently find myself doing things that were once part of my life that I had forgotten about because I didn’t have the energy. Nicole has given me my life back, she is a blessing, and I am forever grateful I had the opportunity to work with her.

I am so grateful to Nicole for her knowledge and dedication. She’s smart, genuine, fun, and made me feel like family. After working with Nicole to arrest inflammation, increase my dietary knowledge and awareness, and fuel my body and soul to be the best person I could be, I can say, that Nicole exceeded my expectations. My inflammation has been significantly reduced, my knowledge and awareness increased, and I feel better than great. An added bonus is I’m still experimenting and having fun in the kitchen! I highly recommend Nicole.

Joining Nicole’s thyroid boot camp was the best decision I made. I learned so much from her detailed webinars and it helped me understand how the body works. I immediately implemented some of the things she talks about and feel better already. I can’t wait to work on the recommendations she has made for me and continue to feel better. Highly recommend working with nicole if you are dealing with chronic health issues.

When I started working with Nicole, I had recently been diagnosed with PCOS, had been dieting for years though still gaining weight, and was dealing with constant fatigue and exhaustion. Originally, my goals with Nicole were to lose weight and PCOS management was somewhat secondary. I thought I generally was doing very well on nutrition since I was eating the recommended servings of vegetables and keeping my calories “reasonably” low, so I didn’t understand why I was dealing with so many symptoms, cravings, and hunger. I didn’t even know I could live a life without constant fatigue since it was just so normal for me! Nicole’s deep knowledge of her field really showed me how much more I could do to improve and optimize my health while both eating more, managing my PCOS, and managing/lose weight. Her wisdom, compassion, and kindness also really challenged me to evaluate my relationship with food and body image and my why for working with her. After three months of working with her, my relationship with food has improved so much, and I am feeling SO much better than ever! It has also been very neat to see all the positive biometric feedback from my body like increased body temperature showing my metabolism healing, my period regulating for the first time in my life, and my recovery after intense workouts getting so much better! I can not recommend Nicole enough and it has been SUCH a joy working with her.
