Improving the quality of your everyday life is my goal. Fewer infections, better digestion, sleep, energy and more.
Finding the Root Causes of Your Symptoms
Symptoms are an expression of a problem. Rather than try to treat a symptom, functional health practitioners try to find the cause of the symptom.
This is what I do, working with clients worldwide by phone or in my Diet & Health Center offices in San Antonio. Contact me to see if we might work together.
What is a Clinical Nutritionist?
I’ve been in practice since 1985, Board Certified as a Clinical Nutritionist in 1989. We are not Dietitians or Nutritionists. We’re an elite profession working with the body’s chemistry. Lab work is a specialty. I carry professional grade supplements from more than 50 companies and attend seminars on the latest in cellular nutrition.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a licensed medical doctor and cannot diagnose, treat or prescribe. I help you educate yourself to make better choices and communicate with your doctors.
My Approach for Real Change
My goal is to address core issues stressing key body systems as quickly as we can. First with a food and lifestyle review, not by random expensive tests. Or selling you lots of supplements right off. Sometimes upgrading how you live and eat resolves several secondary issues and allows us to get quickly to the primary ones.
Most practitioners skip this step and start with profitable labs and pricey pills. That’s a cookbook approach. (Symptom XXX? Take pill YYY). People spend thousands on labs they may not need with the same supplements as everyone else. This is common, but totally wrong.
Once we have worked together two or three times (by phone or in person) I might do Nutrition Response Testing in-house with samples you submit. This is one way I build supplement programs. I can also suggest supplements based on our interview and your History.
Many clients see me quarterly to update their supplement program. We eliminate products not needed anymore or not working at the highest level, such as vitamins you may be on when we first talk. Let’s replace those with what you need, not something you bought at random.

Fees and Support
I do not accept Insurance. I charge $150/hour – about 1/3rd what other elite practitioners charge. Ongoing email support is not included in Consults. We have review appointments and follow-ups as needed.
What are your specialties?
I have a lot of experience with Anxiety, the Adrenals, Sleep, Leaky Gut, Herpes, Epstein Barr, the Thyroid, Autoimmune Disorders, Fatigue, Digestion, IBS and specialty labs most doctors don’t know about. I have a wide range of knowledge and can assist with many issues not mentioned here.
Do Clients talk with Beverly personally?
Yes, I work alone. Your intake forms are not evaluated by an apprentice – a problem with many Virtual practitioners and functional wellness practitioners.
Most appointments are 90 minutes but sometimes an hour, or half-hour are fine once we have started working together.
Can we use your Online Store?
If you can’t do a Consult yet, check out my Online Store. I carry professional products for Viruses, Candida, thyroid and adrenal support, sleep, stress and anxiety. Plus digestion and allergies! Online products are chosen from hundreds in my office to be safe and effective. Click the Supplement Category that looks helpful. Every product has useful written information written and maybe an article or Podcast.
I only carry professional grade supplements, not discount brands. There IS a difference. One well-known practitioner sells products I refuse to carry. Many of mine are priced LESS than Amazon.
