Jay Wolkoff brings his practice, Integrative Nutrition Solutions, to Wolkoff Dental. He graduated summa cum laude with a Master of Science Degree in Human Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport with a focus on Functional Medicine. He was awarded a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of New Haven in Nutrition and Dietetics. Jay is passionate about providing individualized and comprehensive dietary and lifestyle supports to his clients. In addition to providing nutritional support for dentally related issues, Jay is also available to assist individuals with other health challenges linked to nutrition.
Integrative Nutrition Solutions is a comprehensive approach that considers:
Biochemical Individuality - There is no “right” eating approach that works for everybody all of the time. As the adage goes, “one man’s food is another man’s poison.” Individual and human societies have achieved a remarkable degree of health on a wide range of diets. No one should feel obligated to take on an eating approach based upon rigid guidelines or dietary dogma.
Personal and Cultural Preferences - Eating has a strong emotional and social component, and any effective dietary intervention must take the client’s food preferences and cultural needs into consideration.
Lifestyle and Vocational Situation- The unique work situation for one individual might vary considerably from that of another. An office employee working 9 to 5 is going to have different needs from someone who works from home, or someone spending all day on the road. Yet time constraints and unusual circumstances can be overcome with proper planning.
Budgetary Constraints With a background in accounting, Jay can help you find the ideal diet and healthy food choices that will be budget friendly.
Current Health Status - Sometimes even the healthiest foods or food groups can be problematic when one’s body is experiencing compromised health. As someone who has experienced severe and debilitating food sensitivities and intolerances, Jay understands the importance of monitoring one’s diet for potentially problematic food choices.
Conventional and Functional Medical Labs - There are many conventional and alternative labs that can help discover the root cause of your health complaints. Working with other professionals involved in your overall health plan, Jay will guide the team to find the right labs to run, assist in proper interpretation and customize nutritional and supplement support to fit your personal needs
Supplements, Botanical Extracts, and Herbs - With over 90% of the American public unable to meet their recommended nutritional guidelines, Jay can safely guide you towards the supplements that can have the greatest impact on your overall health.
Emotional Support and Mind-Body Therapies - Most challenging health situations have an underlying emotional or mind-body component that must be addressed for complete healing to occur. Jay can guide clients to the appropriate mainstream and alternative therapies when coaching alone appears insufficient.
