Energized Wellness

Nutritionist

I earned a Master of Science degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from the University of Western States after graduating with Bachelor of Science degrees in Pre-Medicine and Psychology from Portland State University. Before earning my master’s, I spent many years working in research, including Alzheimer’s Disease, Cognitive Neuroscience, and Nutrition. Later, I served as Nutrition Director for Onnit, an Austin, TX supplement company, writing nutrition articles and assisting in product development. It was here that the desire to work with clients in an individualized capacity was sparked, which prompted me to begin Energized Wellness and work as a Functional Medicine Nutritionist. I enjoy working with a variety of clients and their various reasons for seeing me. Often, these include metabolic disorders, autoimmunity, hormonal imbalances, athletes, and those just looking to obtain better health. In my spare time, I love to meditate, practice Tai Chi, rock climb, and train with a Muay Thai kickboxing team at Brazillian Fight Factory. I also get the honor of helping the fighters safely cut weight in addition to maintaining optimal health between fights. Read more

    If you want someone who knows what they are talking about , Brenda is who you want to see and talk about getting your health back on track. She goes out of her way and takes every oppurtunity to learn and teach all that is necessary to help naturally get you feeling healthy and normal again. So easy to talk to and eager to help in anyway she can. Truly has been a blessing in disguise for me , life changing .

    I've worked with Brenda Gregory several times over the last 2-3 years during weight cuts for kickboxing competitions. Weight cutting is a very tricky and potentially dangerous process, but Brenda has gotten me through my cuts healthy and feeling good 100% of the time. She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work, she works very hard with my entire team in order to make sure we are all at our competitive best. I honestly don't know how I would possibly compete without her help! She has earned my absolute trust, and the trust of my team. I would recommend her to any athlete looking for a competitive edge, as well as anyone looking to live a healthier, happier life.

    Brenda is an integral part of the preparation for our kickboxing team. Our athletes have to make weight, recover, and perform in short time. Brenda provides personalized consultations, diet and recovery plans, and is always there to advise and tweak as needed. Our team members have never missed weight and have always been fully recovered to compete. Furthermore she provides cool extra services, like grocery store tours to help educate you about the best ingredients to buy and what to avoid. I feel like having Brenda work with our team gives us a real advantage over our competitors.
