When you don’t feel your best, everything suffers: your work life, your personal life, even your self-esteem. Many Americans are suffering from Chronic Conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, GI issues, skin conditions, migraines, fatigue, brain fog/memory loss, or a generally poor quality of life. All of these chronic conditions can be improved with better nutrition.
Sure, it is difficult to maintain a healthy lifestyle on the go. And, many people don’t know where to start when they go to the grocery store or even how to cook a healthy meal. Instead, they choose what is easy or convenient, contributing to long-term chronic health issues.
When you make nutrition a priority, you save time and money by preventing or reversing chronic illnesses, spending less time feeling bad and increasing your ability to work, play and enjoy life.
I am Taft Draper, Registered Dietitian and Integrative Nutritionist, based in the Asheville, NC area and serving clients worldwide, who has made it my mission to help my clients understand that food is medicine and that it is your best ally for a healthy, happy life.

I met with Taft to find a nutrition solution that would increase my energy levels and reduce my weight by approximately 20 lbs. I hike, kayak, cycle, and mountain bike and need lots of healthy fuel to power it. I followed his suggestions and within 8 weeks I achieved my weight loss goal, with a dramatic increase in energy. Listen to Taft’s advice and it will pay off. I feel fantastic now!!

Taft is excellent, I have lost 10lbs of body fat and gained 17 lbs of muscle in the 2 years that I have been seeing him. I am a avid cross fitter, mountain biker, and whitewater kayaker and everything has improved due to my nutrition! Thanks Taft.

My experience with Taft Draper has been nothing but successful. I came to see Taft with multiple chronic illnesses and what I found has been life changing. Taft introduced me to a new testing service that allows me to know what foods my body is sensitive to. By eating these sensitive foods my body continues to yo-yo. Once I got my results Taft was able to support me in starting a new diet that began calming my immune system down. I am currently 4 months into this diet and have reduced my symptoms by 90%. Taft has been a great support. Thank you for your services!

Taft Draper began helping me with anemia and IBS. Taft had guided me through changes to my nutrition to reduce the symptoms of IBS and enrich my nutrition to increase my iron intake/absorption. Taft’s expertise allows me to use the Mediator Release Test/Lifestyle Eating and Performance information to improve my life through better health.
