Cara Zaller, MS, CNS, MBA

 

No fitness specialist team would be complete without a high-end functional nutritionist and Cara Zaller fits that role perfectly!

A graduate of Emory university, Cara earned her masters in Clinical Nutrition from Maryland University of Integrative Health.  She earned her M.B.A. from The George Washington University.  Cara works with clients of all ages and sizes, health concerns, athletic goals and more.  Dr. Manison sends all his patients who wish to work on body composition change and have metabolic issues to Cara.  She is a true master!

Working in private practice since 2007, Cara is the owner of a holistic nutrition consulting company, FUEL4U, LLC and the creator of a nutrition and fitness-oriented board game called Go Paleo! which is currently being sold on her website, www.carazaller.com.

Cara has proven that “real food” is the key to optimal health and performance and that true health starts in the kitchen. Therefore, she uses diet and lifestyle modifications to mitigate and reverse health conditions by addressing the root cause of her clients’ symptoms.  She approaches nutrition from an integrative, functional perspective and uses nutrition to unlock the body’s potential to heal. A strong voice for self-advocacy, Cara inspires and empowers her clients to be active participants in their own health care. Her nutrition plans and counseling techniques are tailored to meet individual needs, schedules, and lifestyles.  She meets her clients where they need to begin and builds from there.

Cara has also worked in the fitness industry for more than 25 years and has competed and placed in aerobics and bikini competitions, tennis leagues, 10k and 5k races and several triathlons. She even placed first in her age group and 4th overall in the 2013 Diva Dash Obstacle Course Race. Cara is currently competing and winning in pickleball singles. She also enjoys lecturing in schools, corporations, health fairs and fitness-oriented stores. Fitness and health are her true passion.

Cara’s knowledge and passion are a huge asset to DBAM‘s vision of helping and educating and her knowledge of working with youth athletes is crucial for DBAM’s focus.
