Most of the modern day chronic disease epidemic is a direct result of poor nutrition. What we put in our bodies directly affects our everyday health, both physical and mental, and that’s why correcting one’s diet is the most foundational and important step toward health. If this is out of order, no amount of supplements, herbs, or any other treatments will fix the health problems. When it does in some rare instances, it is nothing more than just a temporary fix, because the root cause was never addressed and the health issues come back shortly. Then we’re on the hunt for the next quick fix.

Everyone’s definition of ‘healthy eating’ is different. For some it is counting calories, for others it is eating low-fat, and yet for someone else it might mean eating strictly plant-based. I approach nutrition a little differently: I count nutrients – not calories, I look at human history and use our ancestors’ wisdom instead of some government agency’s guidelines. My clients do NOT feel deprived when using my whole food menu plans and they DO feel the difference pretty quickly after changing their eating habits.
