I have always had interest in nutrition and fitness. Over the years I have tried to stay healthy, eat right, and exercise. But that didn’t seem to always translate into maintaining the leaner body physique that I was aiming for. For almost a decade I have been researching and studying nutritional science, and recently obtained my certification as a Holistic Nutritionist Consultant. My interest is in the biology of how our body reacts to the foods we eat.

Through my journey I have tried many different dieting options, such as, calorie counting, paleo, plant-based whole foods, shakes, fasting, low/no fat, and so on. Problem was that I didn’t really understand at the time what the body was biologically doing with these “diets”. That is why I rarely saw long term changes and why most people out there also fall short of their goals. I know that most people have the intentions of eating healthy so they can be healthy. But, for the most part, I talk to people about nutrition and still realize that what we are told in the mainstream is healthy eating, in fact, is not. What we are told causes diabetes (type 2), heart disease, cardiovascular disease, and many other metabolic syndromes is, in fact, not true. What we are told to eat in order to be healthy and lose weight, in fact does just the opposite.
