Diabetes

 Nutrition therapy is the most important step in managing your diabetes. Diet and behavior modifications can reduce high or low blood sugar episodes and improve quality of life. Many diabetics are insulin resistant and overweight or obese.

 Medical Nutrition Therapy or MNT will help you reduce energy intake and increase energy expenditure through diet and physical activity. In addition to weight loss, MNT will help you improve glucose control and lower risk factors for cardiovascular disease. I will teach you exactly the amount, the type and timing of foods that should be included to your everyday diet to feel your best again.

LEAP ImmnoCalm Dietary Program

LEAP stands for Lifestyle Eating And Performance. The LEAP ImmunoCalm Dietary Program is a six-phase elimination diet designed to identify foods that cause adverse reactions based on the MRT (Mediated Release Test) results. This program was developed by a team of dietitians, physicians, immunologists and other health professionals with over 100 years of experience treating the health problems related to food sensitivities. There are good number of research articles showing that food can cause immune responses whereby cytokines, prostaglandins, and other inflammation and pain causing mediators are released. Patients who suffer from irritable bowl syndrome, Crohn's, Migraine and fibromyalgia with symptoms related to food sensitivity will be able to receive the most health benefits from trying LEAP. 

Weight Loss

Food fuels life and thus contributes to our overall physical and mental well-being. Balance is the key to good nutrition and should be found in both the quality and quantity of the food we eat. I believe there are as many diets as individuals and that weight loss programs can be adapted to meet each person’s individual needs.

I have helped clients to lose and maintain weight by customizing meal plans that fit each person’s lifestyle. The 1-2-3 meal plan is a nutrient rich diet that includes 1 dessert, 2 snacks and 3 meals daily. Add my 30-minute exercise plan to it and watch yourself lose weight, gain energy and feel in control.
