Did you know that this generation of young people is the first that is forecast to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents? 1 in 3 or 4 children born in the year 2000 will develop diabetes at some point in their lifetime… The prevalence of overweight children among 6-11 year olds has doubled in the past 20 years and tripled for teens.

Adopting healthy behavior can have lifelong consequences. The goal of this education is not only to increase the parent’s health knowledge, but to create healthy behavior in the children of those parents. Health Education is most effective if parents are involved.

CNC – Certified Nutritional Consultant. I provide education in nutrition for the individual seeking to regain their health as well as group seminars for parents and their children on health issues. Proper nutrition in the school age years can reinforce lifelong eating habits that contribute to a student’s overall well being. This will help them to grow and learn to their fullest potential, and then go on to lead a long, healthy life. I provide an introduction to the human body and to factors that prevent illness and promote or damage health.

FDN-P – Functional Diagnostic Nutrition. Certification to utilize lab testing through Biohealth Diagnostics. FDN-P does not diagnose or treat specific diseases. Instead it explores the underlying causes of health challenges. Because symptoms are the last thing to be revealed in a disease process, usually function has been lost for some time. Symptoms are physical manifestations of a problem far deeper than most doctors are willing to look for. Like the tip of an iceberg, symptoms are a signal that there is dysfunction lying beneath the surface. When treatment is pills or surgeries to eradicate symptoms, the root cause is never discovered and dealt with. Health concerns can be managed and resolved with functional lab testing and integrative approaches to treatment.

NBCCT – Nationally Board Certified Colon Therapist through I-ACT (International Association for Colon Therapy). Colon Therapy is a wonderful adjunct to any health improvement plan, and is an excellent therapy for those in chronic states of ill health.

A-CFHC – ADAPT Certified Functional Health Coach. As a coach I am your advocate and your ally. My goal will always be to offer you the personal support that you need to accomplish your goals. I am equipped to answer your specific needs when asked, help you through your personal rough spots, and provide whatever encouragement will help you reach the next step in your wellness journey.

If your doctor tells you its time to lose weight, as your health coach I can support you in creating a diet plan and exercise regimen to help you succeed. You don’t need to wait until a chronic illness develops to seek my help as your health coach! Whether its diet, lifestyle or even motivational help in other areas of life, as your health coach I offer individual and group sessions which can be accomplished via the internet – Zoom/Skype, by phone, or in person. You can choose the format that works best for you and your budget.

Weston A. Price Foundation Chapter Leader for Winchester & Hemet, CA.

The Foundation is dedicated to restoring nutrient-dense foods to the human diet through education, research and activism. It supports a number of movements that contribute to this objective including accurate nutrition instruction, organic and biodynamic farming, pasture-feeding of livestock, community supported farms, honest and informative labeling, prepared parenting and nurturing therapies. Specific goals include establishment of universal access to clean, certified raw milk and a ban on the use of soy formula for infants.

As a Local Chapters leader I can help you find locally-grown organic and biodynamic vegetables, fruits and grains; and milk products, butter, eggs, chicken and meat from pasture-fed animals. I represent the Weston A. Price Foundation via local fairs, conferences, and yearly at Perris Unified School District – via their Parent University program. The nutrition classes help the parents and others to learn to integrate properly prepared whole foods into their lifestyles. This is our 10th year and we have a wonderful community of regular class attenders – if you click on the “class schedule” tab at the top of this page you can find the dates for the next class – they are free with English/Spanish translation.
