Nutrition Client Testimonials
Client Recommendation
Laurie has worked hard to obtain the knowledge and the certification she has, but it is readily evident how much she loves the work and understands the connections between different body systems and the food we eat. She starts heirloom seeds in her greenhouse and then transplants them outdoors to eliminate many of the contaminants from commercial growers. She grows her own herbs in addition to growing and canning vegetables. She is always positive and encouraging and understands the great need for this work. She is patient, professional and kind. She is an excellent listener and a great communicator. Laurie never does anything halfway–she is an "all-in" type of person who has the energy, determination, and desire to help others.

Client Success Story
Prior to working with Laurie, the Endocrinologist had wanted me to start Metformin because she was concerned re: Prediabetic. After reading about the drug and it's side effects, there was no way I wanted to take Metformin–it essentially described a slow death. After working with Laurie and getting my "prediabetic" labs within normal limits it gave me ammunition to push back and tell the doctor that I was following an AIP diet and had seen great results with it. She couldn't argue with the objective data telling the story. The numbers have also been an inspiration to me to continue working with Laurie and following AIP (Autoimmune Plan)
Client Experience
Completed program paperwork for Laurie (medical history, food digest, medications I was on, etc.) She reviewed it with me, and I shared my lab work with her. She explained everything in a way I was able to easily understand and make connections to what was going on in my body. She started me out on a sugar free, gluten free diet and introduced me to the auto-immune protocol diet. At first, I was focusing on all the foods I couldn't have, and that made it very hard, but Laurie helped me to look at it differently–to look at all the things I can have. I ordered an Paleo Cookbook from Amazon that was amazing and has helped me tremendously
