Nancy's life mission is to provide education about whole foods nutrition and lifestyle strategies that support wellness and healthy aging. As a holistic health consultant, Nancy is constantly striving to find new ways to demonstrate the connection between health and nutrition, and the need for people to take an active role in promoting their own health and well-being.
What is holistic nutrition?
It is a way of eating that recognizes the fact that our bodies are equipped with innate healing processes. By supporting these natural processes, I believe clients can safely achieve ongoing health and vitality. Knowing that each person arrived at their current health status due to a combination of genetics, lifestyle, and environment, I strive to help people resolve physical, mental, and emotional issues in order to honor the complexity of the human system. Illness and disease are a signal from the body that it needs help and attention to return to its desired state of health. The natural approaches I recommend are intended to empower each individual to partner with his or her body and assist in its return to wellness.
Biochemical Individuality
Recognizing that every person is biochemically unique, I understand that everyone will respond differently to diet, supplement, and lifestyle recommendations. Together we will work to develop a personal protocol that is personally designed for you.

Personal Protocol - $225
You will be asked for more detailed information concerning your health history, your living environment, your current medications, and kinds of stress to which you are subjected. Nancy will ask you to keep a food journal for 3-4 days and to e-mail it to her prior to your conversation. She will review and analyze the nutritional content of your meals, furnishing you with a breakdown of your current diet’s nutritional strengths and weaknesses. Based on this profile, Nancy can then formulate a list of personalized steps you can take to achieve your individual health goals.
After you and Nancy collaborate to determine your health goals, you will also set up some parameters to measure your progress. The protocol you receive is designed for you to follow for an indicated period of time. Once you receive your protocol, you will have a 50-minute follow-up with Nancy again after 3-4 weeks time to see if you are managing to implement the protocol easily and smoothly.
Your Personal Protocol will include:
• An initial 90-minute one-on-one consultation
• An in-person or phone explanation of your Personal Protocol – 30 minutes
• Development & delivery of a 2-phase Personal Protocol including:
A binder containing multiple specific suggestions in 5 areas of Natural Health – Diet, Supplements, Botanicals, Exercise, Stress Management; Nancy’s personal double-check of drug/herb/supplement interactions*; Meal plans and menu suggestions
• A 50-minute follow-up to clarify to measure your progress and/or ask for help on how best to implement Nancy’s recommendations plus instructions on how and when to implement Phase 2 of your protocol
*Anyone taking prescription medications should always double check with their physicians before taking any vitamin or mineral supplement. Nancy will provide you with a form to give/fax to your doctor outlining the recommended supplements, dosages, and reasoning for them.
Nutritional Follow-up Calls -- $30/30 minutes
A personal protocol only works if it’s something you can follow. It’s normal to have some setbacks or obstacles when you’re moving away from old patterns of behavior and establishing new habits. A follow-up is often necessary to clarify a suggestion or get another suggestion that’s more in keeping with your lifestyle.
Two follow-up calls are included with the Personal Protocol, but sometimes additional ones are desired. Perhaps you invested in the Holistic Hour and would like a little more guidance. E-mail Nancy to schedule and Nutritional Follow-up Call and get some valuable coaching on how to transform your health and improve your well-being.
Meals 4 the Week in 4 (Hours)
Want to eat healthy meals but can’t find the time to cook? Or maybe you just don’t know how to begin planning a healthy menu. Let Nancy show you how easy it is to eat healthful and delicious food everyday with a minimum of preparation and cooking.
The process begins with a discussion of your food preferences and dislikes. If you have already worked with Nancy to develop a personal protocol, you can start your discussion here. Together, you and Nancy will plan a healthy menu for the week that appeals to your palate.
Nancy will provide you with a shopping list so you get used to finding the healthy ingredients you’ll need. If you need help finding healthy options in the grocery store, you might benefit from another of Nancy’s services, the Grocery Store Tour for Healthier Shopping (see below).
Once you have the ingredients, she and a helper will come by at a mutually-agreed upon time to show you how to whip up your meals for the week. Some you’ll freeze until you need them, others will be refrigerated. A list of appropriate containers will be provided upon request.
Menu-planning only -- $120
1st time menu-planning and 4 hours prep/cooking -- $350
Subsequent menu-planning and 4 hours prep/cooking -- $275
Additional cost for Nancy to do the grocery shopping too -- $85
Grocery Store Tour for Healthier Shopping -- $60
Pricing applicable for individuals or for a small group of up to five people.

Now that there are certain groceries you will regularly consume that you can only buy at the health food store, you could use a guide to show you where to find what you need, and point out some other items of interest. Have Nancy meet you at The Granary, Whole Foods, Richard’s, or Good Earth and give you a personalized tour. Not all the products in a health food store are healthy.
