Here’s what L. with PCOS had to say:

I started going to Christine to combat my Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, which is a hormonal imbalance. My body makes too many androgens (which cause facial hair, missed periods, etc. in women), so I wanted to change that through diet. The lifestyle change that Christine helped me make was started by consuming foods closer to their original source. Over the course of my consultation, I phased out certain foods to bring my body back into balance. Removing added sugar (or anything that my body processes similarly) was the biggest help for me. I don’t feel as hungry during the day anymore, my skin’s clearer, and my mind feels sharper. I’ve also lost about 12 pounds between this lifestyle change and frequent exercise. People have been asking me what I have changed and I tell them to consider visiting an NTP. It really works if you stick to it!

History

Established in 2013.

I founded Nourishing Foundations to help clients improve their health and well-​being through a holistic approach to nutrition.

When I had my own health problems in 2012, I worked with a nutritional therapy practitioner (NTP) to implement a whole-​foods diet that was nourishing. My health improved significantly and I lost weight and experienced renewed energy and vitality. The positive results inspired me to enroll in the NTP training offered by the Nutritional Therapy Association. I learned how to treat different conditions with nutrients from food as well as high-​quality supplements (am conservative) as well as a holistic and integrative approach to assessing and counseling clients.

In my practice, I look at the physical, emotional and mental well-​being of each client. I educate clients about the benefits of a whole foods diet and help them transition to a nutritional lifestyle that has lasting results
