Testimonials for our nutritionists
While initially a bit apprehensive, embarking on the nutrition journey with Danielle Marcato has been transformative. We gained insights into our eating habits and learned about the nutritional value of different foods, which allowed us to make informed changes to our diet. The process of monitoring meals and regular consultations initially felt odd but quickly grew into a fun exchange with Danielle about different recipes, cooking tips, shopping, and restaurants. The consultations were warm, friendly and importantly non-judgmental. To my relief, Danielle still allowed me to drink beer. Thanks to Danielle's guidance, we feel empowered to achieve our personal health goals.
