Testimonial
"For over four decades, I have been plagued by allergies. I have sought treatment from many different healthcare practitioners, tried various medications and supplements, and even adopted different diets. But none of them provided any relief. As I aged, my allergy symptoms got worse, and I even began to experience gut discomfort, joint pain, and loss of energy.
​
I attributed this to the effects of aging. I assumed that I would have to live with these symptoms for the rest of my life and that my tennis-playing days were numbered.
She put me on a 12-week program that began with a microbiome test. When we reviewed the results, I was amazed at how much care and interest Natalia took in my health. She taught me about gut health and provided me with a food plan and supplement regimen.
​
Within a short period of time, I noticed significant changes in my body. My gut felt better, my joint pain decreased, and, most importantly, my allergy symptoms improved dramatically. I lost seven pounds, which improved my mobility on the tennis court, and my energy level doubled. Natalia's program also gave me the confidence to choose the right supplements, develop a great meal plan, and select the appropriate snacks for traveling. I now feel empowered and in control of my health."
Nina Schmidt, Sarasota, Florida
​
“I have been lucky enough to work with Natalia personally and share many happy clients with her. Natalia personally helped me years ago when I learned I had a gene mutation impacting my health. I had debilitating anxiety that was present every moment of my life and impacting other areas of my health. Her studies in functional nutrition addressed that specific gene and she has been able to help me prevent my daily anxiety from taking over my life through simple supplements rather than medication. This has been life changing for me and I still follow her advice and simple regimen over 7 years later. I am forever grateful for having Natalia in my life. She has been such a reliable resource and I still cannot believe the difference she has made in my nervous system with my anxiety.”
Jenna Dodge, Largo, Florida

Your Gut drives your Health - Your Gut drives your Brain - Your Gut drives your Weight.
Beat The Bloat - Health Takes Guts
Are you always tired? Sick of bloating and stomach pain? Experiencing relentless headaches? Stuck in a cycle of food cravings? Feeling brain fogged.
IT DOESN’T NEED TO BE THIS WAY!
A thriving digestive system is critical to good health. In fact, problems with the gastrointestinal (GI) tract can cause more than just gas and bloating.
GI issues may underlie chronic health problems, including autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, skin problems and heart disease.
My program follows the simple acronym of the ‘5Rs’: Remove the bad bacteria, Replace key digestive secretions to keep bad bacteria at bay, Repopulate with healthy, strain-specfiic probiotics, Repair Your Leaky Gut, and Rebalance Your Lifestyle. When applied to various chronic health issues, the Gut Health program can lead to dramatic improvement in symptoms, and sometimes even complete resolution.

Clear out gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating, constipation, heal leaky gut and remove SIBO and Candida?

“Natalia understands people and their struggles in becoming healthier and gives them the tools to become successful. Were it not for her, I would not have known that I had a condition known as SIBO. Her recommendation to enlist my doctor's help in specific testing for several possible causes for my digestion problems was spot on and I no longer need to take medications to relieve the symptoms that had stalled my enjoyment of healthy foods. Specific plans for dealing with food allergies, sensitivities, medical concerns, meal planning, tools, tips and planning for healthier living are her talent."- Joyce E. - Ellenton, FL
HORMONE RESET PROGRAM
Rebalance your Hormones - Reach Your Ideal Weight and Get your life back!
Hormone Reset makes it easy to lose weight with some discipline each week without you feeling deprived.
Reset members spend most of the week eating freely, without unrealistic diets to follow and enjoying the healthier alternative options to their favorite foods. I will coach you on how nutrients impact your hormones, lifestyle habits, mindful eating, but no calorie counting or stressful decisions.
This program includes individual support, hormone rebalancing recipes, and Functional Medicine hormonal testing. Hormone testing that shows you how to grow new receptors for your seven metabolic hormones, making you lose weight and feel great fast! When it comes to weight loss, most people don't think about hormones.
But when you develop resistance to your seven major metabolic hormones--cortisol, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone, leptin, insulin, and estrogen--your body adjusts by increasingly raising your hormone levels and ultimately slowing down your metabolism.
A slower metabolism leads to weight gain and difficulty losing weight. The solution is to reset the efficiency of your hormones by repairing and growing new hormone receptors. Based on leading scientific research, The Hormone Reset Program is one of my proven weight loss and energy programs to reverse hormone resistance in just 10 weeks.
What to expect from the Hormone Reset program?
-
Boost your metabolism and calorie burning by growing new and fresh thyroid receptors
-
Increase your weight loss by re-balancing estrogen and progesterone receptors
-
Reverse your aging by resetting glucocorticoid receptors (for better processing cortisol).

Testimonials
Dinora joined my program to stop food cravings after receiving her lab results.
She was obese and unable to lose weight through dieting. She was feeling defeated, having to take medicine daily just to manage annoying symptoms and unable to discover the ROOT CAUSE of her health issues.
​
"I was tired and with body aches... always craving bread and sweets, emotionally attached to food, it was my comfort zone.
​
I was blaming my age (58) and statins for my body aches, I was taking omeprazole almost every day for my acid reflux...
​
Based on my symptoms Natalia narrowed down that I had Candida overgrowth, gave me the tools to start a gluten, sugar and dairy free plan to detox my body, after a month, no more bloating, acid reflux, body aches, improved blood work, 24 pounds down and the best of all, now I’m in control of my cravings.
​
Now, I’m able to stop and think if it’s worth it, now I’m a smart eater."
Whole Self Detox Program
​
Detox your body and mind from unhealthy foods, stress and limiting beliefs
The Detox Program is a simple plan to get you where you want to be! You will reach your ideal weight, get rid of unwanted symptoms, support healthy metabolism, help detoxify & replenish your powerhouse body.
​
Detoxes are popular because we all want to feel our best! Often people do an intense yearly detox and then try to maintain healthier habits. Unfortunately it's easy to fall back into the traps of processed foods, alcohol, excess sugars and caffeine. My approach to detox addresses body, mind and spirit as a whole, so removing harmful elements becomes a lifestyle not a quick fix. I created a full-spectrum program to allow us to remove every toxic barrier that keeps us from total health and vital, fulfilling lives. I want a clear, actionable program that even the busiest and most stressed of my clients can follow.
Would you like to experience:
-
Steady energy levels?
-
Restful sleep?
-
Revitalized immune system and optimism?
-
Increased focus and memory?
-
Healthy looking skin?
-
Change of mindset to remove toxic beliefs?

Testimonials
“Before meeting Natalia I was at my wits end, my blood work was a mess and I was obese. I was always tired and just not happy. Through her program and specialty testing
I found that I had gut bacteria imbalance, mercury toxicity, and several nutrient deficiencies. This was eye opening and all reasons I could not lose weight and feel well.
I am currently at half of my blood pressure medication! I feel great. I have energy to burn and look forward to my workouts at the end of a long workday and actually have the energy to complete it."
D.H., Bradenton, Florida
​
"I was referred to Natalia from my primary. Natalia worked with my on diet changes, but as the months progressed, I was still feeling terrible. Chronic fatigue, brain fog and depression just to name a few. I also suffered chronic urinary tract infections typically treated with antibiotics. After much debate Natalia encouraged me to have additional testing done to rule out Sibo and or Leaky Gut. The tests were expensive but well worth the money. The results were alarming and very detailed with glaring nutrient deficiencies. Natalia put me on a protocol of vitamins and nutrients, and I was fortunate to get into the Functional Medicine Dept at the Cleveland Clinic. The scariest part of my results was the heavy metals present in my body (which explained why I was feeling so bad). I have been on a strict gluten free diet, have been chelating the metals out of my body and I feel human again. It’s a long process. My takeaway is your “gut” is your engine and responsible for so much more than we know. Natalia had me research, we met regularly, and we still stay in touch. I know she is a phone call or office visit away at all times. Her Functional Medicine background and desire to help people get to the root cause of the problem is remarkable. She does not quit until she is satisfied and has answers for her patients. Meeting Natalia had been life changing for me. Often Drs just want to refer you to the next specialist, (especially when the symptoms are masked) The old slogan of “we are what we eat “is so true! We are flooded with processed foods, fillers, antibiotic raised meats and dairy that wreak havoc on our bodies. Eating clean is hard, and dining out is a challenge, but I do feel so much better. Thank you, Natalia! I am forever grateful for your tenacity and caring ability to get me on the right path. I wish there were more clinicians like you."
Elaine Ackel, Lakewood Ranch, Florida
