What fast and slow sugars can’t do to you!

That eye-opener was not only the trigger for me to start eating less sugar, but was also the impetus to want to know much more about nutrition and what it does to us.

Training

During basic medical education, I became so impressed with our human body that I never stopped learning. Meanwhile, in addition to training in Orthomolecular Medicine, I have also completed the kPNI course at Natura Foundation, a course that teaches you to look for the cause, rather than treat symptoms. It has grown into a true passion!

My hunger for sugar has been replaced by hunger for knowledge, so a lot healthier for my body! And I certainly noticed that. I have much less headaches and my energy level has increased significantly.

Amazing how all the systems in the body work.

How all the systems in the human body work and interact can be called miraculous. Especially many chronic complaints arise because certain systems in our body become out of balance. By making changes in your lifestyle, you can reduce or eliminate symptoms.

Very nice to help people towards a more vital and energetic life!

It is very gratifying as an Orthomolecular therapist to be able to use this knowledge and also help other people towards a more vital and energetic life! Besides being a therapist, I also give workshops to help people, learn more about what nutrition does to your body , so you can more easily make your own choices towards a healthier lifestyle.

Sleep starts with good food

Proper nutrition contributes to a good night's sleep. There are several reasons for this. Food affects your gut and digestion, the production of sleep hormones and your blood sugar levels. And all these things, in turn, affect your sleep. So sleeping well begins with eating well.
