Nutritional Consulting
- Do you have a chronic health condition, autoimmune or otherwise, that is slowing you down?
- Do you have chronic pain and / fatigue?
- Do you suffer from digestive problems like acid reflux, bloating and / constipation?
- Do you want to shed a few pounds and look and feel younger?
If you answered yes to any of the questions above, then nutritional therapy has the potential to help you.
As a Nutritional therapy Practitioner (NTP) trained by the Nutritional Therapy Association , I have expertise in treating digestive disorders and autoimmune diseases. I have healed my own self from the disability and pain of rheumatoid arthritis, which is an autoimmune condition. I understand what it means to live with chronic pain. When medications alone did not work for me, I looked to healing myself naturally – with diet, supplements and lifestyle changes. Now with all those changes, I have been able to reduce the dose of my medications and more importantly, I have been able to lead a close to normal life pursuing my passions.

Expertise

I have experience working with vegetarian clients too and have helped them heal successfully by using an elimination diet template that is based off of AIP philosophy.

Life Changing
"INDIRA HAS CHANGED MY LIFE! I am a 20 year old college student that got diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis about a year ago. My joints got so bad that it was difficult to get out of bed. After months of frustration and medication not working as well as it should, I decided to see Indira in an attempt to change my diet and see if that would yield any results. I have never dieted before and I love sweets, so I was incredibly nervous. 6 months later, I often wake up and forget I even have RA!! She is a lifesaver. She showed me how to look for foods that trigger flare ups, and directed me to foods that are healthy, reduce inflammation, and taste good! She supported me along my dieting journey, always supplying me with more eating tips and great recipes. I soon noticed a change in my symptoms, and when my blood labs came back they were so great my doctor thought I had started a new medication! Anyone can follow a diet, but Indira’s positive attitude, knowledge, and care for her clients is unmatched. I would highly encourage ANYONE struggling with Rheumatoid Arthritis (or any other autoimmune disease) to see Indira ASAP, so that your quality of life can be improved like mine has.”

Feasible Diet plan
“Indira helped me realize that a busy mom of two young kids can also eat healthy and stay healthy and not compromise on her health. I loved her meal plan options, recipes and flexibility in choosing the things that I like. I have hypothyroidism and weight loss has always been difficult. But by following Indira’s nutrition plan, in just 1 month, I could see the difference in my skin, hair and overall well being and i lost weight too.”

Great for the whole family
“As life takes over, sometimes it is hard to remember that taking care of yourself is also a priority. This was a lesson that I learnt from Indira who not only taught me this but lives this herself!. By following her program, not only did my overall health improve but I am now so motivated to do better for my family’s well being and health as well. Indira is amazing with the way she patiently helps customize a diet unique to your needs. I highly recommend working with her.”

What is Nutritional therapy?
Nutritional therapy is holistic, evidence based, comprehensive and personalized approach to health and healing. A nutritional therapist uses specific tools and relies on the body’s innate intelligence for assessing nutritional deficiencies and addresses those weaknesses through a nutrient dense, whole foods diet, natural supplements and lifestyle changes.
Nutritional therapy is highly successful in reversing many chronic conditions including diabetes, digestive disorders and autoimmune diseases.
What can I expect in a consulting session?
You will be asked to provide your detailed health history and a 3 day food journal. Then a comprehensive questionnaire will be administered to you to evaluate your nutritional deficiencies and weaknesses. Based on the information gathered from all the above, the nutritional therapist can create a symptom burden graph (like the one shown in the pic below) and assess what key areas you need support with. Based on this, they can provide you with a detailed diet, supplement and lifestyle recommendations aimed at improving your foundations of digestion, fatty acids, blood sugar balance, mineral balance and hydration.
