I attended Andrea's workshop on inflammation and I was so glad I did. What a refreshing change of pace. A knowledgeable caring professional not trying to plug some product line. The information was well presented, current, and made sense for every day life. My biggest takeaway, aside from the food pyramid, the reinforcement of it being OK for the changes we have to make to take time. That made me feel that this is a woman we can trust.

I am super thankful that Andrea helped me get to a place where I was able to take things over once our sessions ended.  During our time together, she took the time to explain how gut health is connected to so many other things.  She got me thinking and made me realize that this journey was going to be well worth it.  She responded to any questions I had along the way promptly and without judgement.  For me, our bi-weekly sessions were almost like key milestones along the way, both justifying the process and increasing my confidence that I could move forward on my own once our sessions came to an end, which I think is a huge accomplishment for me and a tribute how important of a role you played in educating and supporting my journey. Over our time together I saw significant improvement on my gut health; reached my goal weight in time for a milestone birthday; learned so much about the foods we should eat more of and those that we really should cut back on; and most importantly, how to listen to my body. I now know what it feels like to feel really good.

Andrea presented to our membership in the fall of 2022. She is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in the area of digestive health. Andrea delivered the material with ease, made the group comfortable to engage with her, and generated a lot of dialogue with the members. The members valued the time spent with Andrea and took away information and tools they could apply to their own health and well-being.

Andrea’s expertise and passion for health and well-being are contagious, so I knew I would enjoy her courses. She explained things so simply that I could immediately and quickly use her tips and tricks and build on them week after week. What I didn’t expect from her class was how these little changes in my everyday life would add up to create a big difference in how I feel in my body. I learned about the mind-gut connection, and slowly cleaning up my digestive system has left me with better mental health, more energy and looser clothes! I’ve taken dozens of health and nutrition classes before – but understanding how what I choose to eat will actually change my attitude and outlook on life has always been the missing piece. It feels so good to feel good – I wish I had learned this earlier in life.

I have taken two sessions so far with Best You Nutrition – Reset and 30 Days To Heal Your Gut. I love the format of the sessions where you learn about nutrition in the Zoom with other participants and then get specific info emailed to you such as foods to add or take out of your diet and goals to set. I like knowing ‘why’ I am doing something because it helps me to make it a long term habit. Andea is extremely knowledgeable, passionate and personable so it makes the courses enjoyable. I recommend the courses to all my family and friends!

I recently worked with Andrea for 6 months. My primary goals were to significantly reduce my IBS symptoms and to lose 8-10 lbs. I was able to implement most of the dietary changes (and there were a lot) without too much difficulty. I found the biggest difficulty was to plan each meal to reduce mindless eating. My IBS symptoms improved within the first 3 weeks. Less generalized gut pain, less diarrhea or constipation, and less bloating. Andrea was very helpful with meal suggestions and interesting ways to add more vegetables to my diet. She was even able to help me with my cookie “addiction”. I lost 5 lbs. during our 6 months together and have more energy. I am less concerned about losing another 5 lbs. as I’m much less distressed with bloating. Without Andrea’s help, I never would have changed my diet enough to experience any significant improvement in my IBS. If I follow her recommendations for cookie substitutes and count how many cookies I eat I will also lose another 5 lbs!! Andrea gave me the tools to be successful. Thanks Andrea!

I’m so happy that I found Andrea and Best You Nutrition!

My husband and I contacted Andrea when it became clear that if we wanted to avoid health issues as we age, we needed some guidance – we couldn’t just keep up the same eating and lifestyle habits that were fine when we were in our twenties.

Andrea was wonderful! After thoroughly discussing our history and our goals, she created a program tailored to our specific situation. We met every two weeks by phone to discuss how the changes we were making to our diet were making us feel and function. The improvements were noticeable; we felt healthier and had more energy as we went along. In each session, we would talk about the science behind why these changes were helping us, which helped to cement the new habits we were forming. Amongst other things, we learned which unexpected foods are hiding on ingredient labels, the power of greens and beans, and that problems can result from items in our diet that we might never have suspected!

We have now gone through two programs with Andrea. She is knowledgeable, and supportive and has a thousand creative ideas that helped to put us on a path to achieving our goals. The sessions were fun, informative, and effective, and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to improve their lives through nutrition! Thank you, Andrea!

Working with Andrea over the last six months has been life-changing. I came to her wanting to increase my endurance and recovery as an athlete and learn to build a healthy relationship with food. Her knowledge and expertise have exceeded my expectations and I can honestly say that I am happier, healthier, and crushing my goals with her help! I’m loving my increased energy, weight loss, and reduced brain fog and I will carry my lessons with her along for the rest of my life. I have already referred Andrea to my friend and I will continue to recommend her to anyone I
can. THANK YOU ANDREA!

Working with Andrea was a fantastic experience and I certainly gained a lot. I have been around wellness my whole life and was always under the impression I knew what I was doing. Over and above the ‘technical’ knowledge, Andrea is also a great coach who helps one keep on track and make a long-term change as opposed to an immediate change. This, I feel is the biggest difference, and at the end of the day is the reason why working with her is a must if you are looking for a complete lifestyle change!

I thoroughly enjoyed my nutrition adventure with Andrea! not only did she tackle my physical health but my mental health as well. I can honestly say my sleep patterns have drastically improved, my periods and hormone balance have improved, and most of all I am no longer taking antacids prescriptions which I had been over the last 18 years. I honestly think everyone can benefit from working with Andrea for their short and long-term health and happiness.

Andrea and I began working together on my health last summer. I was at a point of feeling completely defeated by exhaustion. I live with Hashimoto’s disease and I am in post menopause in my mid-40s. It was difficult for me to reach out for help because I “thought“ I had a handle on my nutrition. I was wrong. Andrea showed me what was missing in my diet through supportive advice and education. I learned so much and in every conversation, she left me with an a-ha moment and feeling motivated. Over 6 months Andrea helped me understand what my body and mind need to feel healthy and energized. She was adding good whole foods and fats to my lifestyle. Since completing her program I have better deeper sleep and feel energized and rested when I wake; I no longer have back or joint pain like I used to reduce my need for chiropractor adjusts from every few weeks to once every 3-4 months or as needed; I have reduced my Synthroid medication by half and feel amazing most days. Thank you Andrea- you have truly found your passion and I feel so lucky you helped me thrive again!

I asked Andrea to speak to my leadership team about focusing on a healthy body & mind for success. Andrea knocked it out of the park with an honest & interactive discussion on maintaining overall health. She provided tactical tips to improve our general wellbeing, combat stress and elevate our immunity. Andrea was a catalyst for some thought-provoking conversation that carried into the weeks after her presentation as my team reminded each other about practicing what they learned. Highly informed, straight up and with infectious energy, Andrea was the perfect speaker to round out our management meeting and give my managers the tools to have sustainable success at work and in their personal lives.

During my weight loss journey, I had the chance to learn what I needed to do to be successful from Andrea. You can feel that she’s passionate and she is very knowledgeable. I went from not having a clue where to start this journey, to being able to achieve PAST what my goal weight was. I lost 72 pounds in less than a year. There is no way I would have been able to do this without her. The funny thing is she doesn’t even realize what she actually did for me! She helped me truly get my life back. Thanks for your wisdom Andrea!

I would 100% recommend Andrea! I feel everyone would benefit from working with her for many reasons. She is inspiring, motivating and knowledgeable. She provided me a safe space to share, learn and grow. Andrea has discovered her passion and is one of the lucky few who has chosen a career that aligns with her dreams, belief system and core values. Before Andrea I thought I was, for the most part, healthy. I had tried everything for my anxiety and gut issues and thought my current state was unfixable. I couldn’t have been more wrong. My time with Andrea was sincerely life-changing. I now know what health, physically, mentally and emotionally, feels like and more importantly how to live my life feeling my best. If I were to put it simply, Andrea gave me my freedom back and I am grateful for that. Andrea is a God-sent. The last six months have been the best money spent in my entire life.

We used Andrea for a video/virtual informative session for our clients/prospects and friends. With not being able to see people face to face during covid, we wanted to offer something. Using Andrea was the perfect fit, as the last year has been very stressful on people, and the stress has taken a toll physically as well as emotionally. Andrea put together a session, that was split into two sections, with an opportunity for questions, between sessions and at the end. Andrea used language that was easy for people to understand and therefore making it a very open and comfortable dialogue. She spoke from experience and made it make sense in a nonjudgmental way. She provided follow up information, so those in attendance did not have to frantically write everything down and could listen and engage. I would recommend Andrea over and over, and if we have the opportunity to have her speak in the future we most certainly would.

I honestly think Andrea saved my life! After suffering from an autoimmune disease for over five years, my energy was depleted, my confidence was shot and I had gained about 60 pounds. She had such impressive knowledge of how food can really heal me and inspired me to put in the work to find myself again. In the first three months of working together, I lost almost 30 pounds, reduced my medications by half and felt like myself again! If you’re on the fence about having a nutrition coach… get off the fence and work with Andrea. She’ll change your life!

Thank You Andrea! I quite enjoyed the courses I have taken with you and learned a lot on foods and health that will benefit my health and quality of life into my future. I look forward to a healthier happier body.

Andrea gives information in a clear and concise way, that is easy to understand.  She speaks kindly with genuine passion and love for her topics and to her clients.  She offers options and suggestions in a way that makes you feel good and empowered!
