Erika Herman - Certified Nutritional Consultant & Holistic Health Expert
To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.
—François de La Rochefoucauld

     I see the body not as a mystery to be feared, but as an infinitely wise teacher we must learn to understand. I view the cultivation of such an understanding as a profoundly gratifying art that requires patience and dedication, and find great joy in empowering those I work with to master this art.
       I'm a straight-shooter and help my clients to find what's right for them from the often overwhelming ocean of conflicting health information out there. I base my suggestions only in peer-reviewed scientific research, not bandwagon hype (you'd be surprised what really is bandwagon hype!).
        My approach is practical and integral.
 I do not believe in rigidity or deprivation. I believe in the power, flavor, and endless possibilities of whole, unprocessed foods.  I believe eating should be not just healthy, but delicious and pleasurable. I believe everyone is unique, and true nutritional wisdom lies not in strictly adhering to a set dietary model, but in learning to listen to our bodies’ needs and respond, based on our own ever-changing, cause-and-effect-bound constitutions--physical, emotional, psychological, moral, ethical and/or spiritual.                  
        Good health is about finding balance, increasing awareness, and improving quality of life--not feeling boxed in. I work closely with my clients to tailor-make healthy and savory nutritional programs that suit their lifestyles and goals.
