"She literally changed my life. I have not felt this good in over five years."
I found Andrea on Facebook when I was searching for a nutritionist and what caught my eye is that she heals your body with food. I personally was looking for the most natural way of healing possible. I started to see Andrea and she literally changed my life. I was having a lot of health problems with digestion and swelling of the body and heart episodes that were so bad I was on a beta blocker to keep my heart at a lower BPM. She got me off of dairy and we figured out that dairy was causing a lot of my inflammation and heart episodes along with stomach issues. I was then able to get off my beta blocker which I had been on since 2013. This was HUGE! We also found that soy was a major factor in me feeling nauseous most of the time. I had been tested for many different things and found that I also have Celiac Disease and had to go completely certified gluten free which is different from gluten free. I was able to drop down in weight but most importantly I finally felt better emotionally and physically. If it was not for going to see Andrea I would still be feeling sick on the reg and that is so draining on the body and your emotional state. I have not felt this good in over 5 years. Thank you Andrea! You were my life saver! If you are having issues with your body and state of mind there is a really good chance it could be caused by the food you are eating. Make your appointment with Andrea so she can guide you in the right direction to a healthier and happier you!

"Working with Andrea was hands down one of the best decisions I could have made...She was the first to take the time to listen to my problems."
Working with Andrea was hands down one of the best decisions I could have made for my health. I’ve suffered from gastrointestinal issues for about seven years now...after receiving a diagnosis of celiac disease about four years ago, I had some relief for about seven months after removing gluten entirely from my diet. However, the symptoms I was experiencing resurfaced about two years ago and continued to gradually worsen. The worst symptom of mine by far was painful and constant bloating. I decided to seek out a gastroenterologist again and was diagnosed with SIBO. The traditional treatment for this condition is an antibiotic Xifaxin, which gave me zero relief. I had done a lot of research on herbal treatments, which I much preferred to try, but my doctor was incredibly dismissive of the option. Feeling lost, uncomfortable and in need of some type of guidance, I decided to start seeing a holistic nutritionist, Andrea. First and foremost, she herself suffers from celiac disease, which immediately made me feel comfortable. After a lot of trial and error, and many months of protocols and elimination diets, I am finally feeling the best I have in a while. Of course I have Andrea to thank for the treatment, but what truly made this experience so helpful for me is the fact that she was the first to take the time to listen to my problems. Never once did I feel dismissed or that I had to prove my condition, something I unfortunately have experienced with a handful of practitioners. Additionally, I have a history of disordered eating which makes this whole gut healing thing that much more complicated. Andrea went above and beyond, communicating with my therapist and forming a protocol that took into account my past relationship with food. Lastly, every visit I felt as if I was stopping in to catch up with a friend! She is truly one of the most genuine people I have had the pleasure of meeting in Buffalo. If you are even slightly considering making an appointment, this is your sign to do it!

"I went from feeling lost and discouraged to being full of...hope. I walk tall again, confident with my new knowledge and healthier..."
"Two years ago I met Andrea at a meeting for board members of the WNY Gluten Free Support Group. I was impressed with her knowledge on a nutritional level of celiac disease and the whole body connection. I asked her to take me on as a client to help me with some issues I was having with my health and celiac disease side effects. I’d been gluten free for a few years but still having issues.
We began to meet for our sessions and I was totally impressed by her approach to helping me through a complete study of my food intake, sleeping, medical background, habits, etc through questioners and talking. She wanted to get a true understanding of me so she could best help me. I went from feeling lost and discouraged about dealing with this disease to being full of new approaches to think about, recipes and hope. I could have cried with relief and joy.
Andrea takes a personal interest in your health and helping you. I’m proud to say with Andrea’s help, the UTI’s that I was getting every other month have not reoccurred since we’ve been working together, with her direction. She has me on a wonderful probiotic that targets this problem and she also has me very aware of keeping my sugar intake low to keep the candida down in my body. I have now also stopped using dairy under her suggestion, which was really adding to my problems, but she gave me excellent alternatives to try that satisfy me. Now, I rarely have an episode of gastrointestinal problems. I walk tall again, confident with my new knowledge and healthier because of some adjustments to my diet. Thank you Andrea for your personal guidance. I am forever grateful!"

"My digestion improved, I have more energy, and I generally feel better and less hungry."
"Consulting with Andrea was one of the best investments for my health that I’ve made. She is extremely knowledgeable about special diets, including gluten-free, dairy-free, Feingold and anit-inflammatory diets, as well as about supplements and pro-biotics. I also learned how to better avoid the chemicals found in so many foods nowadays. I was able to eliminate some processed foods that I had thought were more healthy than they really were. As a result, my digestion improved, I have more energy, and I generally feel better and less hungry."
