Testimonial

“I received a diagnosis of parasites from my Naturopathic doctor along with guidelines of what to eat and what to avoid. Ilana helped me seamlessly, compassionately, and with complete clarity shift my eating patterns in ways that I couldn’t have imagined were possible. With her foundational support and scaffolded guidance along the way, I have made lasting changes that are creating a new level of health and well-being in my life.”
