I don't even know where to begin…read more I came to see Maha a couple years ago complaining of severe bloating, abdominal pain and diarrhea. We met to go over my symptoms more carefully and potential reasons for this constant discomfort. Maha recommended food allergy testing to see if my symptoms were related to something I was eating, which made sense in my mind since it was stomach-related. So I did the test, left her office, and waited for the IgG food allergy results. Including the consultation and allergy test, I owed about $500 after our first meeting. I was so desperate I didn't even care. I am a student, clearly don't have a lot of money, but I felt it was my only option so I was willing to pay anything. A couple weeks later I received an e-mail of my results. I opened the document and was shocked. According to this report, I was basically allergic to everything: gluten, dairy, eggs and even random food like bananas! If anyone is interested I can send you my report. It is shocking. After reviewing the results on my own I returned to meet Maha. She confirmed the test results and said i should ELIMINATE all of these food that I was "highly allergic" too. I followed her recommendation (being so desperate for help from my discomfort) hoping that drastically altering my diet would provide me with some relief. Initially meeting Maha at 105 pounds (5'8) I was very slim from the constant bloating which suppressed by appetite. I followed Maha's recommendations for nearly a year hoping it would help over time. It didn't. Needless to say, I deprived myself from several food groups hoping to eliminate my symptoms but they still persisted. I never saw Maha during this year because I couldn't afford it. Months later, at 95lbs, I needed help. My family was concerned for my health because I continued to lose weight. I ended up seeing a new GP in Toronto, who told me that food allergy testing is "invalid". When I heard this, I was in shock. There I was with my 3pg report showing him all the foods that I am allergic too and he told me that this form of food allergy testing is basically "not scientifically supported". I had no idea about this, taking Maha's words that the test was valid. See other stories if interested: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/health-and-fitness/tests-for-food-allergies-sensitivities-a-waste-of-money-doctor-says/article535082/ My GP told me to start reintroducing these foods, in order to help broaden my diet and help me gain back weight. He also noted something that Maha had never emphasized before, this being "the mind-body connection". To make a long story shorter, my abdominal discomfort and constant diarrhea was the result of chronic anxiety, not food allergies. Now taking Zoloft, my symptoms have subsided. I am gaining weight back and am able to participate in normal everyday activities that I used to miss out on because I was constantly ill. Maha did not inform me about the validity of food allergy testing. Being so desperate for answers, I took her word for it and literally deprived myself of essential food groups. I basically paid Maha hundred of dollars for her to misinform me, and ruin a year of my life.

I appreciated her warmth and compassion, along with her high professionalism and competency. Maha Nasr is a licensed nutritionalist. However, her medical degree from a renowned school and her experience as a physician set her apart. She stresses she is not practicing as a physician and does not prescribe medications. I highly recommend Maha Nasr and her stance that proper nutrition can turn around health conditions that pharmaceuticals fail to prevent or cure. S. Zikry, Ph.D.

I love Jessica! I've been seeing her twice a week since the beginning of the year. I haven't been…read moregreat about doing a lot of healthy stuff and exercising outside of seeing her, truthfully. But I see the difference. After only twice a week. She works with where you are that day and is able to do that on the fly. Your middle aged random whatever ache is flaring up, we can deal with that! I am leaner and i see the muscle definition that I haven't seen in awhile, living through an extremely high stress job and the pandemic and not really taking care of myself. She also has an app where she can put your extra workouts or morning stretching routine or whatever you need. I reached out to a number of trainers when I was looking for someone and she was the first one I actually met with in person. And I knew she was my person. I didn't meet with anyone else. And I have worked with a lot of trainers at various places in my life and fitness regime. She was my trainer. I knew when I met her. You will probably get more than your money's worth if you go to Jessica. She genuinely cares and will put effort into extra research on what you are going through or giving you programs to do on your own. She will give you as much or as little extra support as you need. She is also a genuinely good human I enjoy seeing. So definitely reach out to her if you are looking for a trainer!

She's knowledgeable and creative and doesn't push anything so far that you can't move the next day or that you'll hurt yourself. She's also great at working around injuries if that's a concern. I've referred two others to her who only have great things to say as well.

I had the initial consultation with Julie, and right away I could see that she's very supportive & helpful. She doesn't try to give you a fixed diet plan but understands what you need and want. She also makes sure that she teaches you the right way to think about nutrition rather than just counting or limiting calories. All the rest of my sessions have been with Lyndsay. She is a ROCKSTAR!! I am very happy with the guidance and support I have been getting from her since last year. She is very warm, friendly, patient, knowledgeable, always gives great suggestions and tweaks on what eating habits to change or improve on. Specifically, since I'm Indian and do a lot of Indian food, Lyndsay was able to equip me with tips and tricks on what serving sizes to have, what food swaps to make, snacking habits etc to make sure that I could see huge improvements. This is huge since it was very customized and I never had to stop eating any food group or my favourite foods. The best part about Lyndsay is that she always explains the why behind her suggestions which helps me truly learn nutrition and makes it easier to build habits and see results. Lyndsay is always there for you with her knowledge and guidance to make sure that you have everything you need. I highly highly recommend Lyndsay & Julie to anyone who's tired of random dieting and needs help to make a lifestyle change and see results!

I cannot emphasize how much improvement I've seen as a direct result of incorproating the knowledge from my sessions with Lyndsay. My symptoms are under control, I feel less fatigued, I have more energy and I actually enjoy eating now. I appreciate that Lyndsay's always answered my questions thoroughly and in a manner that's clear and easy to understand. I also appreciate that despite our cultural differences, she had a vast working knowledge on spices, herbs and ingredients my households traditionally uses. Most impressive is her knowledge pertaining to my specific health condition (which is a bit complex). I strongly recommend JM Nutrition and not only because Lyndsay is brilliant and clearly invested in your health but also because Julie, owner/operator, is very pleasant to work with as well.

My daughter and I have been clients of Suzanne for many years (since 2006 for sure), and have been…read morelearning a lot from her on how to better manage our health issues, as well as how to prevent illness in general. Suzanna is special for three reasons. First, she masters a range of fields of knowledge addressing health: from holistic nutrition and body care, to homeopathy, Chinese medicine and acupuncture (for instance). Secondly, Suzanna uses what best suits your health issue, either one technique, or a number of them combined. And third, and I think the most important, is that you have a say in your treatment. This means that Suzanne respects her clients' wishes, limitations and preferences; recognizing and empowering you as the most important person to promote your own health. We could not be happier with the results, and that is why we strongly recommend Suzanne as your naturopath!

I was very skeptical upon my first first well over a year ago, but half way through our discussion I was at ease. This is quite the feat as I am a very tightly wound individual who works in a high stress field. Suzanne was able to put me on a plan that fit my schedule as well as help me to develop much healthier habits to aid in my health. I have had difficulty with my energy levels as well as my sleep for over a decade. In less than a full 12 months Suzanne helped raise my energy level and most importantly through tintures (which I actually enjoyed!) SHE HAS FIXED MY SLEEP.This was something no doctor had been able to do. I had been to countless specialists and sleep clinics. Suzanne is very caring and helpful beyond words. I have heard of many alternative medicine practitioners and naturopaths that continually tell you to take pills, herbs and to visit them regularly without much explanation. Some not even telling you what is in the things you are given . Suzanne is forth coming about everything she suggests and goes into great detail on why it will be helpful. She does not have you come in repeatedly for unnecessary appointments just to make money. She truly cares about her clients and it shows in all she does. If I could rate her more stars I would! She is definately a leader in her field.
