Your proactive heart health journey starts here
Watch this short video about my approachChances are...
you've read umpteen books and blogs, listened to a host of podcasts, maybe even tried and failed multiple diets, and you’re finally sick & tired (as well as confused & overwhelmed) by all the different health advice out there.
You want something that works for you, and you want it to be simple.
You need the easy button to help address your health.


Lovely to meet you.
I’m Karyn, a Functional Nutritionist & Natural Chef with 17+ years of experience helping people master the B.I.G.3 - Blood Sugar, Inflammation & Gastrointestinal health™ and turn their lives around, for good.
I specialize in proactive heart health - I help tired, professionals re-claim their energy, and feel confident they're making the best food & lifestyle choices to maximize healthspan, and minimize the need for medication.Â
My clients are used to 'crushing it' in their professional lives, so they're horrified when they get the equivalent of a 'D' grade from their doctor on their labs! Turns out those 'niggly' health issues, e.g., constipation, reflux, elevated blood sugar etc. really do need attention- I'm well equipped to help AND improve lab results too.

Testimonials

Nutrition is an integral part of what influences our health and healing, and Karyn truly understands this. With her boundless enthusiasm and contagious energy, Karyn is able to break down barriers and create a lasting positive change in eating habits. She will not make you count calories and calculate ratios of macronutrients, but guide you into being able to maintain a healthy and nourishing diet that tastes good. Over the past 2.5 years I have seen her change my patients' lives. They were able to lose weight and improve their health markers without giving up taste and their joy of eating. I highly recommend Karyn if you want an up-to-date and evidence-based, healthy and tasty approach to nutrition!
Kirsten Marcus, MD, PhD

I have known Karyn since I joined One Medical Group in November 2008. Karyn has seen a number of my patients with a variety of conditions ranging from diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, thyroid disease, fatigue, IBS and many other conditions. She collaborates closely with the naturopathic doctors, licensed acupuncturists and other integrative medicine providers. Working jointly we've had many successful lifestyle medicine interventions and kept our patients close to their optimum health, often without the need to add pharmacological interventions. Karyn helped them not only with the nutrition science knowledge based facts, day to day practical steps but also with coaching them and changing their behaviors on a deeper level. Her passion for the cause left a significant imprint in our patients' health.
