“We were never designed to eat processed and refined foods, so we are seeing an increase in the number and type of autoimmune diseases.
Our body needs essential minerals and vitamins to create energy and build immunity – this must come from our food, lifestyle and environment. But there’s a big problem. So much of our food is created in a way that makes it devoid of essential minerals and vitamins. When we understand exactly where our food comes from, we are able to nourish our bodies rather than feeding ourselves sick. We have seen hundreds of students eliminate their sickness symptoms, lose weight and gain energy. For the first time ever, our students started to see what real health felt like. Our health and wellbeing really is in our hands. It is our responsibility to take care of ourselves and the next generation to come. The Nutrition Academy is a tool to help you prevent disease and find happiness, strength and health.
Join me in creating a ripple effect that will see our world become healthier and happier”. Cyndi O’Meara.
