INTEGRATIVE NUTRITION FOR *YOU*, WITH RACHELLE MARQUEZ, WED. MAY 22 AT 6 PM

On Wed., May 22 at 6 pm, Rachelle Marquez, a leading practitioner of integrative nutrition, will share with us an exciting aspect of dietary choices known as ‘integrative nutrition.’ It’s not just about eating the recommended number of fruits and vegetables each day or counting calories. Instead, integrative nutrition looks at ways to heal the whole person through food, vitamins, minerals, dietary and herbal supplements, movement and more.

Rachelle explains it this way:

“Most approaches to healthy eating dwell on calories, carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Instead of creating lists of restrictions and good and bad foods, I coach my clients to explore basic improvements and implement gradual changes during our work together. As these pieces accumulate, my clients find these changes collectively creating a much larger impact than they originally anticipated. We work on what they want to improve within the circumstances of their unique situation.”

Rachelle will share a WEALTH of information with us, including, the integrative nutrition plate, primary foods, secondary foods, the circle of life, balance, goals, relationships, spirituality, physical activity . . . all focused on helping YOU be your optimal self!

Rachelle has studied with some of the biggest names in the field of holistic nutrition, including Joshua Rosenthal, founder and director of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, Walter Willett, MD, DrPH, chair of nutrition at Harvard Universit7, Andrew Weil, MD, director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine, Gabrielle Bernstein, bestselling author and life coach, Susan Blum, MD, MPH, assistant clinical professor at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Mark Hyman, MD, founder of The UltraWellness Center, Geneen Roth, bestselling author and expert on emotional eating, David Wolfe, raw food leader and nutrition expert, Marion Nestle, PhD, MPH, professor at New York University’s Department of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health, Mark Bittman, food writer for The New York Times and bestselling author and Joel Fuhrman, MD, family physician and leading expert on nutritional healing.
