Food isn't just fuel, it speaks to your biology!
Every bite you take is sending a message.

Some bites strengthen your body, sharpen your mind, and help you live longer.

Others bites of food could be quietly chipping away at your health.

Your health impact comes from knowing which foods help or hurt you and this is what I work on with clients.

Here's what one client said after working with me:

"Yetta helped me make lifestyle changes to my diet that I can sustain. Along the way I found out I needed to eliminate or limit specific foods due to how they affected my body in losing weight and in digestive issues. I never would have discovered this without her. The motivation and information I received from my meetings with Yetta was priceless."

Big News!

I’ve been keeping a little secret…
And I’m finally ready to share a bite-sized sneak peek with you…

👉 I’ve written a children’s book!

It’s called The Magical Journey of Benny the Bite — and it’s a fun, imaginative story that takes kids on an adventure inside the body to see what really happens after we take a bite of food.

The book will be ready for distribution this September, and over the next few weeks, I’ll be introducing you to Benny and his unforgettable friends as they teach kids (and grown-ups!) how amazing our bodies really are.

Stay tuned… Benny’s adventure is just beginning, and I can’t wait for you to meet him! ❤️

An interesting Dr. Greger presentation discussing eating a healthy diet vs. taking drugs for health.

In the video he mentions that when we have to decide whether we want to go the diet route versus more drugs, it’s not a choice between eating healthy to prevent a heart attack, or taking a pill to prevent a heart attack, because in 97% of cases the pills don’t do anything.

"We’re risking side effects from the drugs for nothing", he says.

"If we treat the underlying root cause of the disease, by eating a healthy diet, we may even reverse the progression of the disease."

If you are facing health challenges that won't get resolved, consider working with a certified functional nutrition counselor who can offer direction for meaningful diet intervention. I believe this is the a step in the right direction for results driven healthcare.

The medical profession oversells the benefits of drugs for chronic disease since so few patients would apparently take them if doctors divulged the truth.

Dr. Greger states in this presentation that X-rays released by CAT scanners might be twice as carcinogenic as the higher energy gamma rays released from the atomic bombs.

The best way to avoid the risks of radiation scans is living and eating healthy enough to help avoid the need for them in the first place.

Prevention is the best cure.

Pediatric CAT scans are estimated to cause hundreds of cancer deaths every year.

Feeling off?

Tired? Foggy? Achy?

You might not be getting old - you might just be dehydrated.

Your body is 70% water. Your brain? Also 70%. Even your bones hold water!

And yet most people still don’t drink enough of it.

Before you reach for another coffee or supplement, try this: pure, clean water. Your cells are begging for it.

Its weird how I’m constantly surprised by the passage of time when it’s literally the most predictable thing in the universe.

Worry and chronic stress aren’t just emotional states. They spark real, physical reactions in your body that, over time, can wear down your health:

Digestion slows because your body thinks it needs to flee, not digest.

Sleep suffers, which makes your body less resilient and more prone to illness.

Your immune system weakens, making you more susceptible to infections and slower to heal.

Inflammation increases, which can trigger or worsen a variety of chronic health issues, from heart disease to digestive disorders.

In short, worry doesn’t fix anything. It only hijacks your body’s healing systems and leaves you depleted.

Worry is one of those emotions we often justify as necessary. We say things like, “If I don’t worry, who will?” or “Worrying helps me prepare.” But let’s be honest: has worry ever truly solved a problem for you? What it does change – dramatically – is your health. The Cost of Carryin...
