Fearlessness is not the absence of fear, but the mastery of it - it's about getting up one more time than we fall down (Huffington/ Writer)

I am a Nutritionist (RD) specializing in Medicinal Nutrition & Biopsychology

I specialize in how to use nutrition in regard to treating and preventing lifestyle diseases and various inflammatory illnesses. I have vast experience with medicinal nutrition and nutrigenomics: basically how nutrition activates our genes.
This has led me to work with nutrition and its medicinal uses in broader contexts such as how nutrition affects our brain chemistry and can be used in dealing with addictions, eating disorders and the neurologically imbalances associated.

My understanding of brain chemistry and nutrigenomics has made me take initiative to develop guidelines and projects, focusing on how to better traditional cognitive treatment results in combination with using the right nutritional approach to support the patient's brain chemistry and thus lessening withdrawal symptoms and cravings overall.
My last work project focusing on the "nutrition-as-medicine" concept resulted in a book I co-authored (released in Denmark, as I am dual citizen: Danish/American).

The combination of focusing on behavioral aspects and barriers together with implementing a personalized diet working for the client's brain chemistry has - through my work experience - shown to reap maximum results, no matter what the initial aim of the intervention.

I am currently developing a skin care range based on nutritional knowledge. The basic idea behind the concept stems from the fact that our largest organ, that is our skin, "eats" what we apply to it, and thus eventually enters our system and is used for building blocks similar to the nutrients in our diet.
