  1. Hi Abby, Amanda said that you know where to get whole milk from a farm. I’m keen to get hold of 4 to 5 litres a week if that is possible. Cheers Stu 022 343 681

  2. Good day,
    I got your email from a woman I work with. I am wanting to work with a nutritionist. After my son I put on alot of weight and have had hormonal imbalances, I have pcos and hypothyroidism, depression and anxiety. I have tried every type of diet to the current extreme one I am doing currently the hcg diet.

    I am always exhausted and don’t have that excitement for anything. I love food and I want to enjoy what I eat.

    • Hi kyla
      Thanks for your message. I’m sorry you have had a hard time with your health and weightloss. That exhaustion and lack of joy is likely due to the deprivation and hormone imbalance created by the HCG diet. Definitely not the direction we want to go in. There are many reasons people struggle to loose weight (generally 7 potential reasons). I’d need to go through your health history with you to determine the key factor for you that will unlock your weight and low energy concerns.
      If you’d like to make an appointment email me on nourishholistichealth@gmail.com
      Looking forward to helping you
      From

  3. Hi Abby,
    My cousin Jenna Harris recommended you! I’ve been having bad stomach issues for 6 months and my dr can’t get to the bottom of it. I was hoping you could help.
