Healthy By Nature Nutrition and Consulting (5411 Spring Garden) opened November 17. Owner Erika Duggan, a personal trainer and nutritionist, believes firmly in empowering people to improve their lives through knowledge, food and lifestyle.
“Your body has an amazing ability to heal itself if you just give it some basic attention,” says Duggan. “I provide weekly one on onenutrition and fitness consulting for people who mainly want to lose weight, but the program is also beneficial for individuals with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes or low energy.”
Duggan offers a complimentary initial consultation. Afterwards she offers personalized menus and handouts based on any allergies, dislikes, medications, etc. Healthy By Nature is founded on eating whole local foods, a diet that supports individual nutritional goals, food that begs health not guilt, quality food and exercise.
