Intro Bio	I am a Holistic Health Practitioner with a Master of Nutrition degree from NC State and am Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition® and as a Lifestyle Medicine Professional. I am also an IIN Professional Health Coach, which ultimately helps facilitate the behavioral/lifestyle changes my clients are seeking. Being diagnosed with Celiac Disease as a child in 1986, food and health have been a big part of my life. This was the impetus for my work to help others attempt to live their healthiest and best lives through food and nutrition. I am here to meet other like-minded souls who want to help elevate others, and ourselves, to a higher state of being in order to live our highest and best lives. I have always combined the scientific with the esoteric and think that this is a wonderful platform for the two to finally meet and make the biggest impact.
Fun Fact!	I used to be the only female firefighter at my location back in the 90's and was training to be a powerlifter. I have also worked with animals for most of my life and love to work with animals with anxiety and/or health issues.

Reviews	Ashley Ducharme After spending hundreds of dollars visiting multiple doctors, alternative medicine practitioners, and naturopaths, I felt unheard. I wanted a skilled specialist to listen my particular health issue and not identify me as another generic case. Shanah listened to what I had to say before asking her own questions during every consultation. I had the impression that she was paying close attention and was genuinely interested in resolving my problems. Using various testing, nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments, we were able to identify my shortfalls and needs in order to get my health back on track. After working with her for about a year, I am back to my normal self and feeling fantastic. Thank you, Shanah!
