Hello! My name is Marianna Duba and I am a holistic nutritionist, a biochemist and a healthy lifestyle advocate. My mission is to inspire my clients to introduce eating habits and a lifestyle that helps them in achieving vibrant health. Prior to my interest in natural nutrition, I worked in the field of molecular biology and earned my Master of Science degree in Biochemistry from Queen’s University in Kingston. My interest in holistic nutrition developed while looking for the causes of my son’s health problems. His symptoms indicated he had suffered from exercise induced asthma, however they gradually subsided after I changed his diet and removed the offending foods he was sensitive to. Overcoming my son's respiratory problems as well as the positive changes I achieved in my family’s and friends’ health conditions made me realize the impact that a clean whole food-based eating has on our body. I decided to study holistic nutrition and graduated from the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition in 2012. |
In my nutritional counselling, I specialize in supporting gut health as many of our chronic conditions, whether they are physiological or psychological, originate in compromised gut function. To extend my knowledge in nutritional support for gut healing, I had been trained in the GAPS Nutritional Program by Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride and became a certified GAPS Practitioner in 2014.
I am passionate about the holistic lifestyle. I often shop at the local farmers' market and prepare meals for my family from scratch. Along healthy eating, physical activity is also an essential part of my lifestyle. My husband and I go power walking every day, but I also love cross-country skiing, hiking and swimming.
Seeing my clients thriving and feeling invigorated makes me happy and keeps me motivated to continue my nutritional coaching journey!
