Supporting Health and Wellness for More Than Two Decades

Nutrition & Family Wellness is a company that offers wellness and nutrition services for clients. Our goal is to provide you with the guidance you need to accomplish your journey towards a better, healthier lifestyle.

What We Do

We provide you with integrated knowledge and scientific nutritional principles, all of which are derived from technical, communicative, and critical sciences. Our goal is to give you the skills that will lead to self-reliance and self-actualization.

Our belief is that this knowledge will free you from false ideologies and dependence on others for your health and nutritional needs.

We acknowledge you as an expert and serve as your facilitator, incorporating and empowering an approach that allows you to reflect on your own culture, beliefs, religion, food preferences, and experiences so that you can control your own health journey.

Our Mission

My mission is based on the philosophy that every human being has the unalienable right and responsibility to reach and maintain optimal health within their own genetic makeup. Therefore, we are dedicated to the empowerment of persons as groups and individuals whereby they are able to become autonomous over their own health and social well-being.
