Debi Cox

Nutrition Network Advisor

Southampton, UK

Hi my name is Debi Cox I am a fitness teacher and owner of a Debi Cox Health and Wellness. At the end of 2018 I observed two good friends, one of them is a nurse, embark on a Low Carb/ Healthy Fat/ Keto way of eating. Their body shape started to change and they lost weight but what I really noticed was they ate the most amazing food (nicer than mine) and had increased energy levels………. Who doesn’t want to eat great food, lose weight and have more energy?? I wasn’t really overweight but since starting my menopause I had increased fat around my stomach and definitely had brain fog!!!  I had accepted these things and thought it was part of the process my body was going through and there was nothing I could do about it. I adopted the eating plan with caution as it turned everything I’d ever been taught about food/eating on its head. Very quickly I started to feel amazing……it felt like my brain fog had cleared, my energy levels soared, I started to lose weight and my body shape began to change all of this whilst eating the nicest food ever !!! I have never felt so well and I realised that I wanted to share this with as many people as possible. I took the decision in January 2020 to qualify as a Low Carb/ High Fat Adviser with the Nutrition Network . I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I have ever made……….now it’s time to share all that I have learnt!

Not only did I lose the extra weight, I got back to performing at my best. Throughout the process of adapting to this lifestyle change, I discovered my passion for health and wellness. I decided to venture down this path to learn more and get more involved. Since 2017 I have been enriching my education, taking numerous courses and studying with the best.

Estrelita van Rensburg

Edinburgh, Scotland, UK

I trained as a medical doctor in South Africa and subsequently worked as a researcher and lecturer of medical students at several universities in South Africa. Following my academic career, I joined the pharmaceutical industry in the UK as a Global Medical Director, which enabled me to travel and work with medical professionals in several major international hubs. However, due to the stressful work environment I was exposed to, I realised the importance of preventative medicine, rather than rely on the treatment of disease symptoms, which is the current standard medical care globally. My own personal research covered the most common diseases of today (e.g. obesity, diabetes, heart disease and dementia) where I discovered that it was the importance of nutrition and in particular the LCHF and Keto diets rather than medication which was the key to a healthy lifestyle. This led me to The Nutrition Network where I studied LCHF and Keto diets in depth. I changed my diet to that healthy way of life, massively improving my own and my partner’s health. I would like to help you take ownership of your own health by teaching you how to implement a healthy nutrition programme and can be contacted on email: [email protected]; mobile +44(0)7535259809; website www.wellnesseq.co.uk or Facebook @wellnesseq.

Frank Zweedijk

The Netherlands

Frank has been been working as an osteopath for over 25 years. Improving the motion within the human body enhances the flow of blood and other fluids and optimises neurological function resulting in enhancement of the self-healing potency of the body. This system only works when the right food is consumed and the hormonal function of the body is optimal. As an osteopath, he received limited education in nutrition. Looking into the scientific dietary data, his interest in the low carb high-fat diet was triggered. He switched his personal diet from high carb living to the very low carb, high fat ketogenic diet combined with intermittent fasting and has been in ketosis for over a year now. He experienced lower inflammation in the gut and joints, mental improvements, better recovery after training, better sleep and more energy. Stimulated by the positive personal experiences and the vast amount of scientific back up he has implemented nutritional advice in his osteopathic treatment. As a result of his advice, more and more patients are switching to a low carb high-fat lifestyle with very good results. Contact by e-mail: [email protected]

Ioana Bichut

Nutrition Network Advisor

Montreal, QC, Canada

I have fought many health battles in my life. In 2018 I adopted the intermittent fasting and LCHF diet and I experienced tremendous benefits. I feel better now in my 50s than in my 30s. No one expects to get better as time goes by! I read and researched extensively to understand the science behind those amazing results. My experience had a strong impact on my relatives and friends. In adopting my lifestyle and following my advice, they succeeded in not only losing weight but also in curing or improving very serious health conditions as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, asthma, aortic valve stenosis. Having been able to help people who suffer so much gave me a strong drive to learn more and give hope to people who cannot be healed by mainstream medicine. The NN Advisor Training provided me with the right tools to help more people.

John R. Cripps MD FRCSC (Emeritus)

Toronto, ON, Canada

In university I studied a double major; physiology and biochemistry (BSc). Serendipitously I enrolled in medical school, began an internal medicine residency and subsequently worked as an emergency room physician in a trauma centre while sharing a family practice. I returned to complete an ophthalmology residency and spent 3 decades treating thousands of diabetics, macular degeneration patients and numerous other pathologies. I now have a better understanding for the proximate cause, resulting in the tsunami, of 22,000+ patients I struggled to attend to in my solo rural practice. Like other physicians trained in the allopathic model of medicine, prevention and nutrition, occupied precious few hours in the curriculum. Understanding the role of insulin resistance in " modern diseases of Western civilization" has allowed better skepticism, on my behalf, when evaluating "ingrained in stone medical dogma" pushed over the last 4 decades while vilifying any scientist who dared challenge conventional "expert opinion". Over my medical career I insisted that all support healthcare workers and patients call me by my first name. I enjoyed teaching medical students, residents, medical colleagues and nurses; basically anyone who showed an interest in education; I thrive on being a lifelong learner.

Karen Magallanes

Maple Ridge, BC, Canada

After reading the Art and Science of Low carb Living in 2013 I began my own journey of weight loss and better health. Since that time I've been submerged in learning about diet and lifestyle. My career as an RN began in 1997. My focus since 2002 has been in nephrology and hemodialysis and I have seen first hand the devastation Type 2 diabetes can cause. When a friend was diagnosed with T2D I accompanied her to the classes offered by our local health authority and was appalled at what was being taught. Armed with new information from Professor Tim Noakes and Dr Jason Fung's books confirmed in my head what was wrong with the way these classes were telling people how to manage their diabetes. I knew sharing this information could stop people from ending up on dialysis because of T2D. My career needed to change direction and prevention was going to be it! My path to becoming a diabetic educator began with some formal diabetes education required by my employer and almost ended immediately when I was told by my colleagues not to discuss low carb despite patients asking about it. When I recommended Dr Fung's books to my patients as a resource I thought I might be asked to leave. It was this moment I realized my lofty goals of sharing my cutting edge knowledge was rather naive. Clearly I was not going to be a good fit to teach diabetes education if I couldn’t give low carb, keto, fasting or any other options that were not in line with the current guidelines. The public is becoming aware of other options and my goal is to bring those options to them not hide them. More recently my research has been looking at diet as a therapeutic tool in other autoimmune and metabolic issues since I have seen remarkable healing in myself for same. I’m certain with my experience living LCHF and fasting I’m an expert in weight loss (100lbs) and I continue to dive down many rabbit holes in search of new information studies and anything that will keep me up to date. I am passionate about spreading the word and sharing what I have learned with others particularly with other health care providers so they too can help their patients understand that our lifestyle and what we eat or not eat can truly bring better health.

I have started keto and am having great success. I am still a work in progress but have found something I am truly passionate about. I have read, watched videos, talked with MD's and have surrounded myself with like minded people. I realize now that I have knowledge that can actually change lives and help people reverse their chronic illness.

Liz Ford

Timaru, New Zealand

Liz is a nutritionist and dietitian and has been working in this field in New Zealand for over 25 years. She says that she chose this career as she has always believed that what we eat determines our health and well-being. Her goal has been to support both her family and her clients with eating well to gain and maintain their health. Nutrition science and practice is changing and she is excited to be able to offer clients guidance in this new way of eating. The latest science supports the importance of eating whole real foods. In a way this isn’t new but very similar to how humans would have eaten centuries ago. One of the biggest challenges we face in today’s health environment is the growing problem of obesity, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. These are the common concerns of her clients. It has become clear that our standard diet for dealing with these issues (low fat and high grains and carbohydrates) is not working. We also now know that recommending this low fat diet with an increase in cardio exercise is not helpful for most people, and does not help them gain health or lose weight. She now recommends an approach that is based on eating whole real foods and is generally lower in carbohydrates and higher in healthy fats (LCHF). Liz advocates avoiding all highly processed foods and foods and drinks that are high in sugars. The best foods for us are those grown locally, are in season and have as little processing as possible. She encourage her clients to cook their own food at home and grow their own vegetables where possible. Both myself and my family have found many health benefits since changing to LCHF.

In 2017 she completed the Banting Coach training and became very passionate about the ketogenic diet and LCHF lifestyle.

Because of this success more and more of her colleagues became interested in this ketogenic therapy. A frequently asked question was “Where did you do your training?” and “Is there a training in Dutch?”. After following more courses on the ketogenic diet, Louisette set up the first training for professionals in Dutch called “Ketogene Therapie”, which started in 2020. She is also an ambassador for the Nutrition Network and offers their courses on her platform as well. Her main focus now is building her company Ketogeen Instituut Nederland and making it a platform where healthcare professionals and laypeople can find suitable and reliable information and programmes on the ketogenic diet and lifestyle. She also coaches patiënts with different kinds of metabolic problems to switch to a ketogenic diet. The goal is to rid The Netherlands (and Belgium) of Western diet-related diseases.

I hold a BSc in Cell Biology from the University of Kansas, a Diploma in Advanced Studies in Biochemistry from University of Paris VII – Jussieu, and a MSc in Biotechnology Studies from the University of Maryland University College. I worked for more than 2 decades in the multinational pharmaceutical industry at several management positions. After retiring from the pharma sector, I decided to explore the field of wellness and health coaching. In exploring this new field, I discovered the LCHF lifestyle by experimenting with this methodology on my twenty years plus of uncontrolled diabetes type 2. After a few months on the LCHF lifestyle, I was able to experience normal glycemia values, significant weight loss, feeling more energetic, and increased mental acuity. Currently, I have attained diabetes reversal and dropping off of all but one of the diabetes medicines I had been taking for more than 20 years. Since I have lived through the process of achieving ketosis and reaped the health and mental benefits of it, I decided to concentrate my coaching practice on supporting customers that struggle with blood sugar control, weight management and health conditions associated to insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome spectrum. I practice coaching as a freelance practitioner both in person and remotely. I can be contacted at [email protected] or at 1 (301) 200-5563 (USA) or 1 (242) 376-9921 (Bahamas).

Siobhan Mccoulough

Devon, UK

Having worked in health care for over 20 years and in the NHS for 18 in the UK as a Tissue Viability Specialist Nurse. The Skin is the largest organ of the body and I have seen the direct correlation in poor diet to negative tissue regeneration and wound healing. Personally having been a yo-yo dieter (as many nurses can be, got to eat on the run) while studying 2 degrees, raising a son, and working, I piled on the pounds. With every new diet tried, the weight would eventually creep back again. Having discovered the benefits of the low carb, healthy fat way of eating a few years ago, I’ve quickly found this WOE improving my digestive, lethargy, and adult acne issues and improved my mental health. As I am one of the registered nurses to have studied the LCHF for Nurses by the Nutrition Network, and I’m very excited to offer my services as a coach to help patients achieve healthier lifestyles and/or weight loss goals and their skin condition.

Sofie Van Steenberghe

Roosdaal, Belgium

Sofie is a Keto/Low-Carb nutritionist and lifestyle coach. In her teens, she was diagnosed with IBS and had been suffering from it ever since. Traditional diet didn’t solve her problems, so she started doing her own research which eventually lead her to the Low-Carb / Ketogenic lifestyle she has been living since 2012. She is a strong believer of the ‘lifestyle medicine’ approach and her own experience of how appropriate food and lifestyle improved her health, made her decide to make a career switch. She went from being an interior architect to a nutritionist, where she now helps people change their bodies and lives into a new improved version. She is dedicated to spreading the word of the low-carb / Ketogenic lifestyle not only in Belgium, but everywhere she can. The first step in her career switch was a traditional nutrition education. (2013) Followed by becoming a certified Banting Coach in 2018. In 2019 she completed the Advanced Ketogenic Nutrition course from the ANA and now, in 2020 also completed the LCHF for Dietitians program from the Nutrition Network. Her goal is to help as many people as possible to change their lives for the best by providing them with the right information and teaching them the ‘how and why’ of the LCHF/ketogenic lifestyle. That is one of the reasons why she keeps educating herself. She wants to be aware of the newest science and research, so she can improve her skills to help people not only by changing their eating habits, but by changing their lifestyle. She plans on giving lectures in schools and at conferences because she believes that the ‘educators’ in schools, as well as the health care professionals should be much more informed of what can be achieved witch the LCHF / Ketogenic lifestyle and that food really is medicine. Only when we educate / provide our children with the right information (about food and lifestyle), we can make the biggest change for the future.

Teresa Mealy

Missouri, USA

I graduated with my Master’s Degree in nursing from the University of South Florida in 2004 and began working as a Nurse Practitioner specializing in migraine management. Our family moved to Missouri in 2012 and it was then that I began having my own health issues that caused me to take notice. I was gaining weight, irritable, not enjoying life, and basically felt like I was going crazy. I was never one that was comfortable prescribing a lot of medications and I often looked into more natural remedies. However, being traditionally trained, I never realized the extent of research and treatments out there supporting natural treatment options. In 2013 I found a Doctor who helped me with hormone replacement for myself. Within 3 months I was feeling so much better. In fact, better than I had felt in my 20’s! I felt like I had to shout this stuff from the rooftops. I immersed myself in the studies and literature relating to bio-identical hormone replacement (BHRT). I talked about it with whoever would listen. My life, professionally and personally, was transformed and I was forever grateful for being put through “the storm” in order to figure things out. In 2015 I began BHRT training through Worldlink Medical. I am currently advanced certified in BHRT through Worldlink Medical. I am also currently taking courses at the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM). All of this training further solidified my belief that we need to get away from “band-aid” medications and instead rely on our bodies to heal themselves by replacing what is missing with natural preparations. I opened my own practice in 2016 to specialize in BHRT and to save the world, one patient at a time.

Tessa Kleinsmith

Nutrition Network Advisor

Cape Town, South Africa

In 2015 I graduated Cum Laude from UNISA with a BA (Health Sciences and Social Services) in Psychological Counselling, focusing on Pastoral Counselling; and I am now also a proud graduate of the new Nutrition Network Advisor Programme. I recently spent a few years living in the Middle East and I gained invaluable experience there on how the LCHF lifestyle can be adapted to work within the local food culture. I believe that the path to healing the whole person is multidimensional. Besides the physical and mental healing that the LCHF and Carnivore lifestyle provides, there is a spiritual side to healing as well – which is particularly relevant to anyone who has experienced any traumatic loss or event. I am based in Cape Town’s Deep South and I can be contacted at: [email protected]

Thomas Guarinoni

Québec, QC, Canada

Hi! I'm a French clinical nurse in an expanded role (for Inuit’s nation northern Canada), graduated in 2005. I had the chance to travel the world the last several years to go mainly to meet the first nations in Central Africa, Polynesia, Australia, the Caribbean and finally in all of Quebec; from James Bay to Ungava Bay via Abitibi and the North Shore. Everywhere, I was able to learn from their pathologies and especially study the changes in their eating habits. I began to apply my nutritional discoveries and learning (from Dr. J.FUNG) to myself, first and then to some of my patients. Different eating styles interested me, including paleo, ketogenic and low carbohydrate. When I realized that the official recommendations went against ancestral common sense, I joined the team at Dr. Bourdua-Roy's Reversa clinic to finally help my patients, supported by doctors with the same vision of health. After having been the main nurse of the clinic and having carried out more than 3000 patient follow-ups, I decided to take my studies further, in particular, by taking the CKNS (Certified Ketogenic Nutrition Specialist) from the American Nutrition Association, the Diet Doctor Postgraduate Institute for Medicine Classes and the Nurse Certification from Prof Tim Noakes’s, Nutrition Network. Thanks to my French culture and passion for cooking, in addition to my nursing career, I was also able to learn and work in different restaurants around the world. Since 2019, I have been studying traditional Chinese medicine.  I have been studying its secular principles for several years, in particular, Chinese therapeutic food and now acupuncture.

Amanda Decker

Tennessee, USA

Amanda graduated from Vanderbilt University School of Nursing in 2005, and has practiced in Middle Tennessee delivering primary care since that time. She enjoyed helping her clients of all ages with their health care needs. However, by 2015 despite following all the guidelines and recommendations, she became aware that she was managing and chasing diseases. No one seemed to be getting healthier. That’s when she decided to truly help her patients, she needed to focus on reversing and preventing disease. The one thing that affected all other health conditions was nutrition. Expanding her focus on weight management, in 2019 she obtained a Certificate of Advanced Education from the Obesity Medicine Society, and became SCOPE certified. With her patients, she predominately uses an LCHF diet, and recently obtained certification from Low Carb USA. Nothing brings her more joy, in her profession, than helping her patients regain health and preventing illness through nutrition. Contact: 1(615)441-4400

Andrew Oswari

New Jersey, USA

I graduated from Loma Linda University Medical School and practiced traditional medicine until from 2000-2007. I transitioned into Integrative Medicine when I realized that I was only patching my patients disorders with medications at every visit. I now utilize acupuncture, prolotherapy, low dose immunotherapy and other modalities to promote healing from within the body. In February 2019 I finally changed my way of eating after feeling run down and with a newly diagnosed diabetes. I completely changed to a LCHF way of eating and immediately saw results. I have not stopped learning since my brain cleared of its fog and now am so excited to have earned this certification. I am now “shouting it from the rooftops” and am trying to establish an Instagram account @ketolife.dro

Andy Taylor

Nutrition Network Advisor

England, UK

My name is Andy Taylor I have completed professional training in LCHF/Ketogenic Nutrition & Treatment and the Advisor Training. I also have an undergraduate degree in Strength & Conditioning and have been coaching young and old athletes and the general public for the past 12 years. From my own journey as a former professional athlete and now a coach, I was not feeling that I was achieving or ever had achieved my total optimal function. I was certainly starting to get the adverse effects of eating the standard diet and my health was deteriorating which to someone who had always kept themselves so-called fit was demoralising. I went searching for answers and I found the answers through the Real Meal Revolution training and the Nutrition Network training I have acquired. It is my aim to best equip my clients with the knowledge that will aid with the carbohydrate-addiction recovery model and that a low carb, high fat diet is optimal in the recovery of obesity and insulin resistance. I am based in Exeter in the South West of England and run a small clinic with my wife Claire who is a Sports Rehabilitator and injury recovery therapist. We have a private facebook group Taylormaderehab subscribers page for all our clients and this provides information on services and support we offer in our effort to help you thrive in life! Through our community, we strive to offer support for all our services and bring people together in achieving their total optimal function.

Health, living life to the fullest and helping others along the way is Chris' motto in life. Healthy nutrition, exercise and a positive mental attitude are all inter-related and essential components to health. Chris mentions that in his profession of chiropractic, people (himself included) are very aware of the importance of being evidence-based. And so, with regards to nutrition, this is the first time he has come across an approach that not only works (personal experience) but has strong supporting evidence. The Banting nutritional life-style is the perfect partner in the management of my patient’s health endeavours.

Christine Franic

British Columbia, Canada

Christine Franic, RN BSN MBA MSc DD, is a registered nurse with over 30 years in healthcare in British Columbia Canada. Her mother had a stroke at the age of 53 that left her paralyzed for 31 years until she passed away at the age of 84. Her father had his leg amputated at 60 and died of a heart attack at 73. Her parents were both type 2 diabetics on medication, insulin, 3 meals and 3 snacks a day as per protocol. This family history petrified Christine, so she studied and worked hard to ensure this didn’t happen to her. However, after years of struggle with yo-yo dieting, fatty liver, high triglycerides, gestational diabetes with her three pregnancies following the standard diabetic protocols that didn’t work she gave up. In January 2017 she was doing rounds in the ER as an Infection Prevention & Control Practitioner when she received the call from her family physician informing her that her glucose was 24mmol/L or 430mg/dL and her triglycerides were 18mmol/L or 1594mg/dL and she needed treatment stat. Fortunately, she was stabilized before any critical incident occurred. While on medical leave she decided enough was enough and her son asked her to look into the ketogenic diet. She found peer reviewed studies, trials, cases and much more in the literature on Low Carbohydrate and Ketogenic lifestyles. With nothing to lose she lost over 80 pounds and has kept it off to date. Her A1C has been at 5% for the past year and a half. She still has more weight to lose, and she knows that the body needs time to heal. When she experiences a weight loss stall she now understands the process of autophagy and how it is healing her body back to homeostasis. This is the first time that she has not gained the weight back it just stayed stalled and eventually it starts losing again. She specializes in helping people with obesity, and pre-diabetes with online group sessions and education programs, one-on-one, and retreats. Email [email protected] cell phone or text 1.250.619.1258. She is available for workshops, seminars and retreats.
