Andrea Katz:

As an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach with Best You Nutrition, Andrea’s goal is to turn on the spark inside you to find a love for nutrition and health that you have never found before. We are all our own best health advocates. After losing her mom in 2013 to a horrific battle with cancer, something was sparked in her to learn. She wanted to learn more about how our digestive system is the key to health; to learn about how we can strengthen our immune systems with food; to learn how food and lifestyle can lead to longevity. This thirst for knowledge and spark she has found is now how she coaches.

In her early 40’s she was blessed to give birth to a beautiful, healthy and happy baby girl. At her first appointment with the OBGYN, she said, “What matters is how healthy you come into and stay in during your pregnancy”. Words she will never forget. No matter what your health goal or dream is, you CAN achieve it. Let Andrea help guide you in the direction of your goals and make magic happen.
