What They Say..
I want to take a moment and tell you how pleased I am that I had the ALCAT Test done. I was feeling sluggish, could not lose weight, had a headache every day, and heartburn! Sounds miserable right! When I heard about the ALCAT test, I was suspicious. How could food have such a negative effect on my system? However, I really wanted some relief. I had the test done, and started eliminating the foods that I am sensitive to. What an amazing result. I do not have headaches or heartburn anymore. I have a lot of energy, and feel more optimistic than I have in years. A nice side effect also is that I have started losing weight. This has been such a struggle for me, and now I feel that I can shed the extra pounds that I have been carrying for years. I strongly support this test, and would be happy to share my success with anyone.
I have known Isabelle for several years and always appreciated her consistent education and guidance on nutrition. She has greatly inspired me to look for healthier choices in nutrition and I must say that it has been very effective. I feel healthier, more energetic and much happier. I am very grateful and thankful to Isabelle.
One of the most attractive aspects of working with Isabelle has been her willingness to be flexible and adapt program schedules and components to meet our organizational needs. We have found the instructors working with her to be extremely knowledgeable, energetic, and passionate about communicating wellness initiatives to our employees. They have been willing to engage our employees in addressing their individual concerns, and offered numerous suggestions to help us promote our activities, as well as providing us with helpful informational materials. Isabelle and her staff have been a pleasure to work with and have displayed a genuine concern for the health and welfare of our workforce. Our organization welcomes the opportunity to continue working with them in the future.
We utilize several providers for the various health & wellness services we offer to our members. Simon Wellness Consulting, LLC, which provides on-site educational wellness seminars, is the one that has provided us with the most tangible results. We have seen a return on our investment of between $4 & $7 for every dollar we have invested. The caliber of the staff is excellent and the service has been outstanding. We will continue to use them as much as possible in the future.
I used to drink 1-2 liter bottles of Pepsi per day, never water. I changed to no diet soda (occasionally 1 diet soda per month). I eat more veggies and switched to water all day- every day. Also, I switched to a toddler plate/bowl for portion control. I got rid of chips, junk food, ice cream and cookies. I lowered my BMI 5 points, my body fat by 8%, and lost 11 lbs in the past 8 months.
Once I started on the ALCAT plan, I began seeing almost immediate results. The food cravings (primarily for sweet foods) stopped completely after about 3 days. I actually started eating only when hungry, but I did not feel deprived and was not starving between meals. The weight loss began almost immediately as well. I lost a total of about 15 pounds over 3 months. My migraines stopped completely, so I was able to stop taking a migraine preventive medication. My constant fatigue also began to improve over time, as well as bloating from water retention. I was feeling better and definitely looked better (receiving comments almost daily). My body composition was changing as well. Working with Muriel was very helpful: answering questions about the plan and its menus; substituting/eliminating foods when necessary to aid in the weight loss. Thanks for all your help.
