Nancy Desjardins

Officially, I'm a Registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner. Unofficially, I’m known as the Health Lady on a Mission.

Health to me is more than a weekend at the spa — it’s a life-long journey of continuous learning. Together.

At HealthLady.com, we're all about helping you conquer food addictions, slim down and take control of your eating habits.

My mission, quite simply, is to help you look and feel better - naturally— by using proven methods that are both easy to adopt and fun! My wellness programs and online coaching are backed by 15 years oftraining and practice in holistic nutrition.

HealthLady.com evolved from my earlier businesses: I owned and operated a health foodstore in Northern Ontario and my own nutritional counseling practice inGeorgetown, Ontario, where I helped hundreds of people learn how tolive a healthy lifestyle - without fad diets and hours spent at the gym.

I also traveled to some of the best health retreats in the world to help expand my knowledge and wisdom.

I've now moved my business to the cottage in Bancroft, Ontario, where I'm adding "treehugger" to my "health nut" title. My husband, Yvan, and I are living off the grid, relying on the sun and the wind to provide all our power. And a wood stove to keep us warm during those cold Canadian winter months. I'm going green big time! We are about as close to carbon-neutral as you can get. It’s our small step to help the environment.

My new year-round home is also a place where I can grow my own organic food, and help others, through this website and my newsletters, do the same at their homes. And it's the perfect environment to get my creative juices flowing so I can expand my programs and share knowledge — like the exciting information revealed in interviews with experts in the world of nutrition.
