"I had never been in discussions with a Herbalist before and so was a little nervous about taking the plunge into eating better and getting healthy with herbs, but when I had my first meeting with Angie, she put me at ease and explained nutrition and herbal medicine in a way that made me understand easily what I needed to do and why. She was very detailed and professional and took into account my lifestyle and my needs and created a plan that was tailor-made for me. She also went above and beyond in some areas to research my specific issues. I appreciate all that she gave to me and keep the information with me".
