About Our Founder, Danielle Puno, Certified Nutrition Consultant

---

Danielle Puno is a Certified Nutrition Consultant and a BCHN (Candidate).* Her journey to becoming a Certified Nutrition Consultant through Bauman College, in Emeryville, CA, began after a personal illness sparked a craving for a red bell pepper, which in turn helped alleviate her symptoms. This experience ignited her curiosity about and her passion for holistic nutrition.

Before stepping into the role of a Nutrition Consultant, she dedicated 13 years to the field of education. Her nutrition interests, coupled with her master's degree in education, fueled her passion for educating children, parents, and school staff on the transformative power of holistic nutrition. 

What started as a weekend hobby of researching and sharing about healthy eating and holistic living soon became a burning passion. She decided to formalize her knowledge by pursuing a certification in holistic nutrition and building a practice around it: Intuitive Health Holistic Nutrition. 

Danielle understands and coaches clients on holistic nutrition, which focuses on the whole person and not just their symptoms, to increase energy levels, improve digestion, and foster a more robust immune system.

She enjoys educating others on living intuitively (paying attention to the body's cues) and building an intentional lifestyle to support optimal health. Her teaching and coaching will help you learn about yourself, grow, and achieve your ambitions. As needed, she continues to coach you as you cycle through each new level continuing to progress and evolve. 

Her coaching also provides stability and sustainability. She will help you combat and contain the moments when you fall into old, unhealthy habits. She will help support and guide you to achieve your healthiest self. 

She believes there is no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. Each person has unique needs based on food allergies, sensitivities, medical conditions, injuries, energy levels, and personal preferences. She provides personalized guidance and support, understanding that your journey to optimal health is unique. 

Together, she works with you towards regaining the quality of life you seek.

Your journey would begin with an initial consultation where you discuss your health goals, dietary preferences, and any health concerns. From there, she creates a personalized nutrition plan for you and provide ongoing support and guidance, ensuring you always have the resources and encouragement you need as you work towards your goals.

*BCHN (Candidate) stands for Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition (Candidate). I have passed the board exam and am working on the necessary client contact hours in order to be fully certified.
