Because of Ali’s amazing guidance and coaching, I’ve been able to pick up and implement tools to undo 4 decades of dysfunctional relations with food. I’ve not only learned how to properly fuel my body, but more importantly, I’ve learned how good I can feel and perform with the right fuel. Ali is absolutely incredible and has given me lifelong tools that I will use for the rest of my life!

My wife joined Parkside Nutrition to aid her in her goal of living a healthy lifestyle. Low and behold I also benefited by losing weight and enjoying a healthy lifestyle. If you are in need of guidance and professional assistance reach out to Ali, you won't be disappointed.

Working with Ali is such a joy. She helped me so much to accomplish goals and I ended up learning a lot about myself, habits and nutrition! The things I learned will be easy to carry on long term. Would recommend working with Ali for sure!

Ali is great to work with. She understands the craziness of life. She was able to help me navigate camping trips, weddings, tailgates, and so much more. It was great to have her support, and helping with ideas with both everyday life and the fun activities. During this time, I was able to see real results both in my eating habits and on the scale.

Ali is so wonderful! They helped me build a different relationship with food and helped me to be mindful of what I am putting in my body.

I decided to hire Ali to help me with my digestive issues and I am really happy I did. Not only did she help with these issues but I also starting dropping some weight too. I would highly recommend her for any nutritional needs due to her kind and professional manner. She listens to your concerns and makes recommendations based on your personal needs.

My experience with the 6 month scholarship program… The most important thing I learned was the significance of showing up for myself. I used to think that big results required big changes. But, with Ali’s help, small/manageable changes resulted in over 30lbs of weight loss. Tracking my food with Ali helped me gain awareness of my eating habits. The Habit Kickstarter course helped me identify ways to make good habits easier to sustain. The 1 on 1 check-ins helped me stay accountable and consistent. There were no drastic changes. No “perfect diet”. Just slightly better choices, greater consistency over time, and a passionate & knowledgeable coach to guide me along the way! Now, months after finishing the scholarship program, I’ve continued to maintain the habits I worked on with Ali. In total, I’ve sustainably lost >60lbs, hit new PR’s in the gym, and my mental health is greatly improved! Less

Ali is thoughtful with suggestions for modifying your diet and lifestyle to help hit your goals. She is knowledgeable in her field, and I have learned quite a bit in the past 10 months working with her. She has helped me modify my behaviors and make better choices with my diet and lifestyle to make me a healthier version of me. Thanks, Ali!

Ali's heart, program, tools, and perspective combined with the group support and shared experiences has prepared me to continue this journey solo.

It's hard to leave, I'd happily meet with these people every Tuesday night for life, but it's time continue my growth and that means leaving the safety of this nest and flying with my own wings.

Ali is a very caring and compassionate professional. I referred a friend to her and she took very good care of them. She is extremely knowledgeable and educated in her field, and I have no hesitations to refer anyone to her in the future. Thank you, Ali!

In the past I was often given tone deaf advice or mislead which left me very cynical in regards to nutrition. The five week program and one on one calls really helped me pin point how to stay consistent and positive in my relationship with food. While I am not local to Salem, I felt the Zoom meetings were still helpful. There was something way more genuine in our group meetings in comparison to ones I've attended in the past. Would definitely recommend to anyone that is trying to seek a healthy and balanced approach towards their health goals. Less

Parkside has a great approach to eating habits, nutrition, and the mental and emotional aspects that contribute to a person's habits, choices, and circumstance. I feel great about the things I learned and the mental obstacles I overcame while working with Ali and would recommend Parkside Nutrition to anyone who needs a hand in their nutrition/health journey!

Ali is, hands down, the best nutrition/wellness person I’ve ever worked with. She offers an unique, non-judgemental approach that educates the “why” without prescribing a one size fits all mentality that’s solely focused on losing weight. I feel like I have a piece of my life back and am doing things I never thought possible.

Ali has developed a wide range of programs to help one learn about, or overcome dietary concerns. She is knowledgeable, excellent at communicating, and to be honest, fun to talk with. With her help I’m enjoying a new relationship with food. Thank You for your help! No doubt we will chat more soon! Cheers!

Ali is gentle, and patient. She didn’t tell me to change everything at once; she instead asked me to be aware of what I was doing, and how it made me feel. She asked me about my goals, and what I felt was doable. Change came gradually, and at my speed. My weekly check in with Ali is about so much more than meal prep and gym schedule.

She asked me about my goals, and what I felt was doable. Change came gradually, and at my speed. My weekly check in with Ali is about so much more than meal prep and gym schedule.

Working with Ali has changed my life, and continues to do so. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Less

Ali is such a thoughtful, caring, and comprehensive Nutrition Coach. She makes it fun to learn, investigate, and discover the right path towards your health goals. I feel so much more energy from all the work we’ve done together. I’ve lost a bunch of weight, gained muscle, and sleep through the night.

The information is well packaged/presented, and thoughtful/thought provoking.

very informative and helpful, I'm looking forward to more direct learning and technical help for myself.

Ali is amazing!! She has a real passion for nutrition and it shows. Not just another site of “fad food plans”.

Ali is passionate about nutrition and for each person to be eating healthy, nutritious, and delicious food. She is engaging in class, takes time to make sure you understand the concepts and their application, and brings in food. I would recommend her class in a heart beat.

Alison is so in tune with the chemistry of food and the research. I have learned so much from her in her classes. She is ever ready to answer my questions. I am a better human because I feel better about what I’m eating and what I’m eating. Thanks Ali!
