Truly, you owe it to yourself to allow Andrea to improve your lifestyle. My husband and I both learned so much about how to develop a sustainable, nutritious diet and lifestyle as we ease into our 60's. Andrea is as delightful to work with as she is knowledgeable about nutrition. Now we read labels regularly, find time to enjoy meal prep while listening to music as a rewarding break rather than a chore, and enjoy increased energy and a better overall outlook as a result of the changes we've made.

I entered my Sugar Detox 5-week class with Andrea bearing high hopes but guarded optimism since I'd taken 'better health' courses in the past (unrelated to this Restart or Andrea's Rising Roots Nutrition protocols) that seemed to yield little lasting change and no real paradigm-shift in my view of what's wholesome and nutritional in my daily diet vs. what's certainly not OK.

I entered my Sugar Detox 5-week class with Andrea bearing high hopes but guarded optimism since I'd taken 'better health' courses in the past (unrelated to this Restart or Andrea's Rising Roots Nutrition protocols) that seemed to yield little lasting change and no real paradigm-shift in my view of what's wholesome and nutritional in my daily diet vs. what's certainly not OK. In addition, I had recently been diagnosed with Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, recurring asthma, low energy and about 60 excess pounds of body weight. Tonight, as I write this review starting the 5th week of our course, I am 12 pounds lighter, brimming with energy, and seeing life -- and food labels -- with a whole new clarity and excitement! Knowledge is indeed power, and this course has certainly empowered me. What I have learned and am continuing to learn will change, and very likely lengthen, my life for as long as it pleases God to keep me going. Now I know better how to eat and to cooperate with what I am certain is the way he intends for us to take care of our bodies. Less

Andrea from Rising Roots Nutrition came at a crucial time for me. Since working with her my depression is gone, my foggy brain is clear, my allergies have lessen, I lost weight, learned to nourish my mind / body and I am now pregnant. I had gone for a Physical with my primary care and after asking me a series of questions it was decided that I had depression and that I should be on Zoloft. I resisted and said no I should probably just lose weight and I’ll be fine. So I went to a weight loss center near me. They provided no guidance for healthy eating besides putting me on a point system and Phentermine. I did lose weight however, I was not eating nor sleeping because of the side effects of the pill. I knew this was not sustainable so then I found Andrea. Through a series of test she was able to find the source of my problems which was mainly related to gut health. We collaborated on a plan to improve my health and supplements to support my healing. She has been a great accountability partner. She also guided me to find the right type of therapy for me to help me through my depression. Between Therapy and her guidance for nourishing my mind and body, I have not had another depression episode. I also reached a stage of mental clarity that made me realize that I wanted to become a mother. I am 36 years old, I have a diminishing ovarian reserve (DOR) and fibroids. That did not matter. I got pregnant on month 3 of trying because my body was ready to take on the job. Andrea has been a true blessing. If you are ready to make a big change in how you live and feel, I could not recommend Andrea enough. Less

We worked together for 3 months and not only did my cholesterol count decrease by 100, Andrea worked with me to adapt my diet for an altogether more healthy approach to food. She is patient and knowledgeable, extremely thorough. Working with Andrea has been a great experience. Less

Andrea at Rising Roots Nutrition owned her domain as leader of a small group that wanted to learn about and feel better after her 21-day Sugar Detox Program.

Andrea at Rising Roots Nutrition owned her domain as leader of a small group that wanted to learn about and feel better after her 21-day Sugar Detox Program. There wasn't a question she left unanswered and her wealth of knowledge about products and supplements to help achieve individual results was pretty amazing. Scheduling, handouts, coordination and communication were all top notch. I highly recommend the Sugar Detox course to cleanse your body of excess sugars and to learn about the insane amounts of sugar most Americans consume and how to identify the offending ingredients. Do your body a favor and take the course. Less

She took me on a personal shopping tour to show me which foods would help me with the symptoms I had.

Are you hooked on Sugar? Is it something you just love and you keep saying to yourself, tomorrow I will stop. Well, that was me and then I heard Andrea talk about her 21 Day Sugar Detox and I said to myself, I must try this. Maybe if I have someone to make me accountable I will really do it this time.

Are you hooked on Sugar? Is it something you just love and you keep saying to yourself, tomorrow I will stop. Well, that was me and then I heard Andrea talk about her 21 Day Sugar Detox and I said to myself, I must try this. Maybe if I have someone to make me accountable I will really do it this time. Well, it worked and I feel so much better. Not only did I quit eating sugar, I have become a sugar detective. OMG, there is sugar in everything. Not only that but I learned so much at each session. Today I feel so much better, I sleep better, I don't have achey joints and I have a pep in my step. Hey, what do you have to lose? Life is short and stopping the sugar craze will make your life so much longer. Good Luck. Less

I learned so much about eating healthy. I have more energy and have lost weight. I am so happy I started the journey with Andrea. follow-up review Feb. 27th, 2023 am so happy I found Andrea and signed up for the Rise Up Package the 1st for November, 2022. In March of 2022 when I went for my annual mammogram they found a lump! It was cancer and I had it removed and did radiation. When I finished I had no energy for months. I stopped exercising, sewing and was not feeling like myself. Once I started Andrea showed me how to read labels, came to my house and looked at all the things I buy and also looked at my blook work. She put me on a plan and it really helped, even during the holidays. I eat clean now, organic, drink at least 60 oz of water and I feel the way I felt before cancer! I am exercising, sewing and walking everyday. My bloodwork is better and I lost 10lbs. This was the best thing I have done for myself. And my husband is benefiting too! Less

Andrea was recommended by a friend. With Andreas guidance, and my goal setting, I no longer crave sweets, have more energy to last throughout the day, and have lost 7 lbs. over the two months we've worked together.

Andrea was recommended by a friend. With Andreas guidance, and my goal setting, I no longer crave sweets, have more energy to last throughout the day, and have lost 7 lbs. over the two months we've worked together. At 64, I was skeptical that I would ever change my eating habits. With our weekly check-ins, and her meal/snack ideas, it's been a life changing and easy process. We also did a grocery store lesson. I know what to look for and what to stay away from. I had had blood work done before we meet, and then 3 months after and the results showed decreased cholesterol levels. I plan on continuing our relationship. Thanks Andrea! Less

I am so appreciative of the help that Andrea has provided to me throughout this 3 month period. Andrea has changed my life! She has taught me the best way to care for my body. I honestly never realized the importance of nutrition. Andrea has given me the tools to live a better life. Through her help I now know how to shop for quality food, cook the best meals and provide my body with the proper supplements. This is a great investment. I cannot emphasize the importance of nutrition and how Andrea works with you every step of the way to accomplish your goals. After working with Andrea, I feel much more motivated, happier and I am amazed with how my body has responded. You will be surprised with the changes that you will see! Previously I had difficulty running. My body felt heavy and I would only be able to run 2 miles. Plus I would always suffer from cramps while running. It was very discouraging. Through Andrea’s assistance, I am now able to run 4.5 miles with no cramps. With the changes to my nutrition and increase in water I was able to surprise myself. Not only that but I also ate pretty bad. I would skip meals and would eat lots of fast food when I did eat. I was always very lazy and felt very bloated. I just never thought much of the importance of nutrition. I honestly thought that as long as I exercised then I was free to eat whatever I wanted. However I was very wrong. I am very grateful to have worked with Andrea! She is very patient and understands that this a process. Change can be difficult at times but you will never know what you are capable of if you don’t try. For me, I am amazed with what I was able to accomplish alongside Andrea. So thank you Andrea for helping me learn these helpful tools to live a healthier life! It’s the little changes that go a long way in the end. Less
