Testimonials for Holistic Nutrition

Tara Carpenter, NC.

Serving customized in-home cooking, nutritional consultations, and meal plans for colon health, bacterial/yeast overgrowth, and The Body Ecology Diet.

Below are testimonials I have received over the years and MANY photos (which I am learning to position within text, hence a scatter!). 

For all around nutritional support:

If you need nutritional support then I highly recommend a consult with Tara; I feel 100% refreshed and focused again ~ S.P., Laguna Beach, CA (Tiny Laguna Kitchen)

Tara’s consults are informative, like chatting over a cup of tea, her words heartwarming. I feel safe and trust her, which is important when making life/diet changes ~ K.L., Tasmania, Australia

I am honored to write a testimonial for Tara who changes lives for the better. Her manner is supportive and gentle in meeting people where they are; allowing and supporting them to proceed at their own schedule which takes ALL the pressure off and encourages one to slowly and at one’s own pace, incorporate health-promoting habits ~ B.C., Orlando, FL

I met Tara at Esalen in 1999. Seeing her way of eating and living was a huge impact and inspiration; in many ways marking the beginning of what I’ve done with my life ~ J.T., Providence, RI (Cooking with Italian Grandmothers)

I’m grateful for Tara’s teachings and guidance. I admire and respect her commitment to help others make changes to allow for a better, happier life ~ S.M., Bogotá, Colombia

I marvel at the emotional and spiritual healing I’m moving through to heal my gut. I struggled with issues for YEARS and in a few weeks with Tara, I feel lighter and more present than ever ~ B.U., Bethel, VT (Be Seen)

For customized 5-day meal plans:

I recommend Tara’s meal plans, especially if daunted about going gluten/dairy free, her ideas are doable ~ R.E., Montpelier, VT.

Our plan was an absolute I couldn’t have done without ~ L.H., Brisbane, Australia

I made sorghum pops with ghee. Oh my goodness, yummy!! I’ll never eat popcorn again (allergic, so shouldn’t!). I’m making recipes from my meal plan like lemon pie, so simple! I’m in great hands and ready to go full steam with more consults. I can’t thank you enough. I knew my life would improve since I found you ~ B.C., Orlando, FL

What a delightful array of healing food. I enjoy the variety of ingredients; crispy croquettes with bright carrot sauce and a smooth finish ~ L.F., Stowe, VT

For B.E.D. Support:

I discovered The Body Ecology Diet (B.E.D.) in a body that didn’t feel good. I’d spent years struggling with health and versions of disordered eating. I was 100lbs overweight, my joints hurt, exhausted, and a hopelessly weak constitution; something I feared would last a whole life, read more ~ H.L., NY, NY

I know it’s overwhelming to start B.E.D. You are in good hands with Tara, she helped my family navigate this path ~ J.S., Worcester, VT

Tara’s amazing! When you don’t feel good or feel foggy it helps to have someone shine abright light to get where we need to go. I tried 4 autism diets for my son and B.E.D. helped us thrive ~ K.M., Oregon (Method of Hope)

When I read B.E.D., I didn’t know where to begin, felt complicated with many pieces and principles to put together, esp. food combining! Tara broke everything down into doable ways and after 3 sessions I was more sure on my feet. When I checked in at 2-month mark I was on the diet AND traveling for business ~ S.K., Chapel Hill, NC
