Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me with my father suffering from Alzheimer's. Your heartfelt kindness says much about you. Having a charming French woman on his arm got him down those dangerous steps in no time! A true pleasure meeting you. Namaste.

Marie-Annick est venue a la maison pour coacher au niveau alimentation mon adolescent de 14 ans qui fait du basket a un haut niveau. Elle lui a fait des cours theoriques sur l'equilibre alimentaire, puis lui a cree des menus personnalises et ils sont passe petit a petit a la pratique en cuisine. Cela a ete un vrai declencheur pour mon fils qui a peu a peu change ses habitudes et nous disait encore hier "je me sens vraiment mieux et plus fort depuis que je mange equilibre", presque tout etonne. Je recommande vivement le coaching alimentaire de Marie-Annick, elle a ete a l'ecoute de mon ado, et les resultats sont plus que positifs. Merci!

Marie-Annick has been so gracious to be our guest Chef at Premium Gold Flax Products booth at various Winter Fancy Food Show in San Francisco and New York, plus at the Natural Product Expo West in Anaheim. Marie has worked many other events with us as well. She is a true professional that carries out her duties with great ease and with a stealthiness that is required at these trade shows. She is a whiz and we are proud to have her as a friend as well. Not often will a Chef dawn an apron and she did for Debbie Kay's Gluten Free Kitchen. A Country hats off to Marie-Annick!
