My Story

        My journey towards health began as a defensive strategy.  My first steps were in response to recovering from  an eating disorder.  I had to work hard to rebuild my relationship with both food and my own body.  In my early 20's I had several loved ones diagnosed with diseases that were specifically linked to poor nutrition.  I began researching disease prevention and it became clear that Nutrition was key.   In 2014 I graduated with a B.S. in Nutrition and minors in Kinesiology and Health Studies.  I started Rebekah Shepherd Nutrition the following year!  

      I believe that a healthy relationship with food and one's body  are necessary for optimal happiness.  In my practice I focus on educating individuals and groups about Nutrition and how to eat for long term wellness.  Extreme diets and fad eating plans often don't last or work for everyone.    

A big part of my practice is also helping small businesses with their nutritional compliance needs including Recipe Analysis and FDA labeling.   I look forward to sharing my passion for Health and Nutrition with you!
