Award Recipient

Nida Ghazanfar

NTP

I’m Nida, your friendly Neighborhood Nutritionist! I’m a boy mom to a 4 and 9 year old. Somewhere in between ‘mommy-ing’ my children, I birthed my practice, Apple Flavoured Oranges 6 years ago and have been working virtually with clients all over North America and the UK since then!
I have always been an inquisitive girl and when I experienced challenges with my own fertility, I started asking WHY? Although I am formally trained in business, I quickly found my heart and passion in the field of Holistic Nutrition. I started my journey with the Nutritional Therapy Association in 2017.

I absolutely loved the training I received and started my practice in 2018. In 2021, I wanted to address more complex health issues for both my clients and for my freshly diagnosed ASD son who struggled with chronic constipation almost all his life. I went to Restorative Wellness Solutions and got extra training in gut and hormone testing, completing my RWS Level 2 certification.

My biggest success story is my own son! After just 3 months of working on his gut, his chronic constipation of 6 years, which no naturopath or conventional doc could get down to the bottom of, resolved completely. His mental health was the next to improve. I had a brand-new boy!
My practice now revolves around helping people with complex and chronic gut, autoimmune and hormone issues.

When I am not ‘geeking out’ over the microbiome, I enjoy intimate conversations with close friends & family, exploring nature and experimenting with ‘better-for you’ bakes! I truly believe Functional Nutrition is the future and that addressing gut health is the foundation to almost everything!
