Are you planning to have a baby?

If so, then you and your partner want to be in the best of health.
Introducing Jan Katzen-Luchenta AMI CFP – Preconception/Prenatal Nutritionist:

"Nourishment with the focus on eating "now" for healthy conception, fetal, and child development is paramount for couples planning for pregnancy. I employ a science-based, straight forward and down-to-earth approach to partner with Moms and Dads-to-be. I provide the best of both worlds; nutritional education and the clinically demonstrated power of specific nutrients in whole foods to support natural and assisted conception. "

Jan has studied nutrition and health under the guidance of renowned professor Michael Crawford, director of the Institute of Brain Chemistry and Human Nutrition at the London Metropolitan University. She interned with Nim Barnes, founder of Foresight Preconceptual Care (Bognor Regis, England) and is the Foresight U.S. programme director. Foresight is a well researched foundation that helps couples resolve nutrient deficiencies, heavy metal and mineral imbalances, and other health concerns prior to conception.

Jan specializes in providing highly informative and individualized eating plans for couples planning for pregnancy. She has published numerous articles and books on nutrition with a focus on preconceptional health, brain and child development, and nourishment that supports attention and learning. Jan is on the advisory boards of The Mother and Child Foundation (UK) and The Montessori Education for Autism Foundation (UK).

Who Benefits From Individualized Preconception/Prenatal Nutritional Guidance?

• Couples trying to conceive – Nutrient deficiencies, fatty acid, heavy metal and mineral imbalances, oxidative stress, and high glycemic diets are hallmarks of reproductive failure. An individualized eating plan supports sperm and ovum maturation, fertilization and early cell division.
• Pregnant and nursing mothers – Returning to a natural diet of minimally processed foods prior to conception increases energy and supports the nutrient-specific demands of each gestational trimester. This is of paramount importance to multiple fetuses. Together, we will compile a priority list of foods to balance your nutrient intake. Our goal - profound shifts in physical and emotional well being for both mother and baby throughout pregnancy and nursing.
• Developing fetuses and nursing infants – No one is more vulnerable to inadequate nutrition than a developing fetus or nursing baby. Improved nutritional status for the preconceived and unborn child lowers the child's risk of allergy, the effects of gestational diabetes, low birth weight, and subsequent health and neuro-developmental disorders. A mother's nutritional habits influence weaning foods and therefore, the future health and intelligence of her newborn.

Preconception/Prenatal Nutrition Consultations with Jan - What to Expect:

As soon as you employ Jan's services you will receive comprehensive nutrition, health, and lifestyle questionnaires. Nutrition educational hand-outs will be provided every step of the way.

Email Jan to set-up your complimentary telephone consultation. Jan@nutritionforlearning.com
or call 602.370.4036.

Initial consultation (telephone or Skype): Includes evaluation of your current nutritional intake, health and lifestyle questionnaire forms. This includes Dads and Moms-to-be. Nutrition at a cellular level will be explained. Together we will develop a priority list of foods to balance nutrient intake. New techniques for food preparation will be discussed. You will receive a well-researched list of foods to support conception, pregnancy, and healthy child development. Nutrition at a cellular level will be discussed with an emphasis on foods containing nutrients that build the neural tube. A simple food journal will be introduced.

Progress consultation (one-two weeks): Several days of your food journal will be evaluated. Timing and meal composition modifications may be necessary based on how you are feeling. We will look at ways to cut corners with time restraints and eating out (parties, etc.) without sabotaging your "core" whole food nutrition objectives. Our goal is to make meal and snack time so nourishing and satisfying it becomes second nature (and also fertile ground for conception).

Initial and progress consultations $225.00 (His and Hers)

Follow-up consultations as needed: For some individuals continued weekly or bi-weekly nutritional consultations are needed for reinforcing new eating habits. Additional food journaling in tandem with feeling your best yields life-changing results.

Follow-up consultations $75.00

Jan may recommend heavy metal and mineral balancing in collaboration with Foresight Preconceptual Care. Foresight link www.foresight-preconception.org.uk

"Had I known a little about nutrition I might have eaten and fed my family better years ago. When you first sent me the graphic of how to nourish and protect the cell   I could finally understand the reasoning behind omega 3s, vegetables, grass-fed animals, etc. And then I realized – My ovum is a cell!"
