Catherine Barnhoorn (aka Mama) Mom, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach & Author Having healed myself from various autoimmune conditions (post-pregnancy) through diet and organic living and having to raise a child with food intolerances, I set to work educating myself and getting creative in the kitchen. As an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, I am deeply passionate about empowering parents to make informed decisions with regards to what they feed their children and themselves. I see Mila’s (and my own) food intolerances as a blessing which have led us down a path of learning, discovery and good health – which will hopefully stand us in good stead for years to come. Mila (aka Angel) Muse I am a free-from kid! That means I am free-from / don’t eat gluten, dairy and sugar. Why? Because gluten makes the poopies get stuck, dairy makes my nose snotty and my ears hurt, and sugar – well sugar makes me feel sugary. (Note from Mama: After Mila has eaten sugar, she holds her hand on her chest and says “Mama, I feel sugary!”) I pretend to be a very fussy eater because it sends my mama into the kitchen to make really yummy food that none of the other kids at school get!
