Testimonials
Hello, my name is Claude, and this is my testimonial for Northern
Holistic Nutrition.
I met Sharon Wilson through a common interest of riding motorcycles. In the spring of 2007, I injured my neck. Tests showed a herniated disc in the lower part of my neck. The pain and the loss of strength, in my arm and hand, made it very difficult to ride my motorcycle. I unfortunately missed a complete season of riding due to this injury. My doctor recommended I try acupuncture, physiotherapy, and massage therapy in order to correct this problem. I was also on a waiting list to see a neurology specialist in Sudbury. In the meantime, Sharon spoke with me explaining that she could help me by using holistic nutrition, which included dietary and lifestyle changes, which would encourage my body to naturally heal itself. This was my very first time using holistic nutrition. I followed Sharon’s recommendations and in approx. 3 to 4 months, I started to see a substantial improvement in my injury. I attended my appointment with the specialist in Sudbury, where she recommended I continue with this process, because it was working. It took a little time, but I am now able to ride my motorcycle again.
Thank-you, Sharon – Claude C. South Porcupine, ON
Hi. I’m Fred and I was recently diagnosed with arthritis in my back.
Since my back pain started, I was afraid to do anything physical. Therefore my pant size went up because I love to eat. My good friend told me that, “I eat like a tractor”. That’s true. Then on advice from her husband, Glenn, I went to see Sharon. She did a very detailed survey of my day-to-day life. Together we were able to identify the cause of my arthritis. She recommended a dietary supplement and things to watch out for, when it comes to eating. I don’t want to call it a diet, but maybe it is. After a few months, I am now doing better. Before I do something that could be strenuous, I think before I act. I do not want that back pain again. Walking seems to help too and I am enjoying it. I did lose some weight. It hasn’t been easy, especially when your wife makes the most delicious desserts. My ‘tractor eating’ habits are almost gone. Take a bite, put down the fork, chew, swallow, then take another bite. It sounds easy when writing it down. It’s much harder when at the table. My wife is now cooking according to Sharon’s plan for me. So, we will both benefit. I do get a piece of cherry pie once in awhile, but only a small one. Sharon is very professional and knowledgeable. She is detailed and precise. If she doesn’t know about something you want to know, she finds out very quickly. I needed someone to give me a ‘push’ to get my act together. I’m glad I went to Sharon to get it.

Hello, I’m Melinda and this is my testimonial for Northern Holistic Nutrition.
I have been aware of herbal remedies for a very long time. My Grandmother was an awesome resource for herbal remedies. I had a cold, call her and voila…a list of what I needed and what brand was better than another. We would talk for hours about different cleanses, remedies and books. It was amazing. When my girls were born and not feeling well, herbals were always first line of defense, and still are. When I do go to see my doctor, he always asks what I have tried first. This is one of the things I like about him so much; he is very supportive of ‘alternative’ medicine.
About 2 years ago, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and the symptoms of that included depression, insomnia and severe muscle pain. I also suffered from Crohn’s Disease. I had felt so tired and out of sorts for so long, I had no idea that there was any way out, except for prescription medications. The herbals I had tried did not seem to make a difference. My diet got poorer and I felt worse. Sharon had explained to me how she had gotten rid of the pain and exhaustion. At this point I was willing to try anything!! So off on the journey we went.
With hours of lists and questions, it was all beginning to feel like “would there be a light at the end of the tunnel”? But yes, indeed there was. One of the many things I learned was that every person’s body runs differently and so we needed to pin point what mine needed to work properly. With my analysis complete, we found that my thyroid was not functioning properly and was the root cause of my symptoms. With this newly found knowledge and Sharon’s recommendations, I have changed my diet, drink more water and use some vitamin & mineral supplements. What a difference it has made in my life. I am able to sleep at night, which I have not done in 12 years. I have energy all day to keep up with 3 busy daughters, my farm, husband, job and volunteer work.
Thanks Sharon – Melinda M. Port Elgin, ON
