I had been very ill over a decade, with a combination of autoimmune disease, Epstein Barr Virus, chronic fatigue and other maladies probably due to stress and cortisol and amplified by a late menopause.  However, in 2022 after a few years of careful nutrition and supplementation, I began to feel somewhat stronger and started light exercise with a trainer.  This trainer gave me Kate's book "How To Heal Your Metabolism". and urged me to have private consultation with Kate.  It was an excellent book and the best advice.  I admit I was obstinate, didn't want to deal with the original questionnaire (trainer actually did this with me to stop my delay tactics), didn't want to begin diet alterations dealing with dairy, protein, change of cooking oil, and the actual amount of daily food consumption.  But mostly I resented keeping a food diary including timing of meals and body temperature measurement.  OMG, during the early program I was like a horse "spitting the bit.".  I didn't want the discipline, I didn't want to measure. I am a creative cook with a wide palate.   I wanted to learn but not do the work.  

One year later, and I have to say, Kate changed me.  She pierced my wall of reluctance with patient explanations, suggested small challenges, encouragement including stories of her personal journey, and good humor.  For me, it was necessary to invest in this first year of work:  I've learned alot.  My sources (and measurement) of daily protein and carbs has changed, and now I try to measure these with every meal (especially breakfast) every day for health clarity.  It took a year, but I now willingly add collagen to my morning coffee!!  Unthinkable a year ago!!. And  I now understand that I need carb replenishment before and after exercise. I  try to achieve 25-30 grams of protein with each meal, and that new goal keeps me focused on the greater goal:  To keep my metabolism  in a state of balance, unstressed.  
Developing new habits and jettisoning longtime unhealthy habits is not easy, but it can be done simply by deciding to do it.
Kate has changed me, improved me and that's a big deal  as I'm a tough cookie in my 60's.  She's a terrific coach.  I'm sure I'll seek her wisdom for many years to come. It all started by reading her book.  It's a primer that i turn to over and over, and gift to friends whom I care about. It's been a pleasure to be coached by Kate.  I'm grateful.

Since taking your advice I wanted to share with you my face is no longer inflamed or puffy,  I have had less water retention and after increasing my sugar consumption I’ve had little to no gut issues due to motility and feel more energetic… 

I even drank wine over the holiday weekend and because I made sure to have juice beforehand I never felt drunk got low blood sugar or had a hangover.  It was really great.  I was able to just enjoy with my family. I’m eating a lot more but I feel happy and very warm.  

Thank you for everything,

Working with Kate enabled me to change my life and my relationship to myself and others. I reached out to her when I found myself at a major crossroads, with decisions to make that I didn’t feel I was fit to make at the time. Kate’s knowledge - broad and deep! - wisdom and compassion not only helped address my physical health concerns; they also helped me get mentally fit and strong, empowering me to make healthier decisions and live life more fully. Kate is nothing less than a modern-day healer.

I have been fortunate enough to have one-on-one sessions with Kate since July 22, and I can honestly say that she has transformed my life. Throughout this process, Kate has demonstrated the profound impact that my diet and eating habits have on my overall health and wellbeing, and how to implement changes in a way that is achievable for my life circumstances. I always knew that you are what you eat, but not to the extent that your nutrition impacts every aspect of your health and wellbeing, and most health issues can be alleviated, if not resolved, by addressing nutrition. Kate and I have worked together to address and resolve extreme shoulder and neck tension that had been plaguing me for years, leaving me drained and zapped of my spark, despite trying various treatments such as chiropractic treatments, osteopathy, acupuncture, and more.

The results were almost immediate, with noticeable improvements within the first two weeks. This was something I hadn't experienced in the four years prior whilst being treated with other therapies. It is truly remarkable how Kate's expertise and coaching in nutrition, hormones, and the physical body has made such a significant difference in my health journey.

One of the things I particularly appreciate about my sessions with Kate is how easy it is to talk with her. She creates a relaxed and comfortable environment where I feel safe sharing my concerns or asking questions, and i never feel rushed or that it's too much trouble to help me understand any discussion point. Her extensive knowledge and understanding of the human body and its nutritional needs are evident in every conversation we have. She has an incredible ability to explain complex concepts in a way that is easily understandable, making it that much easier for me to implement positive changes in my life.

I genuinely look forward to my sessions with Kate, knowing that each one brings me closer to achieving optimal health and vitality. I am incredibly grateful for her guidance and support, and I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking to improve their overall well-being through a holistic approach to nutrition.

As much as I appreciate the science-based wisdom of “How to Heal Your Metabolism”, the application of it was hard for me to wrap my head around. I’m sure I could’ve done it had I tried harder but then I learned that I could work with Kate Deering directly and, well, I didn’t have to think long about what I would do next. I’m so relieved that I worked with Kate especially because, even as I was doing my best to follow her program, I was still inundated with information about “the merits of” ____ (fill in the blank) for losing weight, more energy, etc.

What I ultimately learned is that almost everything out there is a short-term “fix” that eventually breaks. Intermittent fasting is great! At first. Until your metabolism dials itself way down to make up for the massive gap between nutritional support. Same with keto or low-carb eating. They may all work at first but they don’t last. 

Kate’s way actually made sense to me since it’s pretty much in line with Ayurvedic practices which are more than 5,000 years old. And it feels like it’s in line with the way my grandparents ate—and their parents. No one was intermittent fasting or low-carb eating a hundred years ago—and they were not overweight! Kate was nice enough to answer all of my questions and keep me on track. Using the Cronometer app enabled her to see exactly what I was eating and when I was eating it and Kate set my macronutrient ratios so that I didn’t have to check in with her daily—I just had to check my micronutrient ratios on the app.

Still, I needed our monthly Zoom calls because I used that time to ask Kate about any questions I still had and she used that time to go over what and how I had been eating and make suggestions for minor (or major) adjustments. 

If you’re serious about your long-term health, you really should consider working with Kate. She will not babysit you, scold you, or guilt you into anything. You have to be motivated to make the changes but she will help you see them through.

I thought you would appreciate an update on Kip and his health.  He had his follow-up MRI a week ago Sunday and yesterday he had his appointment to get the results.  We are so, so grateful…As of now, the cancer is GONE!!  His MRI looked completely normal and everything is as it should be.

Also, his oncologist (a new one from the one he last saw) is saying she will have him on the Orgovyx for only 18 months.  So, we need to get to September, which sounds way better than a year from March!  She said, as you also told us, that there is no evidence of any benefit after the 18 month mark.

Thank you so much for all the help you have been to us through this process.  As we sit and reflect on this journey, you are definitely one of the people we are thanking God for!*

*It should be noted this client used my nutrition recommendations, along with medical treatment to support him through cancer.

Renee and Kip D, IT, US

Kate was such an awesome practitioner to work with, she not only makes you feel cared for but I felt confident that she knew how to help me! I had been to a lot of holistic practitioners and doctors previously and none of them knew how to help me. Finding Kate was a breath of fresh air. She explains everything very well so you understand and feel confident that what you’re doing is going to work. You feel like she is really on your team and wants to help you improve your health. After working with Kate I felt way more confident that what I was doing was the right thing for my body and I’ve never looked back. It’s not like just starting another diet, this way of supporting my metabolism has become a lifestyle and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. I have way more energy, sleep better, have painless cycles and my digestion is NORMAL. I no longer always feel hungry and I don’t get any cravings or feel out of control around food. I struggled with my digestion for years and never thought I would be able to have a regular bowel movement without tons of supplements. Now I just go…multiple times a day. I’m so thankful that I was introduced into this world of prometaoblic eating and could not have asked for anyone better to have guided me along the way. I would highly recommend working with Kate, it was probably the best investment I have ever made for myself and my health.

I have to give a big shout out to Kate for curing my insomnia and getting my health back on track. Earlier this year I experienced chronic insomnia. Sleep issues started a year earlier, but increasingly got worse over time. I was up at 2AM and awake until 10pm, and oddly had loads of energy, but emotionally drained. I tried every possible herb, drug and medicinal product possible. I hated the idea of taking anything to sleep but after weeks of insomnia I would do anything to sleep through the night. My doctor ran all possible blood work and everything came out normal. My natural path ran saliva and blood tests--all were normal. Then I stumbled across Kate's book and immediately signed up to do coaching with her. Within 7 days of some minor changes to the foods I was eating my sleep improved. Over time we added more nutrient rich foods and increased my calorie intake and now I am sleeping through the night. I recognize there are many conflicting messages on what One should eat to be healthy and well, but this approach worked well for my needs. Thanks Kate for helping me get my health back.

I have worked with Kate for years. One the best changes to my daily routine has been incorporating Kate’s miracle drink. I sip it all day long and it has eliminated my sugar cravings which were always my downfall. My weight used to bounce up and down every year, but now, by eating more regularly, not skipping meals and making sure I eat adequate carbs/protein my weight and blood markers have all improved. In fact, I am at one of my lowest weight in decades, and I just turned 61.
Sharon L., Retired, US

I have worked with Kate for 6 months and learned so much. I learned why I get migraines and what to do to prevent them. I used to get migraines almost daily, and now I might get one every 3 months--always driven by stress. I now eat over 2000kcal/day where as before I was barely getting in 1200kcal/day--no wonder I felt so crappy. Kate's book is awesome and I have gotten several and given to family and friends. Thank you for all you have taught me about my health!
Kathleen Brun--Grandmother, US

For the last few years I stuck with Kate's recommendations and menus. I was feeling better but the weight remained around 67-68kg, for some time. And then, a year and half in, the weight started to melting off of me:). No change in my diet or routine. It felt like a miracle because it felt I was eating like a truck driver. By the end of the second year, I was about 62-64kg. Having lost 5-6kg in a rather effortless way. Very grateful for Kate.

I started to work with Kate to heal my mind, body and soul through Nutrition. Kate’s in-depth knowledge of exercise physiology and how our bodies work on a cellular level elevates her beyond professionals in her field. Kate never asks of her clients to do anything that she has not, herself, tried through experimentation. Everything she publishes is solidly researched and backed by scientific evidence. While I am a better Personal Trainer due to my association with Kate… I am a much healthier individual because of our work together to heal my body. As a side benefit, my weight is down more than 40 lbs because of this healing. Kate’s tutelage, expertise, guidance, support, and patience is incomparable. I am Kate’s peer in the Fitness Industry, yet I hired her as both my Trainer and Nutrition Coach. I highly recommend Kate for both Personal Training and Nutrition Coaching. She is worth the investment!
Vanessa P--Nutritionalist, UK

My temps are up to almost 99 degrees, I lost over 10 pounds, my energy is stable through out the day, and my sleep has significantly improved in the last 6 months since working with Kate.
Nick M. General Contractor, US

It has been such a pleasure getting to work with Kate these past few months. Her approach is quite different than anything I had heard before and certainly does not follow the main stream teachings. But after working through several of my "hang ups", it quickly began to make so much sense. I love that her theory is simple and straight forward which makes it easy to make good choices when away from home, traveling etc. I have to come to understand that OJ and milk are my best friends! I also appreciate that some choices are "great" but others are ok to just be "better".

I now truly understand the value of logging your food. It is the only way to know how which direction to move forward and to hold yourself accountable. I would have been lost without the cronometer app. An example is how much animal meat I was eating which was contributing to a high daily fat percentage. I found that eating fish is a great alternative as I can control the amount fat added with how much butter I use, etc. Lastly, I learned that I don't need to be afraid of (the right types) carbs! They are so essential to a well running body and brain.
Karen, T Professional water skier, US

I decided to hire Kate, to help me get regain my health back after 14 years of working at a computer doing missile guidance & control work for various defense contractors led to me slowly getting more & more unhealthy without realizing it. The worst came after going thru two episodes of brain surgery due to an arachnoid cyst which led to further pattern changes in my life and ended up gaining almost 45 lbs. I had tried eating well on my own, but it never seemed to work out.

After starting Kate's with Kate's coaching, I started noticing immediate results, by comparison, and have now lost about 40 lbs to date, going from 215 at my peak fatness down to 172 lbs. I've not only lost weight but gained muscle mass working out with her... look and feel much better... and continue to get compliments from people asking what changes I made and what they need to do to get back in shape also.

I really can't say enough about how impressed I've been with Kate. Her coaching is more than just "eat right". She teaches you how to live better; what to eat, how to plan, where to shop, when to get sleep, provides lots & lots of encouragement, reminds you that we are all just works in progress, and explains the big picture of being healthy...
Heidi B. Personal Trainer, US

It’s been my privilege to have discovered and benefited from the advice and counsel of Kate Deering, who has been my nutritional guide and coach for the last 4 month. I believe that Kate is way out ahead of the field of traditional thinking about what kind of eating is truly good and healthy. What Kate has helped me the most with is my hot flashes. With the food changes and adding a few supplements, it has made them almost non-existent. Thank you Kate for all you do!
Carolyn L. Retired, US

Kate has helped me to understand at my own pace that there is a different perspective on true health. She is always encouraging, thoughtful and supportive. Through her monthly consultations, my sleep, energy and general mood are all more stable. Personally, health wise, I have noticed that my cholesterol and general inflammatory markers have come down. I would thoroughly recommend working the Kate!
James D., Aerospace engineer, US

Per Kates recommendation I have been drinking the gelatin-juice for the last three months. In this short time I have noticed a few significant changes. My cravings for sweets, and complex carbohydrates have diminished tremendously. Even during stressful times I find I am not inclined in the slightest to reach for junk food. It just is not "hitting" the spot. In fact is seems that sweet "spot" has disappeared. Even when I do indulge in my favorite chips and dip/salsa I don't eat the whole bag. Now I am stopping when I am full or had enough. A novel concept! Any cravings for chocolate have disappeared completely.

My energy levels is very steady these days. I can do more and still feel energized. I don't know that it is all due to the drink but I can say it has had a significant impact to not discount drinking it daily. Even when I travel extensively. I found drinking on the plane I am not dehydrated like I would be normally. This is just one of the many changes I received while working with Kate.
Suzanne W. Business Coach, US

Working with Kate has been life changing for me. For the first time after 30+ years of disordered eating, I'm starting to be in tune with what my body wants and needs. I'm letting go of past beliefs and working towards long term healing and happiness in my mind and body.
Nicole H, mother, US

Within the first six months of working with Kate, I was able to put on 10 pounds of lean muscle. In addition, Kate’s coaching on nutrition, training and life has helped my stress level continually decrease.

Kate is unique because she genuinely takes a personal interest in your life and overall health, not just the food and workout. She understands that health is as much mental as nutritional and physical and, instead of simply trying to push you from the outside, she works hard to get you to want to push yourself, and that is what gets results.
Greg M, Attorney, US

I am a woman who will turn 69 this year and I feel like I am in my early 50's! Kate’s advice has helped me feel energized and supported as I move into my next decade. I really cannot believe I feel better now, than I did 10 years ago. I am not afraid to eat anything, as Kate has taught me moderation is key. She has also taught me so much about myself and what I NEED to feel happy and balanced. Cannot recommend Kate enough.
