Empowering health & healing

Jane Yagoda, NC, ONC

For me, the magic is that combination of food and science. It’s powerful.

 

 

I have wonderful food memories!

From savoring a bowl of tangy sour cream with sliced bananas at 7 years old in my backyard in Miami to oysters in Seattle, the freshest salad ever at Bon Terra Vineyard in Mendocino, gazpacho with diced watermelon in Barcelona, and at Marché Raspail in Paris, where I discovered my love for leeks.

A food career was inevitable. I first worked in publishing as a food editor, recipe developer, and food stylist. Small private parties became full-time personal chef work for clients going through cancer. That was when I started thinking about food and healing, and it hit me—this is my calling.

I expanded my education with evidence-based holistic nutrition and then oncology nutrition certification, creating my unique menu of oncology nutrition consulting and support.

What do I love about what I do? That moment when a client takes a bite of something really fresh and simple I’ve just shown them how to make, and they exclaim, OMG, this is amazing! Or doing research on a client’s cancer situation and putting their puzzle pieces together.

I feel grateful to my clients for allowing me to do this for them. I hope I can do this for you.
