Thoughts from Linda:
"I'm passionate about the healing power of whole foods and my years of experience has taught me that all nutrition matters; not only the nourishment that we give our body with the foods we eat, but also how we nourish our mind and spirit. I invite you to browse this site to find out more!"
Hi there! Here’s a little bit more about me so you can get to know me better. I’m a busy mom to three athletic teenagers, a wife and an entrepreneur. I enjoy cooking (thanks to my Mom, of course!), reading and traveling. I've completed a few triathlons and running races (when I was a bit younger - LOL). My latest fun adventure was scuba diving with my family in the Florida Keys. (All 5 of us are Certified Open Water Scuba Divers). My personal goal is hiking to the top of the highest peak in each US state. So far, I have completed 25 out of 50….so I'm halfway there! This might take me a while but it's not a race for me. This goal is about the journey and all of the things I learn along the way. I'm just trying to live my best life, just like so many of you are!
Linda's Story
Nutrition Matters, LLC first began in Hoboken, NJ in February 2005 and is now located in Bergen County, New Jersey. Much of my previous work was with Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 companies helping individuals and groups find creative ways to integrate healthier habits into their busy lives. Together, we looked at the root cause of what was ailing people and we found solutions that were suited to their unique nutritionally-driven biochemical needs and personal goals. It's like a personalized recipe so you can enjoy life with optimal health!
"Nutrition is about more than the food we choose to eat for our body. It's about how we nourish ourselves in other ways too including mind and spirit. We are all a collection of amazing synergies"
- Linda McLachlan, MA, RDN, FMN, CLT
Her Approach
Through my own journey and from working with thousands of people throughout the years, I've learned how food not only provides calories for our bodies but how it also provides information that speaks to our unique biochemistry. The food we eat communicates with our individual chemical make-up and has a direct influence on whether we end up with disease in our body or not. In fact, common ailments such as headaches, constipation, brain fog and fatigue are actually symptoms of something in our body that is out of balance.
Even still, nutrition is about more than just the food we choose to eat for our body. Nutrition is about how we nourish ourselves in other ways too including mind and spirit. It's why all nutrition matters. I welcome the opportunity to join you on this journey to help restore your unique nutritional balance so you can enjoy optimal health. Welcome to my site!
