Remedy Pharms’s Nutrition Services:

Services offered to help determine the individualized nutritional status and health needs of your body include:

BIA  (Body Scan Bioimpedence Analysis)

Help determine fluid and nutritional status by measuring body composition.  4 main components are analyzed.

1. Lean Body Mass – muscle.
2. Fat Mass – a key biomarker of aging.
3. Body hydration – Are you getting enough water? Are you toxic?
4. Cellular Health – Are you aging faster than your biological years?

If weight loss is your goal, getting a baseline BIA and follow- ups are invaluable.  It is critical for your health and long term weight loss success  to make sure the pounds you are losing  is fat and not muscle.

Susan’s philosophy is grounded in helping people support their body's natural healing systems through nutrition and lifestyle balance. She believes that everyone is unique and requires a customized approach to wellness.

She  believes strongly in an integrative approach to health and is convinced we are our own best healer.  Anti-aging is not just about living longer. It is about living better. It is about looking and feeling younger, restoring and maintaining mental function and clarity, improving strength and energy levels, and decreasing the risk of so called “age related diseases”. The body has a remarkable ability to heal itself given the right tools. The core of good health is good nutrition.


Susan’s main goal is twofold: to educate people on healthy nutrition and lifestyle in today's modern world of obsession with diets and medicines, and to demystify the concept of "health." Eating is natural and nutrition should be enjoyable and beneficial to the body. Susan takes a special interest in people who have chronic illnesses and would like to improve their nutritional status and lifestyle.
