     "I have always had trouble managing my stress...but the past 6 months it had gotten worst. My family life and work schedule (I had also changed jobs) had been so hectic that I wasn’t getting much sleep at night.  I've been waking up in the middle of the night not able to get back to sleep.  Then I'm exhausted during the day.  My periods also had become so irregular and then I would flow heavy for days when I *did* get one.  
     All this had been affecting my job performance and that is when I contacted Sherry.  I'm so glad I did!  She's so thorough and tested me for everything!  Sherry tested me with a saliva test and I found out that my hormones were not working properly.  So Sherry gave me the some hormones, supplements and foods to eat and avoid. My energy has increased greatly.  I feel much better and I'm sleeping better at night! Thanks, Sherry!"

     "I came in to see Sherry because I've been so stressed out from handling lots of things and people and recently my mom died.  I admit I was a bit skeptical about going to someone like Sherry, but I know of two people who have gone to her and have so many positive things to say about her.  
     So, I took a chance and went for a consultation.  I was so impressed with her knowledge and the fact that she does the lab testing and that she conveniently has the vitamins right there in her office, that I signed up with her on the spot...and I never looked back!  
     Sherry is so supportive and is always 'there' for me.  I don't know of anyone else who returns phone calls and emails so quickly and who really cares about me.   Sometimes, I'm a little slow in understanding things and my focus has not been so good, but Sherry so supportive and and explains everything to me about the supplements I'm to take, foods to avoid, what the lab test results mean and grief counseling.  I don't know what I'd do without her help.  Sherry is truly an angel!  I feel like a new woman!" - Katherine


     "Sherry, I have to tell you that following your advise has essentially got the clock moving backwards for me!  Your assessment of my physical status and your recommendations have made such an enormous difference in my physical wellness and in my attitude – I’m younger than before we met!  I had previously been taking vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements, willy-nilly, hoping that they would do something good for me, and trying completely unsuccessfully to deal with what I thought was my major problem – stomach burning and pain.  
     After your very careful analysis, I was flabbergasted to find out what was REALLY going on with my health, and I am totally amazed that the changes you suggested have dealt with the causes of problems that I had thought were things that just came along with old age!  
     It has been so easy to implement and stay with the dietary and supplement program because you explained what was going on and why the changes were needed.  I do not wake up with every-morning headaches, I have no stomach problems at all, my stamina has increased, I have a great deal more energy and more motivation – I’m a happy person now, and thank you several times daily!  Your knowledge, understanding and skills are very much appreciated!" - Patte  

     "I've worked with a few other nutritionists in the past and I must say that I've never met anyone like Sherry Radoff before!  Her knowledge goes far beyond what other nutritionists and even my doctor has told me to do!
     I'm amazed at the things she tells me!  She's so 'up' on the latest information regarding my conditions and how to treat them and what the newest lab tests are and how to take the supplements.  Additionally, I love talking with Sherry.  Her counseling style is so warm and caring that it feels as if she really understands me.  I'm so grateful to have met you, Sherry.  You've changed my life."  - Anne


     "Sherry, Thank you for giving me my life back!  When I came into to see you, I was in state of total exhaustion where I was dragging and everything was an effort.  After about 30 days following the program you designed for me, I felt better than I have in years.  Now I feel energetic and strong again.  I will recommend you to all my friends!" - Karen 


     "Sherry is 'Amazing'.  I've had heartburn for years and Sherry had the solution.  While during the process, I not only met a friend for life, Sherry has integrity, compassion and loves what she does and does it well to the end.  Thank you Sherry, for being you" - Penny

     "I had just had my 40th birthday and I couldn't believe how awful my body felt.  What use to work, just wasn't working anymore.  My mood swings and depression had become worse while at the same time my hot flashes and PMS symptoms were uncontrollable.  My kids kept saying things like 'Mom, what's wrong with you?'    
     I knew I had to do something, so I decided to go to a therapist, who diagnosed me with 'mood disorder' and she prescribed antidepressants.  This didn't quite feel right to me, because the majority of my symptoms happened around the same time every month.  But I went along with it and took the drugs.  Boy, did I hate the way I felt on the drugs I began taking...so I stopped them!  
     Then I tried Herbal Life because it's supposed to make you feel great. But it was not successful for me, and I was desperate.
     Finally, I did a search on the internet for a nutritionist specializing in hormones and stress relief, where I saw Sherry's site.  Immediately, I felt like she was talking to me as I read her web pages.  Then, after speaking to Sherry right after the first phone call, I knew she was the real thing and that I could trust her to help me.  I was right!  
     I was so lucky that I was able to find Sherry, because I had nowhere else to turn. With Sherry's program, I feel great and I’m not taking prescription medicines!  I was so committed, that I followed the my program exactly. Every single time I emailed or called Sherry where I had a question, she was very, very helpful, and very positive.  It always seems like Sherry is concerned about my health and for once, I finally had someone who was really listening.
     Life is good again and now my kids actually like spending time with me!  I'm so grateful to you, Sherry!" - Lauren

     "I first met Sherry five months ago.  When she told me what she would do to teach me and help me lose weight, I thought she was overly optimistic.  I have been on numerous weight loss programs.  You name it.  I have done it!  This is the first time I have truly dealt with the psychological as well as the physical reasons behind my weight issues.  I love the one on one counseling sessions I have with Sherry.  Thanks to Sherry I have really learned how to eat.  I have also discovered new healthy foods that taste good.  I no longer have to eat the whole thing.  I have lost more than 25 pounds.  Thank you for giving me a better and healthier life, Sherry." - Debra


     "Dear Sherry; Thank you very much for helping me lose weight.  I had just about given up, but you basically turned everything around for me.  On thinking about it, there are three things that made a difference. 
     First was the knowledge you provided, not only what to eat but why.  On previous diets, I ate the food or drank the liquid, but never understood what I should eat and how to manage my own diet. Thus, as soon as I reached goal weight, I went back to old habits, and the old weight. That won’t happen now, because I know what to do, and even how to handle it if I make a “mistake.” 
     Second was your analysis of the vitamins and supplements I was taking.  Before I was simply buying based on what a friend said, or what I read in a magazine, without real information about what it was I  personally needed. That’s now changed, and I feel much better.  
     Third, and perhaps most important, was the encouragement you gave me.  You not only provided ideas about what to eat, and what I could buy that was fun, but you also convinced me that I could change. And I did!  I really am grateful.  Thanks again." - Penelope 


     "I unconditionally recommend Sherry Radoff and her work.  She is a true professional who is very thorough, knowledgeable and caring.  I am particularly grateful for her timely recommendation of supplements and the types of blood tests to request from my physician regarding my perimenopause and hormone replacement therapy. Sherry is also very intuitive and really understands the physical and emotional issues people can face when they experience chronic stress and illness.  To me, healing is personal and profound.  
     Whatever Sherry Radoff possesses that provides her with the power to heal with her mind is something anybody should consider significant." - Yasmina


     "Sherry - She is so patient, insightful and of integrity. She made the atmosphere both safe and challenging. Honestly, I've never had anything presented to me in this manner. 
     This group is amazing. I wouldn't know what to change. I am able to be more in tune with my body and eating habits...to make the right choices. So many things have gone on in this past 6 - 8 weeks in my life. This class I know was of God's orchestration in my life to help prepare me for my set time! Praise God!" - Shanan


     "I was always such a thing girl, weight was not ever a major concern. When I was 18 I weighed 117 and never thought about it. Five years later and I had gone from 118 to 165 to 130 to 146. The first time I realized I was gaining weight it was devistating. Since then I have tried everything...Slim Fast, a few other liquid diets like that, Atkins, South Beach, plastic surgery, and simply not eating. I lost about 30lbs using the Advocare Vitamin System. I gained about 5 of it back and hit a plateau. With Advocare it worked for a while, but my body just got used to it and I stopped losing. I gained back some more weight after a year or so as well. 
     I had done it all, and for what? I still looked in the mirror only to feel disappointed in myself and upset. I did an internet search to try to find a solution. I don't even remember what I was searching but Sherry's website popped up. I called her and she immediately understood what I wanted to do. She sent me this packet with tons of questions about me, my eating patterns, and the way I feel. Some of it was stuff I had never even thought about but it all contributed to my problems. After filling out all the paper work and sending it back I met with Sherry. 
     She created a special diet based only on me. It wasn't a general thing to follow, it considered all of my issues. She also went thru what I was missing in my diet, what I had too much of, what made me feel bad or tired, and what vitamins I needed to start taking. She also gave me ideas of how to do diet in a realistic way and offered solutions for keeping some of the foods I love to eat.
     It has been about 6 weeks since I have gone to my first appointment and I have lost 7 pounds so far, and this was over Thanksgiving and Christmas too! It takes time and you have to be strong, but it's easier than any other diet plan I've tried. I've been exercising a lot too, and my body is starting to show results. I fit into clothes that had become a little to snug to wear, and I feel better. I have more energy and I'm just used to eating the right way now. 
     This is something I will continue for life...it's a life choice now. The longer you stick to your plan, the easier it gets. I'm not gonna say there aren't days of frustration, or times I feel like I was to just cheat. But there are things to get me past that, and Sherry makes herself available for any crisis, small or large!!
     My thanks to Sherry and also to myself!" - Stefanie 


     "I've gained a greater awareness about myself and what motivates me to do and act certain ways and how food is used in my life to cover for other things-stresses, boredom, etc. It was very relaxing to get together with others and discuss things we all had in common. 
     I enjoyed the calmness and peaceful atmosphere of the class and the instructor." 
- Joshalyne


     "Before I went to Sherry, I was constantly tired, anxious, uptight and stressed.  I was also so addicted to caffeine that I couldn't make it through the day without my constant coffee 'fixes'.  I couldn't get out bed in the mornings either.  I always seemed to be dragging.  
     But within a couple of days of starting Sherry's aminos program, my anxiety disappeared and I became the most relaxed I had been in years!  During my first meeting with Sherry, she had me take a supplement right in front of her, to get rid of a caffeine craving I was having at that moment.  
     This supplement worked almost immediately and I only had to stay on my supplement program for a few weeks and haven't been tired, anxious or craving coffee in 3 years!  You're the best, Sherry.  Thank you.  Thank you." - David


     "I'm writing to thank you for your wonderful weight loss program and your unbelievably caring support... I've lost 85 pounds and more importantly, I have confidence again!  You have literally changed my life... As I write this, my eyes are filling up with tears. Sherry, how can I thank you?" - Marilyn


     "After trying all the fad diets and losing weight and then gaining it back, feeling sick and tired most of the time, I decided to call Sherry. 
     She showed me that the whole problem of being overweight is not in the diet but in the brain chemical imbalances...I started following her nutrition and behavior modification program and lost my appetite and started eating "normal" to small portions.   
     Sherry helped me understand the real reasons that I was overweight instead of offering me just another new way to starve myself and get weaker and sicker.  The best part is that I made the changes in just a short time.  Thanks for all your help, Sherry!"  - Sue


"Sherry is a great facilitator/teacher." - Tisha


     "The greatest benefit I received from Sherry's class is the realization of the stress factors that leads to my binge eating. God tells us to cast our cares upon Him - so why am I stressed? I'm not casting my cares upon God, so not only am I negatively impacting my spiritual health, I am also negatively impacting my physical health. 
     Then we learned a relaxation technique that incorporates meditating on God's word. This was a total revelation and turnaround for me - as it also tied into a message taught at the Wednesday night bible study regarding studying, praying and meditating on God's word." - Debra


     "My husband and I are really impressed with Sherry Radoff and we consider ourselves pretty savvy in the world of vitamins, health and diets. Sherry is very knowledgeable on how supplements can help with certain problems... like sugar cravings, moods, PMS, thyroid, etc. 
     The good part is that we only take the supplements  for a very short term... and we couldn't believe how different we felt.  Thanks, Sherry for making us look and feel better than we've been in years." 
- Jan & Allan


     "I have struggled with my weight my whole life. I'm forty five years old, was perimenopausal and was drinking 6 glasses of wine every night. I didn't admit to being addicted since I only drank at night. I was tired and weak all day. I would be all out of breath if I had to walk further than three feet.  I had negative thoughts all the time and had trouble sleeping. 
     My life-long friend suggested I see Sherry Radoff.  I was in denial. I was so use to feeling awful that I thought there's no way this is going to help me!  But, eventually I did call Sherry.  The first day on her amino plan had amazing results so I decided to continue. 
     I will tell you I have never been so surprised in all my life...I feel like a new person! I use to lay down most of the day, never go out. Now, I no longer drink and I no longer have naps during the day.  
     I sincerely appreciate your help, Sherry.  I seriously don't know where I'd be without you."  - Shelly


     "I was accustom to holding onto disappointments and rejection from other people to such a degree that I'd eat chocolate and take any kind of painkiller when they pulled a number on me (over the counter, of course, a doctor couldn't find anything physically wrong with me to prescribe meds).  I was also eating huge amounts of food whenever I became angry with relatives or close friends if they hurt me.  I just felt that I was constantly in pain.  
     At one point, I considered suicide and I knew I was in trouble when I began going to happy hour at the bar around the corner from where I live.  At that point, I had already had heard about Sherry's work and thought if I didn't call her right away, I'd start drinking compulsively too!  I am so glad I called her when I did.  
     Sherry basically saved my life and gave me new one!  Her strong compassionate nature is what did it for me.  Her approach is very loving yet tough at the same time.  Just the right mix to get my attention.  
     I highly recommend Sherry.  She will get to the bottom of what's really bothering you and she works fast." - Linda


     "Sherry, I just wanted to say - from the bottom of my heart - your services are simply awesome... Great value, unbelievable support.  When I first saw you, I couldn't eat without feeling horrible afterwards (bloating, gas, birping, indigestion, wanting to throw up all the time).  I also had severe headaches and at times suffered from asthma and sinus problems. 
     Now, with your expertise, I'm proud to say, I'm free from all that!!  You taught me that my favorite foods were causing my upsets and what to avoid!  I especially like the tasty substitutes you've suggested.  
     Sherry...you're a God-send!  Blessings to you!" - Anne


     "My fatigue and muscle aches are gone.  Sherry, you are great.  My candida has disappeared, thanks to your ability to identify my symptoms.  I'm so glad you caught it in time...otherwise my already weakened immune system would have gotten worse.  
     I will definitely spread the word about your services and about how knowledgeable you are." - Jim
