Missing Periods, Anorexia, and Osteoporosis w/ Barbara Madimenos, IIN, FDN-P

Barbara Madimenos is a functional health coach located in Montreal Quebec with a focus on women's metabolic and endocrine disorders. How she ended up working in this space with this specialty all started when she was just 13 years old and diagnosed with anorexia nervosa. In the midst of her disorder she also developed severe hormonal imbalances such as amenorrhea, hypothyroidism, anxiety, alcohol and drug abuse, as well as self harm coping mechanisms, all in which led her down a hole. Finally, in October of 2018, she was diagnosed with osteoporosis,  and at the end of her rope, she decided to try and recover on her own by educating herself on the foundations of what it is to heal metabolically. Today, at 28, she has successfully recovered and is passionate in educating women on doing the same through a food first approach with lifestyle and supplemental modifications.  You can find out more about Barbara by going to www.barbaramadimenos.ca.
