About Angela Pifer
I'm a certified nutritionist, blogger, writer, and mom. My passion is teaching people how to live a healthy diet-free life. Most of us don't grow up with an education in nutrition.

I want to help people make sense of this information by transforming these conflicting messages into a simple straight forward plan of action towards better health.
