Many people espouse the impact of nutrition on health, but there are fewer of us who have experienced its full effects firsthand. Private chef Ariane Resnick in Los Angeles survived both chemical poisoning and chronic/neurological late stage Lyme disease, spending about half of her early 30s laid up with chronic illness. She utilized only natural methods to heal, eschewing the typical long-term antibiotics given for Lyme patients, and has been free of any Lyme symptoms since December 2010. (At her sickest with Lyme, Ariane had fibromyalgia so severe, she could not walk more than a few steps unassisted.)
The chemical poisoning that affected Ariane in 2012 left her with cognitive impairment so intense that she received a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s from Cedars-Sinai; in 2013 she made a complete recovery via only diet and holistic remedies.
The combination of Ariane’s salubrious upbringing and nutrition education, her experiences as a private chef, her years spent in the modeling industry with its focus on size maintenance, and her time naturally handling illness have given her a solid breadth of knowledge on the role that food can play in one’s well-being. Ariane does nutritionist consulting for clients with an emphasis on getting in touch with your body and its unique needs rather than focusing only on what foods are “right” for your ailment. Just like with her cooking, she can accommodate any dietary restrictions. Nutritional consulting can be scheduled in conjunction with private chef work, or on its own. Professional chef training can focus on preparing foods by the best nutritional methods, as can culinary instruction for home cooks. She welcomes partnering with nutrition or nutritional brands, and she does consulting and recipe development for brands (products, dining establishments, and more) eager to boost saleability because of their nutritional content.
In addition to nutrition, she offers wellness consultations in person or via Zoom, with a focus on recovering from diseases naturally. Ariane is living proof of the adage, “Fall down eight times, get up nine,” and is always happy to share her insight. Interested in this service? Send Ariane an email detailing your needs, and she’ll be happy to schedule an initial discussion.
