I’m grateful for her unlimited giving of knowledge and care for us to improve and grow in this field not only as clients but as athletes and individuals, physically, mentally, and psychologically.
She helped heal my relationship with food. I now know what my body needs when and how to feed it. I now find balance throughout my day, as I am a person who loves to have a donut with coffee in the morning. I still eat my donut and have it fit within my macros as I need it. I know for the rest of my meals where the deficit of nutrients is and I then fill in what is missing. This way, I have my macronutrients and micronutrients with a specific needed caloric daily intake of protein, carbs, fats, and of course, minerals and vitamins.
As an athlete, my performance improved because I started to focus on the details which are also fundamental. My stamina, strength, and endurance were optimized and my fatigue and sense of tiredness decreased. I also recover faster and better especially when I have multiple training sessions within one day.
In this field of sports and for athletes, it is important to be aware of all the new evidence and research out there regarding different sports and the demands of nutrition for each athlete. Very few people have the knowledge and capacity in this wide field, and it’s rare that you find someone who has the passion and interest, Dr. Mariam is one of those people. From my own experience and work with her, I believe she is the best above all. God Bless.
