My experience with Trina has been unhelpful. I would not recommend wasting your time or finances on what she has to offer.

Trina is an outstanding nutritionist. Not only does she really know nutrition, supplementation, and much more, but she has a wonderful professional, yet gentle way of working with her clients. She is caring, thoughtful, intelligent and diligent. She spent a great deal of time researching a difficult nutritional situation I faced, and helped me tremendously both with the condition as well as being an emotional support that was invaluable. I very highly recommend Trina to you. She is a true gem!

After several severe bouts of diverticulitis, I finally found relief and healing with Trina. She immediately recognized and understood my symptoms and other contributing factors. After generously sharing her knowledge and expertise, I was able to restore my normal diet and feel healthy again. I don't bash traditional medicine, but a hand-out that says "after an episode of diverticulitis, start with a low fiber diet and work up to a high fiber diet" is inadequate care. I'm so grateful to have met Trina.

This review is way overdue. I began seeing Trina about 2 years ago with some health issues. I was immediately impressed with her kind manner and attentiveness to everything I said. She is thorough and asks questions which lead to some very good advice. She suggested that I alter some of the food I was eating the results were close to miraculous. Being a licensed nutritionist in Chinese herbalist she was able to design herbal tincture mixtures for me which have been amazing as well. We are moving out of the area and I intend to keep in touch with her by Skype. She also offers phone appointments

I cannot say enough good things about Trina. When my doctors could not help me with my diagnosis of Micro-Scopic Colitis, I was referred by my OB/GYN to Farmacopia. Trina new right away how to approach my issue. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to the digestive system. Finally, after nine months of treatment and learning to live gluten/dairy free I am on the road to recovery. She also taught me how to handle relapses, which I have a several along the way. It is not an easy disease to live with but with Trina's help I am finally able to live a normal life again.

Trina has been a lifesaver. I struggled before meeting her with all kinds of digestive and inflammation issues that had me feeling depleted and susceptible to chronic sinus problems. Every aspect of her approach is thorough, extremely professional, warm and caring. She has an astounding amount of knowledge, and understood very quickly what the root cause of my concerns were. I'd seen many, many practitioners over the years, before finding Trina, and she was the one to finally figure out what was going on. I've been following all of her recommendations, and check in with her regularly
