melissa ieraci - instructor
For over four years, Melissa worked as a Paramedic in Ontario Canada, seeing patients with diseases and chronic health issues due to poor nutrition and lifestyle choices. During this time she was unknowingly experiencing her own health issues.Working long hours and wanting to perform her best, Melissa lived on coffee but was tired all of the time, felt stressed, anxious, and despite efforts in the gym and in the kitchen, could not get rid of midsection fat.Everything came to a crashing halt in 2017 when she was diagnosed with a brain tumour on her pituitary gland that was releasing dangerously high levels of cortisol, the body's stress hormone.After brain surgery, a diploma in Natural Nutrition, and 10+ years in the health and fitness industry, Melissa uses action and habit based coaching to cut through the noise of the health and fitness space. Performance Nutrition drives results. If you are a high performer looking to achieve your best— whether that is in a physical, cognitive or professional sense, you are in the right place.Currently consulting with strength coaches and fitness facilities in North America on nutrition, instructor at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, clients across many sport, youth, collegiate and professional and speaks for major sporting associations and fitness conferences internationally.
