Natural nutritionist Vardit Kohn has been interested in food for as long as she can remember, although her path to healthy nutrition took her via linguistics, tourism and a Marketing MBA in London first. Gourmet cooking turned to healthy eating in the early 90s, when self-experimentation with the effects of food brought about some incredible results, and a fast move from a largely student diet to a ‘Fit For Life’ one (yes, that iconic book).

Following the birth of her eldest daughter 13 years ago, Vardit channeled her life-long passion for food and her now growing penchant for healthy eating into a two-year practitioners’ course at London’s College of Natural Nutrition. She has been in nutritional practice ever since, seeing and advising clients; publishing books and writing extensively on the subject; speaking in public; working with top international companies who run health and wellness programmes for their employees; acting as a trend tracker and food consultant; and sharing her vast knowledge through regular cooking demonstrations, talks and audience circles.

“Passion rarely fails, and it’s this passion about keeping people well, energized and in top form that fuels my work. I want to inspire everyone – no! I want to shout it from the top of every roof! – that you can catch health just as you can catch disease. It’s right there, at the tip of your fork. You just need to make the right decisions and stick to them”.

Vardit leads individuals and groups through detox schemes and has experimented widely with various cleansing and fasting methods. With her, what you see is what you get: she walks the talk and practises with joy everything she preaches. She has been a devoted Iyengar yoga pupil for more than 20 years and sees close links between yoga and natural healing philosophy. She has a special weakness for inspirational people, sunshine and human warmth.

Vardit lives in the Netherlands and brings up husband and three daughters the natural way.
