Here is what women are saying about Katrien's Courses
"I met Katrien Smet when I attended her four-day Health and Wellness Workshop. It had such positive effects on me that I knew I wanted Katrien to serve as my nutritionist.(...)
I can heartily recommend Katrien Smet for her comprehensive knowledge of nutrition, for her ability to create a personalized health plan, for her perceptive listening ability, for her sincere interest in her patients, and for her joyful personality!"
Suzanne Newman
"In my expat life, moving from one country to another, I like to think of the reasons why I had to be in a particular place. Those meaningful persons or moments that made it special and that change your life in some way. One of those reasons in Budapest was meeting Katrien!!!
She helped me change my health and marked me forever, as I approach food and feelings in a different way and have a proper understanding of how my body works and what to do. I love how much she knows about nutrition, quality supplementation, and hormones!!! Her advice was comprehensive and valuable for my health, I’ll bring it with me everywhere I go.
Thank you Katrien!!"
Maria Samper

Everything is backed up with scientific studies. She walks her talk, and lives a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Katrien is truly inspirational and motivating! I am on my lifestyle and wellness journey thanks to Katrien!"

Inez De Nijs
“The course Thrive in Midlife & Beyond was like a ray of the sun. Suddenly I saw all the relationships between my health, my mood, my hormones and my cuisine. Now I understand what is important, what to do and what not to do, what to eat and what not to eat and why. It was a lot of information and facts, but it was necessary to understand the whole context. Of great value was the support of other women who were on the same journey. We all had a lot of AHA moments and became great friends. I am still on track with small steps and activities how to improve my lifestyle. Thanks to Katrien's loving approach I realised the importance of being aware of what I can do for my health. I highly recommend this course!"
