Client Testimonials:
"Liz is a guru not only in the kitchen, but also she makes understanding of nutrition accessible, practical, functional and creative. I came to learn about how to make quick and healthy meals and came away with a working knowledge of how to boost my metabolism, replace filler foods in my diet, maximize my use of super foods and a few very insightful kitchen tips.
I would recommend this class, and Liz as a mentor, to anyone I know. Taking a class with Liz allowed me to conceptualize nutrition, sample amazing, tasty and healthful foods and surround myself with great company for the evening."
- Emily Robinson
"I worked with Elizabeth for 3 months last year. Her teachings and cooking recipes until today have stuck with me. Liz is full of encouragements and drive. She embodies energy, happiness and motivation. No kidding you’ll want that in your life too! It’s been almost a year now and I feel healthier and stronger w/ an improved sense of well being by changing my eating habits and lifestyle. I fully recommend Liz to anyone, I believe she can guide you so that these little changes will be permanent. Thank you!

"Thanks so much for all of your help - working with you has been a pleasure and really helped me feel more in control of my diet. I am eating less and I feel less hungry because I am eating the right things now! I like your approach much better than the "HTFU!" one usually gets when inquiring about weight loss. I also got myself a bag of flax seeds, raw caocao powder and some frozen wheatgrass juice and started using them in my recovery smoothies. I am officially "that guy" now."
-Brian Bachor
You are amazing!!!!!
I ran the half in 1:45:29.... Last time I did it in 1:54.
The best part, I felt amazing through the race. It was challenging, very hot and humid. I pushed myself but seriously I feel like I have a different body.
I’m sooooo grateful. I’m amazed how different my body feels now that I’m nurturing it with the best nutrition possible.
Today I’m sore and happy.
Thank you so much!!

"I had such a great time last night. I am always looking for places to go and new people to meet in NYC and what better way to do it then through a cooking class!
I have a constant battle with wanting to do better by my body with exercise and healthy eating but need some direction and always need new ways to reinvent myself. The Healthy Express Cooking Class, not only introduced me to new, amazing foods and ingredients, it taught me how to substitute for healthier items without sacrificing taste. I can't wait to make the dishes on my own! My favorite part about the class was that you taught us what nutritious benefits each ingredient had! I love that because it makes me want to use these ingredients more often!
I can't wait for the April 29th class and for others to come! I'm excited to have found such a wonderful and educational, after work activity! "
-Amy Bauer
" The Healthy Express Cooking Class has inspired me to get back on track with the proper eating habits. Often I stray to take out and unhealthy habits; This class was all about quick healthy almost effortless meals. I learned all about different foods that I didn't realize were beneficial in so many different ways. I plan to try the recipes in my own kitchen and am looking forward to learning more and eating right. This class was a great way to kick-start my new lifestyle."
- Rachel Austin
"The Peak Performance E-book provided me with wealth of knowledge. The healing properties of the foods we digest were so informative. This is one of the most comprehensive nutritional books I have read. The recipes are delicious and simple to prepare. I feel more energetic and am excited about continuing this nutritional lifestyle."

LIZ STEIN CHANGED MY LIFE!
"My name is Danielle Moir and I have been suffering with Endometriosis for twenty years. I have had a couple of surgical procedures to treat my condition, only for the endometriosis to return. Each month I would be bedridden with intense pain, eased only slightly by heavy doses of prescription medication. The ramifications of the medication was causing all kinds of problems on a health and wellness level, not to mention the emotional toll caused by the absence in my toddlers life.
I came to Liz in August of 2008 desperate for a solution. It was clear that traditional medicine and additional surgery was no longer an option, changing my focus to nutrition seemed the only choice. My initial goal was to be pain free 6 months to a year of our beginning with the hopes of not having to spend another day in bed around my menstrual cycle. I am ASTONISHED to say that within 4 weeks, yes, 4 weeks, I was completely off my prescription meds and was indeed pain free. For the last six months through a change in diet, (most notably the elimination of dairy for my condition), and the addition of vitamins and supplements, I have been LIVING my life in a way I have not experienced as an adult. I have not spent a single day in bed and have truly been pain free. It feels soooooo miraculous to me and the changes were so incredibly effortless that it has provided me with a new curiosity of how nutrition plays an incredible and vital role in our wellness.
I feel it crucial to mention that I am not what one would call a naturalist and was completely skeptical, quite frankly afraid that I would not be able to commit to a shift in how to nourish my body on a more wholesome level. With the incredible guidance and wonderfully supportive nature of Liz Stein, I have a more rich and balanced life."
Eternally Grateful!
Danielle
"Liz offers tremendous value in her cooking classes. Liz's knowledge about the nutrients and benefits of each food she uses in her cooking is extremely insightful. Not only does she address the benefits of each ingredient in the dishes she demonstrates, but she also provides an opportunity for hands-on cooking and we enjoyed a full meal that we created at the end!"
- Felicia Holtzman
"I have been working with Liz for about five weeks. Since I have changed my eating, I have more energy, lost several pounds and best of all, my cholesterol went down 30 points and I already had good cholesterol! I love having more energy and I love that I can fit into my jeans that I haven't worn all winter!"
- N.B
"This was a great class. The different meals were not only healthy, but also very fast and easy to prepare. I've incorporated some of the recipes in our weekly meal plan and my daughter and I are both feeling much more energetic. I have actually lost two pounds so I must be doing something right!"
- Barbara Zinkant
"I think the most beneficial thing about the class was learning new, easy
recipes. The hardest thing about cooking healthfully is really just
knowing which ingredients to combine to create a satisfying, delicious AND
healthy meal. It was great learning how to take a not so healthy meal -
like quesadillas - and make it healthy."
- Carla Vass
"Since completing the program, I have become more aware of which food my body needs. I shop seasonally and do my best whenever I can to buy organic. I don't think of food as calories any more, but instead nutrients. I no longer obsess about calories and weight and instead I think about what my body needs. I am completely conscious of what I put in my body and how it affects my every day life in terms of immunity, exercise, sleep and moods"
Favorite recipe you now incorporate into your diet?
"There are so many recipes that I like, but the one that I truly incorporate into my daily diet is the breakfast quinoa and because I like to have something sweet after dinner, I always have some brown rice pudding stored in the fridge"
- Dayna Castella
"I learned so much thanks to you but was especially unaware of the nonfat/sugar combination. I was in the market for two hours today reading labels in awe of how I was on the wrong track. Thanks so much for setting me straight. I have a whole new outlook on ingredients"
-D.B. , Sugar Blues Participant
"I love the Eating for Energy Cookbook! My favorite recipes so far are the Ginger Pear Smoothie, Blueberry Antioxidant Smoothie, Energy Balls and the Kale salad with avocados. They are so simple to prepare and I feel like I am really providing my body with great nutrients. The glossary of foods has become so important to me"
