About Me
Amanda Baker, IHP2 CNC
Since 2014 Amanda has been a Certified Nutrition Coach helping clients understand their metabolism, energy needs, macronutrient requirements and how to cook easy and delicious meals and snacks to help look and feel their absolute best. After she became a mom in 2023, she decided to deepen her knowledge with another intensive training. During her mat leave she completed 2 levels under the Integrative Health Practitioner Institute developed by board certified Naturopath Dr. Stephen Cabral. This training taught her how to interpret a myriad of functional lab tests that you can do from the comfort of your own home. Giving you incredibly deep and thorough knowledge of your current health and biology to achieve optimal health and results like never before! Amanda is extremely passionate about preventative health and doing lab work because it has helped her and her family achieve outstanding health and the peace that knowing everything on the inside is reflecting their wellness on the outside. Amanda is also a personal trainer and Gym owner at successfully run F45 Hamilton Downtown for over 6 years. She lives and breathes health and wellness and looking forward to helping you achieve optimal health today!
Transform Your Health
If you feel you've tried every diet and exercise program without seeing results, there may be underlying issues that we can uncover through a variety of at-home lab tests. For instance, difficulty digesting food can prevent nutrients from reaching where they are needed. You might be eating very healthily but could have a high sensitivity to certain foods without realizing it, as reactions can sometimes be delayed by up to three days. Additionally, bacterial overgrowth or parasites could be causing problems. The presence of heavy metals can deplete your body of critical minerals necessary for healthy hormone function, immune health, and stress response. Chronic inflammation can also hinder your body's ability to recover and heal properly. These are common reasons why people struggle to feel well and lose weight despite maintaining a clean diet and regular exercise. I knew there had to be more to the story. People were following everything to a T and still struggling to make progress, and I was determined to help them uncover these issues.
Feeling less than optimal should not be the standard.
You deserve to look and feel incredible TODAY!

My coaching sessions with Amanda have truly been a life changing experience. I have learned so much about my relationship with food, and what works for me to feel and look my best. I love that there is no fad diet or quick short term fix with her, this has been about creating a healthy lifestyle that is completely attainable. Amanda is so passionate about what she does, and she's literally a fountain of knowledge, it's impossible not to be inspired working with her! At 44 years old, I am in better shape now than I was in my 20's and 30's, my workouts and endurance just gets stronger and stronger every week. I have such an understanding now of the relationship between diet, exercise and supplementation that I never knew, and I am excited every time we have a session to learn more! My body composition has completely changed for the better. I've lost body fat, and I've gained muscle I didn't even know I was capable of growing! All it takes is that first step, and investing in yourself is really priceless.
Thank you Amanda for leading me on this journey!!

Amanda positively transformed my life to help me become the best version of myself. I had two babies under two and was struggling with my health. Amanda took the time to get to know me and developed a long-term sustainable holistic plan that aligned with my lifestyle to heal my body, rebalance my hormones and build my confidence. Best of all, she provided me with the tools and education to keep making great decisions for myself and my family. She is one of the most kind, passionate and educated humans and I hope anyone looking for support gets an opportunity to work with her.

I had an excellent experience working with Amanda to develop a game plan to help me achieve my fitness & nutrition goals. Over several weeks, Amanda and I had a series of one-on-one calls where she provided guidance related to macronutrients, fat loss and muscle gain and supplements to support my goals. She made some great recommendations tailored specifically to my busy lifestyle, habits and symptoms. She always followed up after our calls with summary emails with additional information and helpful tips. I've implemented several recommendations she made to my daily life & would highly recommend her services to anyone.
