Meet New York Health Coach Elisa Haggarty

Elisa Haggarty is a Functional Nutritionist & Lifestyle Expert and founder of Culinary Farmacy . She practices root cause resolution that means she works to find the triggers of disease in the human body and provides practical action steps on how to address health goals.

Elisa is tired of the status quo that posits disease as synonymous with old age and your genetics as your fate, and firmly believes that each meal is a chance to impact mental and physical health. She lives in Brooklyn, NY with her two crazy kittens.

These are a few more things you should know about her.

Q: Why did you become a health coach?

A: I became a health coach because I learned very early on that recipes and information are only a small part of the healing plan. My work is about being a detective in addressing root cause resolution and providing a framework that helps patients create a new normal around their lifestyle and diet. Information is helpful, but connection and accountability are the greatest benefits that health coaches provide and I love sitting in that role.

Q: What’s the best part of your job?

A: The best part of my job is when everything clicks for a patient and they have that “aha” moment where they get the value of upgrading the diet and lifestyle.

Q: What are the three things you do every day that make it better?

A: Exercise, eat chocolate and do something good for someone else.

Q: If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be?

A: Brooklyn, NY 😉

Q: Last great book you read?

A: Rising Strong by Brene Brown

Q: Favorite food?

A: I am currently in love with green plantains. I can make chips, “hash”, muffins, wraps and much more.

Q: Best piece of advice you’ve ever been given.

A: Life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you.
