Meet Andrea Assouad, MS, CN
Andrea Assouad is a Certified Nutritionist with her Master of Science degree in Integrative Medicine with a concentration in Nutrition. After working for 15+ years in the food, nutrition and agricultural marketing communications space, she knew it was time to begin empowering individuals more directly, helping to improve their quality of life through evidence-based wellness.
Raised on a generational farm of the Palouse region of Washington State, unknowingly, seeds were planted for which Andrea would come to discover a deep personal passion of nutrition as medicine as an adult. Frustrated with the lack of answers and individualized care while supporting her family through various health scares, she sought out a different approach to healing and preventative care.

"Thank you, Andrea and Christina, for the guidance that you both provided during my Kick Start Package.
My Sea Spruce Journey:
Last July, I did a random google search and came across Sea Spruce and to be honest I was hesitant to try it out because I lost hope in trying to seek medical help in managing my hormonal issues, (PCOS, weight gain, fatigue, GI Issues, and etc.) I am glad that Sea Spruce reframed my perspective about my ongoing health issues. At first, I was all about losing weight but now I am all about healing myself holistically, and that everything needs to start from within.
Thanks a ton Andrea for answering all my questions, for taking the time to do your research to provide me an accurate information. Thank you for being transparent with your recommendations and always asking me how I feel about it--- this makes me feel included in my care, I think we both shared our common grounds which is a huge thing for me. I think what made my journey remarkable was our teamwork, collaboration and mutuality."
