FAQ
About my consultations
-
I have experience working with various autoimmune illnesses. I specialize in gastrointestinal dysfunction which is often behind autoimmunity. I work with varying conditions correlated to immune dysfunction, like:
Women’s health (endometriosis, adenomyosis, PCOS).
Autoimmune conditions (Hashimoto’s, celiac disease, Crohn’s, fibromyalgia, skin conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, ulcerative colitis, MS...).
Gut dysbiosis and gut permeability (candida, parasites, SIBO, h. pylori, histamine intolerance).
Mast Cell Activation Disorder (MCAD/MCAS).
CIRS and mold illness.
Iatrogenic harm recovery (harm from benzodiazepines, antidepressants, hormonal birth control, antibiotics).
I do not work with people with eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, food addiction), cancer patients, pregnant women, and children.
-
Healing the gut is a slow process which can take several months or even years! It’s impossible to revert a case of dysbiosis and/or gut permeability with just one consultation and it’s impossible to revert “chronic” illness in a month.
For this reason, I offer three-consultation coaching packages with follow-up for people who are dealing with chronic health problems, or who have been to several practitioners but haven’t found what works for them yet.
-
Please email ana@mscarnivore.com briefly explaining your case and what kind of coaching package you’re interested in.
After you book your consultation, you will receive a confirmation email with:
A link to our Zoom call.
A Google Docs form about your health that you must fill up at least one week before our consultation.
In this form, you can also attach your bloodwork and any complementary testing you have done prior to your consultation.
-
Mi booking platform offers safe credit card payment via Stripe.
If you wish to use any other payment method, I also accept bank transfers via Revolut bank and cryptocurrency.
-
Yes, you can pay a 50% deposit of the total cost when you book a 2, 3, or 5 month plan.
The remaining 50% will be charged to your initial payment method 7 days before your first consultation.
-
My protocols include:
Bio-individual nutritional recommendations adapted to your personal situation. Depending on the case, I will recommend a carnivore, animal-based, AIP, pro-metabolic, or some other approach adapted to your personal needs.
Bio-individual supplementation recommendations to help you improve or revert your health problem. I will also provide a supplement schedule, as well as links to buy them and an explanation of what each supplement is for.
Lifestyle recommendations: Information about detoxification, non-toxic cosmetics, avoiding blue light, sun exposure, vagus nerve activation, etc.
List of producers and resellers of grass-fed meat and raw dairy products (only for customers in Spain).
If you live outside of Spain, I can also offer you farm recommendations to source your food from in some countries such as the US and the UK, or guide you so you know how to buy the best quality food available wherever you are.
Bio-individual recommendations to get bloodwork and other complementary functional tests, if necessary.
All this will be explained in a straightforward way, so you can follow the protocol easily and if you have any questions, you can ask me anything via email.
I always reply in 24-48 hours during weekdays (excluding local holidays).
-
I will send your bio individual protocol within 15 days of the first consultation.
-
Tests for each individual are recommended on a case-by-case basis. If you have questions about tests that might be helpful for you specifically, we will talk about this in our initial consultation. Normally, I recommend at least getting complete blood work done after our first consultation.
In some cases, it’s also advised to get complementary testing done like a GI map, hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA), organic acids test (OATS), etc. with Teletest (EU clients can use discount code “MSCARNIVORE” for 10% off your purchase) or other laboratory that is available to you in your country.
I only recommend the tests that I consider are necessary to figure out the root cause of your problem. I want you to invest your money on quality food and supplementation over excess testing, but you must be aware that many times testing is necessary to find out the root cause of your health problem, and health insurance companies usually do not pay for those tests so you will have to pay them out-of-pocket.
-
I always adapt my protocols to what is available in your country of residence! It makes no sense to recommend supplements that you need to ship all over the world and pay import taxes for.
In my protocols I always include a link to the supplements I recommend that are available for purchase at online stores that are based in your country, whether you live in Spain, the USA, France, or Mexico.
-
Of course! Many of my clients are ex-vegans and ex-vegetarians. I personally followed a plant-based diet for 9 years so I know first hand what late stage veganism entails!
-
I recommend that you check that your webcam and microphone work correctly, and you login to our video call from a private place where you have a good internet connection.
I also recommend you make a list of your symptoms and your health story so I can help you as best as I can.
You don’t need to take notes during our consultation, my protocols are very detailed and always bio-individual, and if you have any questions after you can send me an email.
-
No. Currently I live between Spain and the UK and all my consultations are online via Zoom.
-
Having good mental health, a well-balanced nervous system, and overcoming trauma is key to enjoying good gut health: Your gut is your second brain!
You can take the best supplements in the word and hire the best practitioners, but if you don’t deal with emotional and trauma root causes, it will be very complicated for you to fully heal.
This is why I work as a team with a licensed therapist. If you need psychological support during your healing process, we can work together.

About ancestral eating and carnivore coaching
-
Not it most cases, but it depends on your particular case. Some do better with complete elimination of all plant foods to lower inflammation and heal; others do not need to be as strict and can benefit from eating carbs (carbs are not the problem, your gut health is!)
Personally, I found success with going 100% carnivore to overcome and heal my food intolerances. However, I work with many clients that heal to the same extent while including low-antinutrient vegetables, raw dairy, and other plant foods.
This is not about following some diet dogma. It’s about teaching you how to nourish yourself and conquer your food intolerances!
-
In my personal experience I was able to reverse the gut damage caused by undiagnosed (30+ years) celiac disease, MCAS, histamine intolerance, chronic fatigue, endometriosis, Hashimoto’s, and iatrogenic harm.
I am well aware that allopathic medicine claims that all these diseases are “chronic”, and I was even legally disabled at one point of my life, but since 2018 I have been symptom free and my life is no longer limited by those diseases.
This is my personal experience and I have centered my life around healing for years. Your results might vary depending on many factors such as stress, sun exposure, unsolved trauma, physical activity, exposure to toxins, etc. No matter what your current health status is like, there is always room for improvement!
-
Organ means come highly recommended for their nutritional benefits, but they are not 100% essential.
-
Normally it’s recommended to reduce or eliminate carbohydrates, even when they come from animal sources.
Individualization is essential: Some people need to fully eliminate them from their diets to progress while others can follow a low or moderate carb diet and still see results. We will look to see how your body handles carbohydrates to determine what may be best for you to heal.
-
It depends on what you call normal.
My goal is to help you heal your gut so you can eat real, unprocessed foods again - including carbs like seasonal tubers and fruit.
If you want to eat pizza, bread, and beer again, you should think about it: What’s the point of going back to the diet that made you sick?
-
I don’t offer any kind of weight-loss plan. Weight gain is often a product of inflammation and a dysfunctional metabolism.
I teach you how to change your lifestyle so you know how to nourish yourself following a species-appropriate diet that minimizes inflammation.
As a Naturopath, my job is to educate you so that you learn to follow a species-appropriate anti-inflammatory way of eating and a healthy lifestyle.
With that being said, it’s very common to lose weight over time while following this type of plan. However, if you have an autoimmune illness, focus on healing your metabolism from the inside out which can take some time.
-
You probably suffer from hypochlorhydria, a condition marked by low levels of stomach acid. It can happen after years of following unhealthy diets, taking anti-acid medication, or due to chronic stress.
It is a very common problem that I address during my consultations. If you love meat but you think you cannot tolerate it, I can help you!
-
I’m mostly self-taught!
Because of my health problems I had to quit my former career in NYC and become a Naturopath and health coach.
Most of my knowledge is the result of my own research and self-experimentation for the past 10 years or so.
I also studied Naturopathy in a CMA (The Complementary Medical Association) accredited school and I am an Expert in Mycotherapy certified by the IMMA (Integrative Mycomedicine Association).
I have also taken several courses on women's hormonal health, gut health, detoxification, mineral balancing, heavy metals, and autoimmunity.
I was one of the first people to start sharing information online about the carnivore diet in Spanish! I have been following a carnivore/animal-based diet since 2018 and have been working full-time as a health coach since 2020.
I have also experimented with a pro-metabolic/Ray Peat inspired diet and as of late 2023 I am following a mineral balancing program.
If you’d like to learn my story and how I became a carnivore, you can listen to this interview I recorded with Aaron (@carnivorebroadcaster) for his Carnivore for Life podcast.
I am always learning new things and am always occupied with some course or webinar about medicinal mushrooms, gut health, heavy metal toxicity, trauma and health, autoimmune illness, or simply reading studies about health topics I am interested in.
If you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask me!
