Dr. Kristen Allott is a naturopathic physician, international speaker, and author. As a pioneering advocate for the use of whole foods nutrition for improving energy, mental clarity, decision-making, and treatment of mental health and addiction disorders, Dr. Allott is passionate about helping patients realize tangible results. Over two decades, she has refined her expertise in promoting increased cognitive functioning by treating the physiological and hormonal causes of mental health and addictions. In 2021, Dr. Allott co-published with her lifelong friend Natasha Duarte, the workbook, Fuel Your Brain, Not Your Anxiety: Stop the Cycle of Worry, Fatigue, and Sugar Cravings with Simple Protein-Rich Foods with New Harbinger Publishing.

Natasha Duarte has always been curious about different cultures. She has traveled extensively and has consistently found that our differences are far out shadowed by what we have in common. Much of her work has involved developing and supporting community, helping people be at their best, and celebrating uniqueness. Through this work, Natasha developed a communication style and tools that help people achieve their goals. Along her journey, Natasha has faced some health issues that were not easily identifiable or treatable. She put her natural curiosity and “get it done” approach to work within the medical system to find solutions. When her long-time friend, Kristen, invited her to co-create tools to support Kristen’s medical practice, she said yes. This led to co-authoring their workbook, Fuel Your Brain, Not Your Anxiety, released by New Harbinger Publishing in early 2021. It supports their shared goal of helping as many people as possible be at their best so that they can, in turn, positively impact their families and communities.
