Excellent service from Barbara, she is extremely knowledgeable, supportive, understanding and an wonderfully authentic human. I was at the end of my tether when I reached out to her and she formulated a great protocol for me that helped me get through a very tough menopause. Ten years later and I still look back with deep gratitude to the solid help she gave me. Barbara to the rescue! Thanks for the service you provide, Barbara. Highly recommended. - Chris Nicholas
Barbara’s advice and knowledge is invaluable. There’s a plethora of information out there relating to the nutritional needs of our bodies as we age so it’s great to have someone in real life who not only knows her stuff, but listens too. Super supportive & I highly recommend her services. - Victoria Walker
Transformed my health with personalized, insightful advice and a warm, supportive approach—I couldn’t recommend her services more highly! - Maria Xenophontos
Barbara has truly transformed my gut health and overall well-being in the most incredible way. Right from the start, her personalised approach worked wonders, especially for my digestive system.
Her expertise and genuine care have been game-changers. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking to improve their health! - Aila E.
I'm very glad we met Barbara. My son doesn't experience symptoms of allergic rhinitis any more, he's more active and his sleep is so much better! She is very well informed and supporting. I would highly recommend her. Vivi Karoumpas
Tell her honestly your complain, what you suffer from, any long standing health issues, any medical exams, MRI, blood tests, if any you have, these are not mandatory of course, you can simply ask for an improved diet protocol, or more endurance but what surprised me was the ease by which I can now monitor the strength of my bones without supplements. Further more you will learn some simple inexpensive tips of the trade to further protect your health. She is into this for real. She practices what she talks. - Iacovos Stavrides
Thank you Barbara for providing a solid base for my mind set towards achieving a healthy body especially in uncertain times with an uncertain future. The body feeling lighter=mind feeling lighter = sense of achievement = sense of pride, self control and self determination. Thank you. - Stephen Fyfe
I started the 12 Week Med Life Diet Coaching Program with Barbara Karafokas and to be honest I feel GREAT!!!. she is amazing !! I am already at the 2nd week, I improve my eating habits and already lost 2 pounds. I never feel that I am starving , actually I feel all the time that I am full ! - Tassos A.
I came to seek help from Barbara in the summer of 2015. I was two years into surgical menopause at this point, and although I had some symptoms, it was all quite bearable. We then made some big changes at home and suddenly my family life was in massive turmoil and things started to change drastically. My hot flashes and night sweats were quite unbearable, I was getting only a couple of hours of sleep a night and I was a nightmare to be around. I felt like I was losing my mind and was constantly in a bad mood, angry, anxious or depressed. I didn't even feel like I was able to reach out to anyone, it all felt so hopeless. My friend convinced me to get in touch with Barbara, and I haven't looked back since. She helped me get back on track with my clean eating, helped me feel motivated enough to start exercising every day again, recommended several supplements that made a difference instantaneously to my moods and sleeping and got me back on my path to wellness. More than anything, she underlined how important it is to care for oneself before trying to care for others, because you can't take on that responsibility unless you yourself are in the best place possible, physically, spiritually and mentally. Thank-you for all your help and support, Barbara. You are a rockstar ! ~ Chrys N.

".......I finally relented and hired a qualified nutritionist to prepare a 7-Day meal plan for me. I wanted a menu that was easy to prepare and delicious (so I wouldn’t give up before I saw results), and I was lucky to be introduced to Barbara Karafokas, a qualified Holistic Nutritionist and author of “The Med Life Diet”. Barbara assessed my current diet and lifestyle, before sending me a personalised meal plan. I’m proud to report that once I incorporated the changes she recommended, I no longer feel tired or moody! Barbara is my secret weapon in my daily fight to stay fit and energised !
Barbara has been very helpful throughout out my contact with her in relation to my diet. She has introduced me to the wonderful term "super foods" and that puts a smile on my face. She is extremely helpful and always at hand to answer any questions. It is always a pleasure having someone who loves what she does! I would recommend Barbara to anyone looking for guidance to a healthy lifestyle ! " - Harry H.
Barbara has been extremely helpful in not only explaining the benefits of a balanced, healthy diet but also in making me understand the benefits of not mixing certain foods and especially not mixing proteins and carbohydrates. As I travel a lot and have a busy lifestyle, she was of great help in providing me with a meal plan and recipes which I have used at home and while on the move. I am now more cautious in what foods I am mixing and a number of my problems have now reduced". - Marcia K.
I turned to Barbara after talking with a colleague who told me that Barbara had helped her to make her transition to a healthy style of nutrition, while also managing some health problems she had. At the time I was at the verge of desperation. I was constantly bloated and constipated which made me irritated and angry; I was trying to lose a few kilos which had been larking around my waist and thighs for the past couple of years and nothing I had tried was working. This included trying several diets and nutrition plans, eating foods which supposedly help constipation, avoided foods known to cause bloating…. NOTHING! I even turned to a specialist and took a food intolerance test which showed certain intolerance to many foods and substances and started managing my diet around the foods that I had no problem with…. NOTHING. When I visited her, Barbara took the time to gather some information about my health condition, medications I may be taking, my eating habits, other issues I may phase such as PMS and sensitivity to foods, my exercise habits and more. During this first session, I gave her the results of my food intolerance test for reference as well. Within three days, she furnished me with a nutrition plan which accommodated all of the above. Beyond the diet plan, she furnished me with some delicious recipes and a list of supplements which would help me with constipation, PMS and enhance my metabolism.
Once I started with the plan, it took less than a week for me to feel better. No bloating or constipation whatsoever!! Although the first week my weight loss was not the expected, during my second weekly weigh-in visit to Barbara we happily realized that I had lost my first kilo. This was the case during my third visit as well… and still no bloating or constipation!!!
Beyond the obvious life changing benefits, (no longer irritated all the time as a result of my bloating, constipation and PMS mood swings), I generally feel much better. I feel light and healthy and good about myself as I keep a healthy diet which keeps me satisfied and cravings free. When I started feeling bored with my specific plan, she furnished me with a modified plan based on my preferences so no worries there either! Did I mention that I can have as much fruit and veggies AND some dark chocolate EVERY DAY?
Thanks Barbara!!! You have changed my life to the better! - SG
I had a great time with Barbara and the group during the relationships training! It was fun, light hearted, yet brought things to the surface for me to see and review so I may be more focused to who I want to attract. Although we were a group, there was no discussion on in depth personal traits, but rather we worked on ourselves individually, and took home homework to keep up the interest. The service was great and, as with any study, the amount of effort placed into the work, reflected on the amount of value created. So if you are up for it.. I would recommend it! - Roberto S.
I liked very much that we were having small exercises while in session, because it enable me to understand where I stood at the different points you were mentioning. The sessions were very smooth / the delivery rate was normal. I loved the little poems, pieces of literature in the last pages of the handouts you were given us (I am reading the chapter on relationships and is very enlightening)-they are inspirational. In addition the price per session was excellent-I dare to say that it was cheap. In addition the atmosphere was great -good energy and great sense of humour! - Koulla A.
