Jenny Snyder began her career as a Child and Youth Worker, graduating from Mohawk College in 1997. She spent many years working with youth of all ages in the community.

In 2013 she became ill with a “mystery illness” that various specialists just couldn’t pin point. This was so frustrating for her, so she decided to research natural means of healing the body. During this time her husband’s father had been going through a tough battle with cancer and sadly lost his fight. A few months later, Jenny’s mother went to the hospital with stomach pain and just over a week later she was diagnosed with stomach cancer. Her mother’s health declined so quickly that unfortunately only three days later her mom also passed away with all of her loved ones around her. As if that wasn’t enough, Jenny herself was then diagnosed with a semi aggressive melanoma less than a year after all of these horrible events.

As the mother of two girls with plenty of life to live, all of this tragedy fueled her desire to learn everything she could to protect herself and her loved ones. During this process Jenny realized how vital nutrition is to overall health and wellness. She enrolled in the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition’s (CSNN) Natural Nutrition program, and completed her R.H.N. studies in March of 2017. The Canadian School of Natural Nutrition is the most recognized and sought-after holistic nutrition program, with the most recognized professional designations in the industry. The program is also recognized by the Canadian Association of Holistic Nutrition Professionals (CAHN-Pro) and by the National Association of Nutrition Professionals (NANP) in the United States.

As a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, Jenny Snyder educates individuals by taking a natural approach to health using evidence-based techniques for diet, lifestyle, and detoxification. She specializes in detoxification, balancing, and regenerating the body focusing on what’s best for each individual.

Jenny has been a patient of Dr. Cooke’s for over six years and has always appreciated Dr. Cooke’s warm and supportive nature and the wonderful, caring staff team. She is so excited to be offering her Holistic Nutrition consulting services here.
