Last year my mom was diagnosed with diabetes. I personally made the diagnosis, started her on medications, and have been overseeing her care for the most part. Living in Canada while she is in Nigeria, I have found it understandably challenging to coordinate everything, especially given how difficult the health care system can be back home. While I could manage the medical side, I knew lifestyle and nutrition are just as critical for diabetes management, and I wanted someone who truly understood Nigerian meals and culture and could guide her day to day.
I googled and found Aisha Nutrition House. We spoke over the phone, she sounded knowledgeable, and I felt somewhat confident to give her a trial. I have not regretted this decision for a single moment. Since May, Aisha Nutrition House has been a consistent source of support for my mom. She speaks with her every two weeks, sometime more frequently, and stays in touch regularly over chat, and communicates with me professionally to keep me updated while respecting confidentiality. She created a tailored meal plan, showed my mom where to source foods locally, and made practical, effective recommendations that fit seamlessly into her life.
The results speak for themselves. My mom’s recent blood test showed a significant improvement in her diabetes control. While medications have certainly played a role, without a doubt the lifestyle changes — especially around diet — that Aisha has implemented have made the greatest difference. Beyond the numbers, my mom feels more confident in herself and in her understanding of diabetes, which is priceless.
What has impressed me even more is Aisha’s compassion. Diabetes is life-changing, and on days my mom has felt discouraged, she has been quick to notice and offer encouragement and support. My mom is completely comfortable with her, and that trust has made such a difference. For me, the greatest relief is peace of mind. I no longer worry constantly because I know my mom is in capable, caring hands.
Even though we have never met in person, Aisha has cared for my mom almost like family. She has lifted such a heavy burden off my shoulders, and I will always be grateful. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Aisha Nutrition House for being there for my mom and, by extension, for me. I highly recommend your services to anyone in need of a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated dietitian.
Thank you
Dr Catherine A.
