Jill Troderman

brought to life in 2007, , , two Food Tree posters, and has been taught to more than a thousand people.

Jill holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from Arizona State University. She is a certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant, graduating from Bauman College, Santa Cruz, in 2007. She is certified Julia Ross Amino Acid practitioner and certified in First Line Therapy. Jill has been a member of the National Association of Nutrition Professionals since 2007. In 2013 she won the Going Up Award from the board of directors at the National Association of Nutrition Professionals to honor and recognize exceptional individuals’ achievements and contributions in the holistic nutrition industry. The Going Up Award is “awarded to a NANP member, in professional practice for three years or less, who has already begun to obtain visibility, success, and distinction in their business.” (NANP, 2019)

Relationships are incredibly important to her, and Jill is very grateful to have the support of some luminaries in the health and wellness field. Here are what her colleagues are saying.

  • “The Food Tree is a fun, engaging hands-on tool for helping kids understand how to make good food choices. With clear guidance to the most updated recommendations for nutritional wellness, it is a wonderful method for clinicians, teachers, dietitians, and parents to prevent childhood obesity and poor nutrition.” - Dr. Rachel Carlton Abrams MDM HS, author,
  • “There are many approaches to teaching healthy eating, however, "The Food Tree Holistic Nutrition and Wellness Curriculum; Teach Kids How to Eat Well and Thrive" stands apart from any I have seen. Jill's work is grounded in evidence-based research and reflects a deep understanding of nutrition and plant-based medicine as critical pathways to well-being. Jill is a true educator, and with this book, she has translated her unique approach to teaching nutrition into a cohesive curriculum with clear, actionable lessons for raising healthy and thriving children.” - Donnie Yance, Master Herbalist, Certified Nutritionist, CEO Natura Health Products
