Welcome to ZenCook!

My name is Ana Catarina Sequeira and I do what I love the most: help people -adults and kids - to find (back) their balance, through integrative and functional nutrition, where the individual is seen as a whole, as a unique Universe, full of Life and potential.

My passion is to spread magic and love through healthy and delicious nutrition - and nutrition is much more than what we eat, it's how we nourish ourselves: how we take care of our physical body, our emotional body (how we allow our emotions to flourish) and our mental body (how are our thoughts and internal dialogue). How we love ourselves.

I would love to show you how you can change your life through the way you nourish yourself.

My academic and practical path

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Health Sciences from the Faculty of Medicine of Lisbon and another one in Nutrition Sciences from the Higher Institute of Health Sciences Egas Moniz.

At the same time I studied macrobiotics, Ayurveda, Chinese dietetics and functional nutrition, in Portugal, Spain and France, with national and international teachers.

In 2014 I founded the ZenCook® brand. With her I traveled and travel the world, as a chef and as an integrative and functional nutritionist.

I love it!
