WHY AALA NUTRITION
Care your doctor doesn't have time for.
In the real world, doctors don't have time to get to know your story. Tammy spends hours peeling back the layers — your history, your habits, your triggers — to uncover what's actually driving your disease.
Root-cause first
We don't chase symptoms. We find the underlying triggers driving your condition and remove them.
Bio-individual care
No two bodies are the same. Every plan is built around your DNA, history, lifestyle and goals.
Bridge with your doctor
Tammy is your advocate — translating between you and your physician so nothing gets missed.
Food, herbs & lifestyle
Real protocols using nutrition, targeted supplements and sustainable lifestyle shifts.
MEET YOUR NUTRITIONIST
Hi, I'm Tammy McDougall.
I've lived with an autoimmune disease, candida, chronic stress and a 90% blocked artery — and I've maintained each one through functional nutrition. Now I help others do the same, naturally.
As a Certified Functional Nutrition Practitioner and member of the AANWC Board, I bring 10+ years of personal healing and clinical study to every client I work with.

IN THEIR WORDS
Testimonials.
Loved by clients across Canada
"Tammy listened to things three different doctors brushed off. Within six weeks my brain fog lifted and my energy was back."

SUCCESS STORIES
When the body finally feels heard.
From autoimmune disease to gut dysfunction, chronic fatigue to sleep disorders — Aala clients arrive exhausted and leave with a roadmap. Below is one of hundreds of journeys.
"I had Hashimoto's, fibromyalgia and PCOS. Three diagnoses, three pills, zero answers. Tammy connected the dots in our first session. Twelve weeks later my labs are normal and I cancelled two prescriptions."
— Karina S., Body → Soulfulness
NUTRITION PHILOSOPHY
"Aala" — the hunter and the healer.
We were never meant to live in pain. Most chronic illness is the body asking for something it isn't getting — nourishment, rest, safety, balance. My job is to hunt down what's missing and walk with you, mind, body and soul, until you feel whole again.
Bio-individuality
No two stories are the same. No two plans should be.
Epigenetics
Your genes don't define you. Food and lifestyle can rewrite them.
Whole-person
Mind, body and soul — the only way real healing sticks.
