children to be healthier eaters.
The Story Behind Unjunk
Bernadette’s mission to create a positive largescale impact on health has always been her driving
force. As a busy mother of four, she holds a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Master’s
degree in Exercise Science and Health Promotion and continues to accumulate credentials as a
Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and AFMC-certified Functional Medicine Coach. But no amount of education or professional experience could have prepared her for the struggles
she had to face as a modern-day parent trying to raise healthy eaters, and after speaking to many
other parents, she knew she wasn’t alone.
If she truly wanted to help her children as they grew older and more independent, the only real
solution was to let go of control and empower her children to make the right food choices for
themselves, which she hoped to achieve by educating them and raising their level of awareness
about the food debate.
She also realized that if she truly wanted to create change and make a positive impact, not only on
her children, but on society at large, she knew she had to share her experiences, knowledge and
proven strategies as a mom and health professional, with other parents, teachers and authority
figures – in fact all those who have a moral responsibility to educate children about healthy living.
This book is her gift to you, your children and society to help raise awareness and be the catalyst for
change. UNJUNK provides you with the tools and resources needed to raise healthy eaters without
the frustration and confusion of having to figure it out all on your own.
Through her step-by-step approach revealed across nine chapters, with plenty of checklists, scripts,
visuals, and fun exercises to consolidate a child’s learning, you will be armed with the know-how to
navigate your way through the food industry, negate the outside influences and transform your
family’s nutrition and overall health.
