"I have worked with several nutritionists but had never achieved the desired results until I met Dr. Verónica. I was immediately captivated by his nutritional approach, friendliness, total availability and even affection. In addition to studying my nutritional needs at all stages of my training, it also took into account my lifestyle, such as sleep, to optimize what influences my performance. With it I take advantage of my full potential as a player."

"I worked with Nutritionist Verónica Barros during the 2022-2023 season at FC Famalicão, a historic period for the club and for us, the athletes. Dr. Verónica joined the club at a time when we greatly needed support and attention to nutritional values to enhance our performance in games, and she provided us with all the necessary support to achieve our season goals. Even with the limited resources available at the club, she managed to structure our nutrition with great professionalism. She made us realize the impact of good nutrition on achieving our objectives and helped us reach them by offering various dietary options, providing supplementary PDFs for our knowledge, creating specific individual plans, and maintaining constant contact with a healthy food company to organize our daily meals. This made my life easier, as I had my meals tailored to my ideal nutritional values right after training. She was always available when we needed her and paid great attention to details. Her contribution was essential to my growth as an athlete. She is a competent professional, and I would recommend her to any club or individual."

"I have always liked to take care of myself and my body. I thought I was doing well by eating certain meals and certain foods. Until the 2021-2022 season when a nutritionist arrived at the club, Verónica Barros. I took this opportunity and followed everything she suggested and planned in order to have a successful season and feel good about myself. At the beginning it was a bit difficult, everything was different, I wasn't used to it. But when after just one week I saw such clear results, I got excited and carried on with the plan fully focused on change. And so it happened. Week after week I saw a very big and satisfying evolution. I was a little overweight, in particular, and managed to reach my ideal weight. This all happened thanks to the excellent guidance from Verónica Barros! Without her it would have been much more difficult to achieve my personal and sports goals. It was an incredible achievement. Today I continue with the same tips and plans. This way I can make sure I’m where I want to be."

"During the 2022-2023 season, I had the opportunity to collaborate with nutritionist Verónica Barros at FC Famalicão, a memorable year for all of us. Dr. Verónica played a fundamental role in achieving our individual goals, providing us with appropriate guidance, conducting precise assessments, designing nutrition programs, recommending suitable supplements, and offering invaluable support. This provided us with the essential tools to excel in both our training and games.Despite the team's resource limitations, Dr. Verónica demonstrated exemplary professionalism, took initiative, and maintained constant communication with us, establishing a partnership with a healthy food products company. This significantly eased our lives, ensuring that we had proper meals ready after each training session and game. Working with Dr. Verónica made me understand the importance of proper nutrition in maximizing athletes' performance, always prioritizing our mental health and well-being. She is a professional who helped me grow not only as an athlete but also as a person. To this day, I consider her one of the best nutritionists I've ever worked with. Her expertise goes far beyond simple calorie calculations. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any club or individual aiming to improve and achieve peak performance."

"I have always been someone who cared for and looked after my body, but I never managed to achieve the desired performance until I met Nutritionist Dr. Verónica Barros during the 2021/2022 sports season at Boavista Futebol Clube. From that year onwards, I started having the right meals suited to my needs and, with the tremendous help of Dr. Barros, I began to perform better in futsal, reaching levels far superior to what I had been achieving until then. Even physically, I quickly noticed improvements, which motivated me more and more to continue. Today, I maintain permanent contact with Dr. Verónica and intend to continue doing so because she was undoubtedly the balance I so needed and sought. She is an excellent professional, and whenever I need something or have any doubts, she is always present and concerned. Having a nutritionist is important for an athlete's life, but having a nutritionist like Dr. Verónica is the best there is!"

IT - Project Management

"In April 2024, I decided to schedule a Nutrition appointment, driven by a genuine desire to improve my health and well-being. I felt tired and lacked the energy to train. With the help of Dr Verónica Barros, I realised that some habits we consider healthy are not quite so. I began the process with small changes, namely, creating a meal plan tailored to me, adding some supplements, and drinking more water. I dare say that by strictly following the meal plan and guidelines, the results were evident within the first month. The physical benefits are notable: more energy, better sleep quality and greater physical endurance, fat loss, and muscle gain. Feeling more confident and positive impacted all areas of my life, from work to gym and Padel training. Persistence in achieving the desired goals is key to success. Keeping my focus on my goals and the tireless support of Dr Verónica Barros helps overcome challenges. In each appointment, we are given more challenges suited to each person, and every small progress is a victory that motivates us to continue. Balance and Flexibility are other words used in the consultation with Dr Verónica. I understood that it is not necessary to be perfect all the time. Allowing myself small pleasures, such as an occasional dessert, is part of creating a sustainable and enjoyable lifestyle. Flexibility is crucial for maintaining motivation and well-being in the long term. The Journey Continues! I understood that losing weight is not a final goal, but an ongoing journey. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle requires the same dedication and attention as any other process in life. I will continue to rely on the dedication and support of the Doctor in this journey. Thank you."

"After 20 years in football and taking proper care of my body, I took a break from sports and healthy eating. After the pandemic, I started road cycling, an endurance sport that requires overcoming challenges and is very demanding both physically and mentally. We always need to be at our best to overcome the challenges the road presents us. After progressing through some stages, I felt I needed help because my performance on the bike had stagnated. That's when I consulted Verónica, a childhood friend whom I fully trusted to help me achieve my desired results. After consulting with Verónica, the results were immediate. Within two months, I experienced a tremendous transformation in my body and adopted new eating habits that provide me with immense well-being, both physically and mentally. Verónica is not only a friend but also a professional of EXCELLENCE - very dedicated, attentive to all details, and always ready to help her patients. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Verónica to anyone looking to improve their lifestyle, whether in sports or daily life. I take this testimony as an opportunity to publicly thank Verónica for her constant care and dedication and to wish her the greatest success always!"

"As a professional model I must keep in top shape. However, with the pandemic, my body underwent a transformation: I stopped going to the gym or eating properly. It was with Verónica Barros, RNutr, that I got back into my previous body. Thanks to a careful assessment and a diet plan adapted to my needs... it worked. I'm a loyal patient now!"
