Balance For Life's plant base meal retreat was a life changing experience. I learned a lot about nutrition and how to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is very much a holistic program. I highly recommend it if you want to learn how to live a healthier life.

My time at Balance for Life was well needed. I came in hope of learning more about nutrition and chronic inflammation. Not only did I learn a lot, I was inspired by Dr. Sabatino and Sharon. They went beyond expectation, with kindness and patience to meet my needs and to make my experience memorable. I did the plant based program. The food was delicious and plenty. I was never hungry. The exercise program was great. I felt relaxed, energized and empowered when I left. Thank you so much to the team and the guests speakers. I highly recommend Balance For Life!

Had a fantastic experience doing the water fast at Balance for Life. Even though I have been mostly vegetarian for several years, I have not been taking care of myself, and the first couple of days were a bit taxing. But then the body enters ketosis and the energy level and mood improvements are stunning, completely exceeding my expectations. My sleep improved along with every other metric reported by my Fitbit, and by the end of the 5 days, I had dropped 5% of my body weight. The lectures provided by the very knowledgeable Dr. Frank Sabatino were informative and engaging, and the rest of the support staff were great. Thanks, Sharon! The aqua-fit classes in the pool looked good (though I did not take part), and the afternoon yoga/meditation classes were fantastic, though challenging (I was a first timer). TD;DR I am very glad I took the time to make this investment in my well being, and I would recommend it to anyone.

I spent the week with my 85+ year old aunt at Balance for life. I chose the vegan food program -after all this was a vacation! After the first day all I could think of was how was I going to incorporate all this into my lifestyle. I weighed in and by Friday I could not remember the last time I ate 3 meals a day and BIG meals no less. All I could think of was how delicious everything was-vegan? No salt, oil or sugar? I must have gained weight -well to my surprise I lost s few pounds, felt amazing and have incorporated everything I learned into my active lifestyle. I have lost weight, feel great and give myself grace knowing I am a work in progress. Thank you to Dr Frank for all your teachings and to Sharon who made us like we were the only guests there and being the glue that keeps it all running smoothly ❤️

Best LIFE upgrade in a week I have ever experienced. Tons of great education, lots of options for a food plan( whole plant, juicing & water fasting) on the beach, clean spacious rooms, plenty of time to rest or take advantage of three movement classes a day. Do yourself a huge favor and book this retreat. The doctor and his staff who are leading the week long sessions are top notch. I will be back.

The best week! I SO enjoyed the lectures each morning and afternoon. Incredibly informative and truly life changing. I feel equipped to continue on my journey to good health and long life (and bring my husband and kids along with me). My only regret is not knowing this stuff 20 years ago! I hope I can come back sometime with my husband.
