About Karen Vago
I help you have the energy and health you dream of so you can do what you want and perform at your best
When people see me in person and hear my age, they look at me open-mouthed. I easily look ten years younger. (Some say more!)
I attribute it to my knowing how to support my body in a way that’s aligned with my individuality. Because we’re all different, we need different things to feel better and that’s what I help you with.
So if you’re tired (to whatever degree), feeling unwell, and stress has been a regular part of your life, you’ve come to the right place. Knowing what gives you energy and your health back, based on your specific needs, is what will make the difference. That’s why I look so much younger.

How I found my passion for this work
It was revealed through my son’s health.
When he was three years old he developed asthma. At the time I tried many medical and natural therapies with no results.
What saved him was an avenue nobody told me about: personalized nutrition.
We were living in England back then. My determination to find a solution for him was so big (my mission at the time) that the answer came to me in the form of a doctor whose method to help his patients was nutrition assisted by nutrients in therapeutic doses. He was a pioneer, a man who believed in his convictions. He was a prominent figure in the orthomolecular medical and nutritional movement. He helped my son breathe again and climb back up a slope that he was rolling down … fast.
It was exhausting to have that Damocles sword above my head: when would my little boy be fighting to breathe again.
(I can reassure you, he is fine today)
This ongoing stress affected my health. Premenstrual syndrome (I since wrote a book in French on the subject), chronic candida, very debilitating digestive pain, repetitive rhinitis and sinusitis, frequent moodiness, acne until I was 35, irritability and fatigue accompanied my daily life.
The good doctor took care of me too.
The impact it had on my life. The training I chose to take.
Having witnessed these miracles of nutrition, a few years later I decided that it was my vocation to help people in this way too and went back to school. I studied nutrition at the Institute of Optimum Nutrition in London and became a nutritional therapist.
(I never did make any practical use of the four years I had spent at University to get a Bachelor’s degree in Economical Sciences.)
I also studied under Doctor Peter D’Adamo and became a Fellow of the Institute for Human Individuality.
This was all an excellent foundation.
Today, the education that is most useful to me is what I learn on my own and what my clients teach me by letting me be their guide.
Thirty years and four books later…
…I am more enthusiastic than ever to help you get over your fatigue and all sorts of physical and psychological symptoms that come with it and help you live your “renaissance” (rebirth) as my client Marie-Claire called her transformation.
The innate capacity of your body to heal itself is amplified by the solid personalized foundation you get in my RENAISSANCE program
The Chinese doctor Sun Simiao (581-682) sums up what I believe : “Every doctor who wants to know what illness his patient has, must first find out about his eating habits. Thus he often finds the deep cause of the illness.” (In: Essential Formulas for Emergencies [Worth] a Thousand Pieces of Gold)
