Beach residents and health enthusiasts have something exciting to cheer about: Jane Durst Pulkys, a lifelong Beaches resident and Canada’s leading Metabolic Balance coach, has unveiled her second book, The Metabolic Balance Kitchen. As the US Ambassador and sole license holder for Metabolic Balance in Hong Kong, Jane brings unmatched expertise to the world of personalized nutrition and wellness.
Published in December 2024, this vibrant cookbook is already making waves as a bestseller on USA Today, Amazon Canada, and Amazon US. With 90 recipes designed to boost metabolism, reduce inflammation, and promote long-term health, this book is a must-have for anyone looking to kickstart their wellness journey.
Jane’s credentials speak for themselves. With over 25 years of private practice, Jane has built a reputation as an expert in personalized health and nutrition. As Canada’s leading Metabolic Balance coach, she has guided more than 1,400 clients through their journeys, helping them collectively lose 35,000 pounds and regain their health and vitality.
The Metabolic Balance program, a scientifically backed model developed by physicians and nutritional scientists in Germany, is at the core of Jane’s practice. This program creates customized nutrition plans tailored to an individual’s unique blood values, medical history, and preferences. The goal? Lower inflammation, balance insulin and hormones, and promote sustainable weight management.
“Unlike fad diets and quick fixes, Metabolic Balance empowers people to understand their bodies,” Jane explains. “It’s about learning how food affects you, transforming your cravings, and creating a healthier relationship with eating.”
Jane’s personal and professional journey has been deeply rooted in her passion for health and wellness. A Beach native, she grew up experimenting with homemade remedies, sprouting seeds, and crafting yogurt and bread from scratch. After earning her degree in Nutrition from Ryerson University (now Toronto Metropolitan University), she worked in various health-focused roles before stepping into private practice.
Her career took off after she became a certified Live Blood Cell Analyst and Holistic Nutritionist. A pivotal moment came when Jane appeared as a guest expert on Breakfast Television, gaining widespread recognition for her expertise. Since then, she has been featured on CityTV and Global News, as well as various podcasts, and she has delivered wellness talks for Fortune 500 companies.
Most recently, while writing The Metabolic Balance Kitchen, Jane achieved a major milestone by earning her PhD, further solidifying her dedication to advancing her knowledge and expertise in nutrition.
Jane’s passion for helping others shines through in her practice. From conducting live blood cell analyses to offering food sensitivity and energy medicine testing, she provides clients with the tools they need to achieve optimal health. Now, with The Metabolic Balance Kitchen, she’s sharing her expertise with the world.
The cookbook is a practical extension of the Metabolic Balance program. Its 90 recipes, inspired by global cuisines, focus on reducing visceral fat, balancing insulin, and boosting metabolism. These simple, nutritious dishes are designed to be adaptable, making them perfect for various tastes and dietary needs.
More than just a recipe collection, the book provides a roadmap for improving energy, vitality, and overall well-being.
Jane emphasizes that the recipes in The Metabolic Balance Kitchen are more than delicious—they’re transformative. “Lowering inflammation is the foundation,” Jane says. “From there, everything else falls into place: balanced hormones, improved metabolism, and sustainable weight management.”
The book is making its way to store shelves, but you can order your copy today on Amazon Canada. Whether you’re just starting your health journey or looking for inspiration to keep going, The Metabolic Balance Kitchen is the perfect companion.
For those seeking a personalized approach, Jane offers one-on-one consultations where she designs individualized Metabolic Balance plans tailored to her clients’ specific health needs, using detailed analysis of 36 blood values from the lab.
