CHICAGO, May 22, 2018 (Newswire.com) - The International Association of Women (IAW) honors Ernestine Tucker as a 2018-2019 Influencer of the Year.

The International Association of Women (IAW) is a global in-person and online networking platform with nearly one million members, 1000+ in person and virtual events, over 100 Local US based Chapters and International Chapters in several cities in China.
“I’m pleased to welcome Ernestine into this exceptional group of professional women,” said IPDN President and IAW Spokesperson Star Jones. “Her knowledge and experience in her industry are valuable assets to her company and community.”
The more I learned about drug-drug interactions and how some medications deplete the micronutrients in the body, I became convinced that diets and lifestyle choices impact how well or sick one becomes.
Ernestine Tucker, Clinical Research Manager/Health Coach
Ernestine Tucker has more than 15 years of experience in the clinical research field. Her work as a Clinical Research Manager at a pharmaceutical company has inspired her to pursue a second career as a Health Coach. “The more I learned about drug-drug interactions and how some medications deplete the micronutrients in the body, I became convinced that diets and lifestyle choices impact how well or sick one becomes,” she said. “There began my journey into learning how the right food and customized nutritional support can heal the body.”
In her role as a Health Coach, Ms. Tucker strives to provide clients with the information they need for a healthier lifestyle. “I am also trained as a nutraMetrix Consultant,” she said. I implement customized wellness solutions at health professionals’ offices by really understanding the mission and vision of their practice(s) through a discovery meeting.” Her aim is to provide alternative solutions that focus on a holistic and patient-centered approach, which complements conventional care.
Her own health issues have led Ms. Tucker to also work tirelessly to bring awareness to women about the toxic ingredients found in some feminine hygiene products. A member of the “Now We No” campaign, she has also founded flowgraciously.info, a website that provides information about this subject. “Many women are too embarrassed globally to have conversations about their feminine issues and therefore are suffering in silence,” said Ms. Tucker. “It’s time to break the barriers and start conversation. This is where I bring forth information which most women shy away from hesitantly. Period!”
