Nutritional Therapy is the use of foods therapeutically to promote optimum health and increase exercise performance. We apply the latest research in nutrition and health sciences to individuals, focusing on improving the functions of body systems including; digestive, immune, hormonal and cardiovascular.

 

Nutrition is a fundamental requirement for good health, therefore optimising nutrient intake and making positive lifestyle changes is likely to be of benefit in the management of most health issues when followed accurately. Nutritional Therapy is suitable for children, teenagers and adults.

 

I work passionately with the below:

 

• Sports and functional nutrition

• Digestive issues: constipation, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), diverticulitis & coeliac disease.

• Upper Respiratory issues: sinusitis, post-nasal drip, asthma, tonsillitis, ear infections

• Auto-immune issues: arthritis, thyroid issues, ankylosing spondylitis

• Nutrition for pre & post natal

 

In the past few decades, people’s lives have become busier and there is an increased reliance on processed foods containing chemicals, additives and sugar. An increase in the use of pesticides and chemicals from intensive farming coupled with a decrease in nutrients in the soil and exceptional levels of pollution place extra burdens on our health. Poor diet and inadequate nutrition, stressful lifestyles and a general lack of exercise are now recognised as some of the primary causes of poor health for many people in our modern society. Nutritional therapy encompasses the use of carefully chosen recommendations for nutrition, supplements and lifestyle to alleviate or prevent ailments and promote optimal health. These recommendations are professionally tailored to each person’s individual circumstances and requirements.
