There is so much 'mis'-information in the media today that it is hard to know what or who to believe. One minute we’re told that eggs are high in cholesterol, and the next that they’re a nutrient powerhouse. Do nuts make you fat or can they actually promote weight loss? Does soya help ward off menopausal symptoms, or does is contribute to bone loss? And what about supplements - are they really worth the money you spend on them? How on earth are you supposed to work out what constitutes a healthy diet?
 The truth is that each one of us is biochemically unique with our own dietary needs. The trick is to identify what foods agree with you and will give you the most energy, while improving your digestion, skin, hair, mood, and resistance to disease.
Medical nutritional therapy does just that. Based on scientific research, it involves understanding how the body works, so as to ensure it functions efficiently. Furthermore, whereas conventional medicine often focuses on the symptoms, nutritional medicine aims to address any imbalances in the body by tackling the root causes.
Perhaps most importantly, one size doesn't fit all so you can expect a tailor-made nutritional plan that fits in with your lifestyle and your own individuality - it's about empowering you, not throwing a list of 'dos' and 'don'ts' at you.

Key areas that nutritional medicine can help with:
- Achieve optimum health and wellbeing
- Treat a current health problem
- Prevent health problems including degenerative disease
- Cut down on medicine and doctors appointments (natural medicine is always better than the synthetic kind with its various side effects)
- Reach your peak sports performance
What makes this nutrition programme different from all the other diets you've tried?
Quite simply, it's based on fact. There are no miracle cures here, just tools to help you understand your body and achieve optimum health. I believe in inspiring people to achieve good health through practical nutrition. That is to say eating food that we enjoy, that tastes great and that works with our lifestyles.
 So maybe you think you can struggle on with self-help, buying books and vitamin pills. The trouble is, there are so many books and even more theories. Without a proper understanding of how your body works, what has gone wrong and why, how can you really know what you might need?
