My interest in nutrition grew when I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and did not want to take prescriptive medications, because they gave me serious side effects.
Instead, I recovered from my hypertension through consulting a Nutritional Therapist and my great passion for nutrition was born. Now I keep healthy by eating the right foods for me and taking a personal supplement programme.
I studied for my Diploma at The Institute of Optimum Nutrition (founded by Patrick Holford) and graduated with Distinction in 1992.
I am registered with the British Association for Applied Nutrition & Nutritional Therapy and the Nutritional Therapy Council, the professional bodies for Nutritional Therapists in the UK, which have strict Codes of Practice and Ethics. Nutritionists registered with BANT and the NTC have obtained their qualification from approved colleges, and have to meet high professional standards.
I am also a Registered Foresight (The Association for Pre-Conceptual Care) Clinician which enables me to help clients with pre-conceptual care, pregnancy and infertility problems.
