Are you ready to improve your health?

Explore functional, holistic and integrative health 

Understand your body so you can support it with confidence.

When you can see what is affecting your energy, digestion, sleep, hormones, and metabolism, you can make choices that actually help. No guessing and no overwhelm, just clarity and tools that work with your biology.

Your body runs on patterns. Minerals, digestion, stress load, and metabolism are all linked. When one area is under strain, the others adapt. Instead of chasing symptoms, we look at the underlying pattern that shapes how you feel. This begins with simple testing and clear guidance.

ABOUT ME

I spent many years trying to understand my health when symptoms didn’t make sense and conventional explanations fell short. That led me to study how the body works as a connected system, where minerals, digestion, stress signals, metabolism, and emotional states all influence one another. When I began supporting my body at that deeper level, things finally started to shift.

I trained at the Academy of Healing Nutrition, where I learnt to view well-being through a holistic lens, recognising that physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health are linked. From there, I went on to advanced training in integrative health and functional medicine, continuing my professional development through CPD-accredited training. My studies have focused on physiology, mineral balance, adrenal and thyroid patterns, metabolic function, nutritional biochemistry, and the mind-body relationship.

I value clarity, curiosity, and working with the body rather than forcing or fighting it. I think the body can restore balance if we know what it needs and allow it to happen.

FOOD AS MEDICINE

Integrative Nutrition

 Food is a powerful tool for preventing and managing health conditions. It is important to choose nutrient-dense foods and pay attention to the quality of our diet. I have a holistic view of nutrition, taking into consideration not only the foods you eat but also your lifestyle, emotional well-being, and individual health needs. My approach recognises the influence of mental and emotional factors on dietary choices and health outcomes. Stress reduction, mindfulness, and emotional well-being are integral to a healthy lifestyle.

  • Yesterday a female doctor jumped into my comments on my cholesterol post to tell me it was “too simplified.”

Fair point, it was simplified. It was a Facebook text post. Not a medical textbook. 

But then came the classic move: “Please don’t preach to me sweetie, I’ve been a medical doctor since 2005.”

She told me we should “ask ChatGPT,” then posted a screenshot of ChatGPT saying my post was oversimplified, misleading, and that people would misunderstand it.

That assumes the average person is stupid. Like people cannot hold a simple idea in their head. 

People can understand a basic point and still know there’s nuance. They do it all day with money, relationships, parenting, work, and everything else.

Now the other part.

A degree proves you can learn what you were taught. It does not prove the teaching was perfect. It does not prove the model is complete. It does not prove the system is right. 

University can train you to repeat a framework really well. It can also train you not to question the framework, because your whole career sits on it.

Real learning is staying curious. Reading outside your lane. Checking what changed since you trained. And being willing to say, “I might be wrong.”

I’m not impressed by someone trying to win with a title and a ChatGPT screenshot.
I’m impressed by people who can explain their reasoning and respect the people reading.

Have you noticed how people that are trained by the system think they are better than those that are not?
  • Keep manifesting your future life.
And then act like it’s real.
That’s when it starts happening.
  • I’m testing something most people never think about… 
Iodine.

Same food, same routine, same sleep, one change. Then I watch what actually shifts.

Because bromide, fluoride, and chloride are similar to iodine, they can compete with it for absorption and binding sites, potentially displacing iodine.

Do you take iodine, what have you noticed, even if it is something small?
  • Call me extreme but I’ll take steak over statins anytime.
  • Morning fuel made simple. You don’t need carbs or sugar for energy.
