About The Principal Dietitian

I am a mum of three with personal experience of food intolerance, neurodivergence, autoimmune, hormonal and digestive issues that complement my professional training in many more nutrition-related health conditions.

Our approach

• We firmly believe that food is key to optimal health

• As Accredited Practising Dietitians, we are nutrition scientists with a deep understanding of food and beverages and their components.
