About
Me
I understand what it is like very well to not feel your best everyday. I have suffered with many health problems. However, the smile you see on my face on the photo to the left is genuine, and the energy I had to climb those rocks didn't run out after doing so. Retraining as a functional medicine nutritional therapist gave me the answers I needed after so long to get my health and life back. Let me help you get your health back too!
How Great Health Naturally Began Helping People Like You
But I Can't Cook?
I turned to food and lifestyle science after suffering for years with endometriosis when I was quite young. 21 years old in fact, and only after seeing a nutritionist on a British TV show help people get their lives back using food and lifestyle improvements to feel better. I in no way could cook either!
When I was first told I had endometriosis I was immediately told to take the pill and that it would help me. Not knowing better I did. I was told the pill I was taking would also help with my backne.
I wanted to thrive and have a baby one day so I took my health into my hands which is when I decided to obtain a diploma in Natural Nutrition from the College of Natural Nutrition in the UK. The changes I applied to myself were life changing, and after having my first laparoscopy I came off the pill and used only nutrition and lifestyle science to keep me in good health. I feel this also contributed to me successfully falling pregnant after our first time trying for a baby! Despite being told I had a low chance of falling pregnant!
Post-Natal Health Challenges to Getting My Health Back!
After having my son, my health changed a lot and went quite downhill. I had a very healthy pregnancy and a natural birth, even had no problems breastfeeding, however I had put on a lot of weight, was very fatigued, anxiety was high and I was getting unexplained body pains.
Fast forward after the many years of struggling with public health doctors in the UK, to finding a functional doctor in South Africa who helped me to see I had an underactive thyroid causing a lot of my issues, but on top I was also anaemic, low in B12.
It took my many years to get my health back to where it is now, but with the power of a doctor who took my symptoms seriously and retraining in functional medicine nutrition – I have managed to take back control my health to such a point that I do not feel like I live with a chronic illness anymore!
Nutrition and lifestyle science was very powerful for me and has been the driving force for helping my clients take back control of their health too!
