Food can have a profound affect on health. What Is Nutritional Medicine? However, nutritional medicine is more than that.

I am a degree qualified nutritionist that utilises a holistic approach combined with scientific research to identify the underlying cause of health imbalances and modulate with food and lifestyle changes. Nutritional medicine is a science that considers how food and food’s individual constituents’ influence health outcomes both positively and negatively. It is also a holistic form of healing that considers broader influences on health such as lifestyle, psychological stressors and environmental exposures. As a practitioner I have a highly individualised and personal approach based on the latest scientific research. I will work with you to identify the underlying causes of any imbalances and collaboratively formulate dietary and lifestyle changes and possibly nutritional supplementation, that supports your health while also accommodating your lifestyle and personal preferences. I will utilise advanced functional testing around food intolerances, gastrointestinal health, hormone regulation and genetics if needed.

So many people, particularly women, look to intermittent fasting as a way to lose weight. But what I see a lot in clinic is that women typically do not thrive on this lifestyle.

They are tired, fatigued and crave sugar of an afternoon, and what I ask my clients often is ‘Are you having breakfast?’.

Skipping breakfast and getting to a point of extreme hunger causes your blood sugar to spike, signalling the release of cortisol (the stress hormone) in an attempt to regulate your blood sugar levels.

This causes the body to go into fight or flight mode which stops fat burning.

So what if this is a lifestyle you want to follow, I recommend having dinner earlier (around 6pm) and eating breakfast the next morning at around 8-9am. This still gives your body 12 hours to fast, rest and digest.
