It’s been a busy week.

2 in-person talks, one workshop, 2 webinars and lots of 1:1 clients. Throw in my Cancer training and ‘life’ and I’m a bit frazzled.

But this has helped.

Show me your Friday night view that’s helping you wind down 🫶 I’d love to see a pic

Creating new habits to benefit your health is so very difficult on your own.

Willpower lasts about two days. Habits take at least 6 weeks to create.

What makes the difference?

Accountability. Coaching. Helping you overcome daily barriers with practical advice.

That’s why I see most of my clients every week. That’s why my clients can contact me at any time for support and questions, no matter how small or trivial they think their questions are.

The questions are never trivial. They are usually barriers that have stopped you from changing your health habits before.

Together we use my clinical knowledge and your personal experience to get to the root cause of your challenges and create habits that benefit you.

Clients often tell me this is what they haven’t got from asking ChatGPT.

I’ve now got a waitlist for 1:1 clients to start in May. Let me know if you’d like to explore working with me and join it.

Do you hate Cottage Cheese?

Do you wish you liked the pinnacle of protein for every influencer and wannabe recipe creator?

Try this one. Longley Farm.

Previously only found in corner shops and random Co-Op’s I actually squealed when I saw this in M&S Foodhall.

I was so excited I took a photo for you. I know, I need to get out more.

Anyway, this isn’t an ad, honestly this cottage cheese is different to any other. Sooo creamy and not watery at all.

If you try it please let me know what you think 🤔

Feeling emotional with 2 beautiful reviews in 24 hours - especially as I feel like the only person working on Good Friday 🐣 - but it certainly makes it all worth it 100 times over.

Brizzle folk - it would be lovely to see you here on the 23rd April - and you get to listen to my dulcet tones for 20 mins too 🤩

You’ve all walked past the Back in Action shop at the bottom of Park Street…. If you’re curious, come and have a look around at their amazing mobiliser equipment and flotation room.

It’s certainly a bit of a different College Green experience than the one I used to have in the 90s 🫣🤭

This explains my glass bottle San Pelligrino obsession 🤓

Get an instant mood boost from sparkling water? Scientists might have just figured out why.

According to a new small study, carbonation could boost alertness by activating sensory nerves in the mouth, which signal the trigeminal nerve, brainstem, and prefrontal executive networks.

It’s similar to another study that found the astringent taste of cocoa polyphenols can directly activate the autonomic nervous system.

Part of the benefit is the repeated stimulation with every sip, generating small bursts of trigeminal activity. A bit like the alerting effects of cold water on the face or chewing gum.

And if you’re worried about sparkling water harming your teeth, know that the amount of carbonic acid is very low. Plain sparkling water is safe for enamel (it's far less acidic than soda or juice).

Anyone else fancy a weekend in London with me (and lots of other exciting speakers ☺️)?

This isn’t just another health event. It’s a wake-up call.
If you’ve ever felt something isn’t quite right with our healthcare system, you’re not imagining it.

Too often, we focus on managing illness instead of preventing it.

But it doesn’t have to stay this way.

Whether you’re a doctor or someone ready to take ownership of your health, change starts with knowledge.

Knowledge that helps you make better decisions.
Knowledge that helps us build a system that supports health, not just treats disease.

This May, the PHC Conference 2026: Nourish to Flourish brings together leading experts in nutrition, medicine, and education to help you understand:

• what’s really driving poor metabolic health
• why so many people struggle despite doing everything right
• how to make informed, evidence-based decisions earlier, not later

Talking about supplementation is sometimes frowned upon as a Registered Nutritionist because of the very fact that supplementing is a very individual, needs-based thing which really does require personalised advice based on health history, symptoms and current medications.

HOWEVER the fact is the supplement industry is HUGE and growing, with a lot of NOISE from the world and his wife about what people should and should not be taking.

I see many clients who are so confused, at best wasting their hard-earned cash creating expensive wee and poo and at worst causing themselves damage by inappropriate use of supplements.

On that basis - I'm done being silent on this.

While it is true all that is possible on here is generic advice, if this at least gives people a framework to consider then I'll be happy *

* Obviously, taking individual and personalised advice on supplementation is 100% best done with a qualified practitioner like myself who has the clinical experience and knowledge to make sure you are helping and not harming yourself or your purse ☺

Reverse habits of a lifetime and take control of your health - honestly, YOU can do it.

I've got space for just two more clients to start working with me this month.

Book in for a free exploratory chat via my website if you might like to be one of them.

💡What do you really want to know about nutrition and supplements?

💡What do you always wonder but feel silly asking?

Never before has there been so much noise and opinions about what you should and should not be eating. Confused?

To mark my 50th birthday tomorrow I thought I'd open the floor to you! (I know, you thought I was only 35...to be honest, so do I)

Over the next few weeks I will answer questions popped onto this post in the comments.

💡Will we get to 50 questions? 💡

Get some no nonsense and straightforward answers from me over the next few weeks - after all, I now qualify as a wise lady in age and not just qualifications and clinical experience 😉😂

PS. If you want to remain anonymous please DM me and no names will be mentioned in the response
