Root and Leaf Nutrition, Headington (2025)

18/07/2025

11 years ago, I was in my second trimester with my first son.
grateful, still terrified (if I’m honest), and googling every symptom under the sun.

I was 37, as everyone kept reminding me, and pretty much a geriatric mum. 😉

I’d gone back to study nutrition out of curiosity,
but it became the thing that anchored me in my preconception, in pregnancy, in motherhood, in my second fertility journey later and eventually in my work.

Now I’m turning 48
And I want to give you something I wish I’d had back then:

Not trends but the latest insights, tools and products that have helped me and my clients.
Layered in daily life and quietly revolutionary.

Starting July 31st AKA my birthday, I’m launching a free summer series called
The Compounding Effect.

12 days.
48 insights.
The kind of knowledge that builds over time,
and actually makes thw difference.

These are the top patterns I’ve noticed in my last 5 years in practice with my fertility clients.

The ones who go on to get their BFP don’t all follow the same path — but they do tend to do things differently.

They track their full cycle (no fertile windows ‘predicted’ by an app or just OPKs).
They dig deeper with testing (not all at once) — and don’t settle for “everything looks normal.”
They take time to heal, instead of rushing into the next round or the next pregnancy (it’s tempting but it can be counterproductive)
They get their partners involved — it’s never just HER job.

💛 They moved from information overload to a plan that was science based but felt aligned and doable — one that gave them real clarity, and a sense of being supported.

✨ Of course, not every BFP happens during our time together.
Some come a few months later. And some, heartbreakingly, haven’t come (…yet).
But the transformation — the clarity, confidence, and renewed trust in their body — that always happens.

🎓 I’ll walk you through the top steps for this new journey in my free masterclass:

You’ve been trying - with everything you’ve got.

Taking the supplements, connecting with other TTC warriors. You may have even cut out all sugar and coffee.

But the tests are negative months after months and there’s heartache after heartache and setbacks all over the place

The truth is: it’s not about doing more.
It’s about doing things differently
Getting curious
Asking different questions

The power of hindsight...

I rarely jump on social media trends, but this isn’t just a trend—it’s a love letter to my younger self.

It’s what we all wish we knew, even when our intuition whispers that there’s still hope.

To anyone in the trenches of TTC, I hope this brings you a moment of hope and a gentle reminder to show yourself the love that’s often so hard to find in the hardest moments.

Sending love and hope to you all—especially with tomorrow being Valentine’s Day. ❤️

The film Joy about the birth of IVF was incredible—but it left me with some lingering thoughts.

IVF is one of the greatest scientific breakthroughs, giving hope to millions. The movie beautifully captures the journey, especially through Jean Purdy’s perspective (what a powerhouse!).

While the science of IVF has progressed much up to now, I feel - and I see this often in my nutrition practice every day - that a massive piece of the puzzle has been left behind.

Functional Medicine shows us how interconnected our bodies truly are and unfortunately that understanding hasn’t made it into the IVF world enough.

We know now so much more, beyond our hormone results and number of a scale:

Diet and lifestyle improve egg and s***m quality

Taking a supplement won’t fill all the nutrition needs for healthy preconception, especially if this is not chosen with care

Reproductive microbiomes (vaginal and seminal) influence implantation and miscarriage risks

Oxidative stress can be slowed down or reversed with the right tools.

There is a world of opportunity between “Why is this taking so long?” and “Let’s go straight to IVF”,

I explore that world of opportunity in my new group program Fertility Decoded.

All the details are in my bio, and the early bird is ending tomorrow, but I bet we’ve all been “black-fridayed-out” this past week.

So, there are two ways you can extend the EB discount:

Book a free call with me - as long as it’s in the diary by the end of tomorrow.

Or join the Q&A session inside Fertility Decoded, for free and take a sneak peek, on Thursday 5th of December 6:30 PM.

DM me or comment the word JOY and I’ll send you the links for both options.

I see this 👆 too many times not to care.

This is not just one client story.

When we follow the order of events above with my 1:1 clients, this is when things shift in a fertility journey.

And this is why I’m focusing on all of these steps in my new group program Fertility Decoded

- Blood testing to address nutrient deficiencies and personalise your supplements
- Vaginal microbiome testing to support implantation
- Hormonal balance to spot trends and what needs supporting
- Gut microbiome Optimization to support immune balance and so much more!
- And Male Fertility. You just can’t leave this out and he needs to be involved in all the steps above.

DM me the word SHIFT or book a free call in my bio to see if this can work for your story too.

Doors are opening next week. And the early price is only on until December 2’d.

This is not a Black Friday offer but an unbeatable introductory offer to my new Fertility Decoded Group Program.

I had a lot of hesitation about launching this just before Christmas but this support is SOOO needed.

I see it all the time when I speak to you and see the amount of research you do, yet you don’t know what to do next.

You know there’s more that can be done to improve your chances but you don’t know what.

You want a plan.

This is why I created Fertility Decoded - your new roadmap with:

🤯Learning about your body and fertility in a way that was never explained to you

🤝 Community support in a safe and respectful space

🎗️Weekly touch points with me and 1:1 support included

The learning is based on crucial testing areas to guide you through the foundations of optimal fertility.

But you don’t have to do all the testing, you’ll learn a lot by simply following the guidelines that are closest to what your body is telling you and to your symptoms.

I’ll help you to interpret your data and your body signals.

So you can stop spinning your wheels and start following a plan that is based on your OWN data and your OWN unique journey.

Enrollment is open for 2 weeks at

The fertility statistics are frightening but so is not doing anything about it.

We all have a lot of power in our hands - more than we think.

Let me show you that fertility can be improved and restored.

Awareness is so important but action is even more powerful.

That’s why I have created a free masterclass called Become Your Own Fertility Sherlock.

Looking at your nutrition and lifestyle with real data and an objective view should be part of the preparation for preconception and/or fertility treatment.

But it’s not - and this needs to change

The things that I see in my practice, day in and day out, really affect fertility are:

💉nutrient deficiencies, you can’t just rely on folic acid or a bucket load of coQ10 alone.

🩲ignoring the emerging science on the vaginal microbiome

📈tracking ovulation the wrong way, without considering what happens after

🤦‍♂️Underestimating the male side or just using a semen analysis as the reason to ignore it

I have crammed so many of these sticking points, and my answers, in my free Masterclass - Become your own Fertility Sherlock

Join me on November 7th at 7 PM - Comment SHERLOCK and I’ll see you there!

P.S If you can’t make it, register anyway so you can get the replay.

Conventional fertility investigations take time and often they don’t dig deep enough into why things are not happening as quickly as you thought.

Join me for a deep dive into fertility testing

I’ll teach you what you can request - yes even through your GP.

Learn what some of your results mean and how you could use them to select the right supplements for you.

We’ll also explore an often overlooked hormone to keep an eye on

Plus the low down on Vaginal microbiome testing and what it can tell us for the male side too.

You’ll walk away feeling like you know which tests to asks for, or to do privately, during the long wait…

And finally starting to uncover some of the answers you’ve been searching for.

So you can move forward even if you feel like you’re in a limbo.

Instead of wishing time away, you can take every month as a new opportunity to learn about yourself and your body.

You don’t have to navigate this journey alone, feeling like there’s something wrong with you.

You just may need a little help to point you in the right directions.

Join me by signing up to my Free Masterclass “How to become your own Fertility Sherlock” and we’ll figure things out together.

Comment READY below and I’ll send you the link x

From “confusion to clarity” testimonial

When my client joined my Test ‘n Thrive program, she was feeling lost and overwhelmed. 100% plant-based and trying her best to eat healthy, she was still experiencing dips in energy and struggling with her fertility journey. 🥬🌱 Despite supplementing with a mix of individual vitamins and minerals, she felt unsure if she was truly getting the nutrients needed to support her TTC journey.

Swipe through to see how we worked together to cut through the confusion, optimize her nutrition, and empower her with a clear path forward. 🌱

How We Worked Together:

1️⃣ Comprehensive Blood Testing: Pinpointed nutrient gaps and areas that needed attention.

2️⃣ Advanced Thyroid Testing: AKA not just TSH, this is crucial with a history of miscarriage.

3️⃣ Vaginal Microbiome Testing: Provided insights (and in her case reassurance) again super crucial with a history of miscarriage or unexplained infertility.

4️⃣ Education on Hormone Tracking: Helped her understand her cycle better

5️⃣ Diet Personalization: Crafted an eating plan tailored to her unique need and genetics (which we had some info about)—focused on optimizing energy and supporting fertility.

6️⃣ Supplement Optimization: Simplified her supplement protocol, ensuring correct dosages and the right nutrients for her specific needs.

✨ “Thank you for your help, Milena. I feel much better with my health and think I’m in a better place to continue with my fertility journey. I feel healthier, with more energy, and am excited to keep improving!” ✨

If you’re overwhelmed by mixed messages, or just need clarity on your fertility journey, let’s chat. Type FREE CHAT below, and I’ll send you the link to book a call. 📞

The summer is almost over and dare I say I already heard someone mention the C word (Christmas)! 😳 today!

There’s still time for your 2024 to give you the plot twist that you’ve been waiting for or to lay some solid foundations for 2025.

September feels like a new January to me. It’s an even better January - if your ask me -with the special light and resources of late summer.

I’m not the only one who feels this and it’s already looking like a busy month in clinic. Lots of clients reaching out for personalised support and wanting to keep track of their health with testing.

I still have some space left for new clients to start their personalised journey to better fertility and stronger health.

So I have decided to list all the different ways I work in my clinic 👆

Remember, I always offer a free chat if you’re interested in my support and to see which service is the best fit for you.

Links added to my stories/highlights but feel free to comment FREEBIES and I’ll DM you the direct links (we need to follow each other for this). X
