Before we focus on performance, we need to make sure the body is functioning at its best.

When I work with athletes, we start by assessing their overall health - looking at key body systems like:
✔️ Gut health
✔️ Endocrine (hormone) balance
✔️ Detoxification and inflammation levels

Why does this matter?
Because if your body is inflamed, stressed, or out of balance, it won’t fully respond to even the best training plans or nutrition strategies.

This is the foundation of integrative sports nutrition - it’s about so much more than just macros, calories, or fuelling protocols.
We look at the whole body to build a strong, healthy base for peak performance, faster recovery, and long-term resilience.

It’s so different how we eat in the heat anyway, isn’t it? 🥵

But for athletes, when you’re training hard and recovery is key, it becomes even more important to make sure you’re getting the nutrients your body needs and at the right times.

With several athletes I’m currently supporting through their off-season training, we’ve been making summer-specific adjustments like:

💧 Prioritising hydration and electrolytes
🥗 Switching to lighter, easily digested meals
🧠 Supporting recovery and stress by working on gut and hormone health
😴 Putting extra focus on sleep quality and routine

Heat puts extra stress on the body - and if you don’t adjust your fuelling to match, it can really hold back performance and recovery.

Your body’s needs change in the summer. Your nutrition should too.

It might sound funny - but it’s one of the quickest and easiest ways to check your hydration!

✔️ Pale yellow or almost clear = well-hydrated
✔️ Yellow-dark yellow = early signs of dehydration

This matters even more during:
☀️ Hot weather
🏋️‍♂️ Tough training
💦 Heavy sweating

But here’s the thing…

If you’re sweating a lot, you’re also losing key electrolytes - like sodium, potassium & magnesium - which are crucial for performance, energy, and recovery.

My current favourite electrolyte products:

✔️ Cellular Hydration
✔️ Electrolyte Fix
✔️ Electrolytes

➡️ Plus, an easy homemade electrolyte recipe you can make yourself!

💡 Hydration is just as important as food! Stay ahead of it!

When working with athletes- whether recreational or professional- small margins often make all the difference.

That’s why I focus on ensuring their body systems function at their best before diving into nutrition plans.

While it’s definitely possible to adjust nutrition based on training alone, these 4 tests offer valuable tools to fine-tune each athlete’s individual needs:

• Hormone testing is especially useful if we suspect imbalances, including adrenal hormones, which often work harder in athletes under stress.

• Stool analysis helps identify gut health issues that might affect digestion and nutrient absorption.

• Comprehensive blood tests give an overall picture of health and nutrient status, highlighting deficiencies that can impact performance.

• Genetic testing reveals each athlete’s unique biology, helping us personalise nutrition strategies for their specific needs.

I’m based in Canterbury and also work online, supporting athletes locally and globally.

My Elite Performance Programme includes Genetic Testing as a standard part of creating truly personalised plans.

👋 Hello there! I’m Eva — Registered Nutritionist (BANT) & Sports Nutritionist (BDA SENr).

I help emerging athletes fuel for peak performance, healthy growth, and long-term success.

How did I end up here? Well… I love science. I love food. And I strongly believe that what we eat makes a huge difference in how we feel, function, and perform.

After completing my degree in Nutritional Science, I felt something was missing - I wanted to truly understand how to unlock athletic potential. So, I went on to complete my Master’s in Sports Nutrition.

Since then, I’ve been lucky to work with many athletes- both recreational and professional - and I LOVE seeing the results that smart, personalised nutrition can bring.

I’m big on a whole-body approach- because your body has to feel safe and nourished to perform at its best.

There’s no one-size-fits-all here—we look at:

⚡️ Hormones
⚡️ Gut health
⚡️ Genetic potential
⚡️ Your sport, your lifestyle, your story

A little more about me?

🇱🇻 Originally from Latvia, but I’ve now lived in England longer than I did back home.

👦 Mum to two sporty teenage boys (plus two equally energetic dogs!).

🌊 Living by the sea in Kent.

🎾 Big fan of sports - both playing and watching (yes, I’m glued to Wimbledon right now).

If you (or your young athlete) are ready to fuel for the next level, drop me a message or visit my website to learn how I can help!.

One of the most common things I see in sporty, active people who come to see me is this: they don’t seem to have enough energy.

They want to train hard, but they just don’t have the energy. And 9 times out of 10, it’s not because of something is up with them—it’s because they’re simply not eating enough to support their training. Or they’re eating at the wrong times for their body to actually use that fuel properly.

Once we tweak their food intake and get the timing right? Energy comes back, training improves, recovery is faster, and they feel like themselves again.

If you’ve been feeling flat and can’t figure out why, you’re not alone—and it’s something that can be fixed. Send me a DM if you want to chat more about it

Your body needs much more than just the basics when you’re active!

Whether it’s the sport you do, your age, health, or gender — there are so many factors to consider.

The ‘Eat Well Plate’ is a dated recommendation. If you’re doing sports, you need more than that to optimize your performance, support your body, and prevent injuries.

Such a great source of high-quality protein and good fats. I get these beauties from a lovely farm in Blean.

Stopped by after a visit to Christchurch Uni, where we spoke to students about the importance of protein—most were surprised to learn they’re not getting enough!

Are you hitting your protein needs?

🎄 Ditch the Processed Christmas Junk – Here’s How to Make Healthy, Delicious Treats Instead! 🎄

It’s shocking how early the Christmas junk food season starts—straight after Halloween, shelves are packed with mince pies, Christmas cakes, and other processed treats loaded with ingredients you’d never put in your own baking (if you even recognize them at all!).

The problem? These ultra-processed goodies aren’t just for Christmas Day anymore. By December, they’ve become a daily indulgence for many, and most are packed with:
🚫 Artificial additives
🚫 Excessive sugar
🚫 Low-quality fats

If it were just for Christmas, it wouldn’t be such a big deal. But the constant snacking on these treats drains your energy, messes with your mood, and takes away from the real joy of festive eating.

✨ What if this year, you made your own treats? ✨
It’s easier than you think! You’ll:
✔️ Know exactly what’s going into your food.
✔️ Skip the nasties and choose wholesome ingredients.
✔️ Actually enjoy them more because they’re homemade.

That’s why I’ve put together a collection of healthy Christmas treat recipes just for you! These recipes are:
🎅 Easy to make.
🎅 Festive and full of flavor.
🎅 Packed with better-for-you ingredients—without sacrificing taste.

Download your free recipes from a link in my bio, or DM me 🎄 and I will send them over 🎁

Let’s make this Christmas about quality, not processed convenience. Your body—and taste buds—will thank you! 🌟
