Hi, I’m Helen, Naturopathic Nutritional Therapist and mother of 3. After years of working in the office environment, I gave it all up nearly nine years ago. I qualified in 2015 and since then I have made it my mission to help others. The main reason for changing my lifestyle was for health, I underwent a double mastectomy eight years ago, followed by the removal of both my ovaries, to avoid ‘a train that was heading straight my way’ (breast cancer). I come from a family of 6 girls, out of the 6, 5 were diagnosed with breast cancer, sadly 3 passed away and happily 2 won their fight. Food was always a passion of mine, but also I realized how important what I ate was in relation to my ongoing health. Having travelled extensively, also part Aussie and living with a French man, I am an avid cook so if recipes are something you struggle with, I’ll send you home with heaps. My outlook is all about stripping back the nutrition misinformation and making healthy eating simple again, Eating Real Food, and I believe that vitality comes from eating foods as close to their natural or original state as possible. Getting rid of excess weight, symptoms such as IBS, reflux, gout, arthritis, candida, eczema, chronic fatigue.…relief from these things will all come from nourishing the body with what you put into it. And once they’re taken care of you will have a body that is thriving, hence the birth of UTHRIVE.
