If you know what your specific goal is – what you want to achieve- package descriptions are below,
find the best match for your goal.
Be Stronger
Are you getting sick most of the time and prone to infections and generally feeling ill? A poor immune system leaves us open to easily catch colds, flu and gastric problems, to name but a few. This package is designed to strengthen the immune system which protects us against infections, viruses and bacteria.
70-80% of immune cells are found in the gut and are dependent on healthy gut bacteria (Wiertsema et al., 2021)*. Moreover, 95% serotonin hormone (happiness hormone) production takes places in the gut (Terry & Margolis, 2016)**.
I will guide you in this programme to restore your healthy gut function and rebuild your immune system through healthy diet and lifestyle changes. After gut healing, you will experience better protection against future sickness and illness, moreover you will reach your happiest mood and concentration. Together, we will bring you to a happier and stronger wellbeing.

In this programme, you will not only improve your immunity but reduce symptoms such as IBS, bloating, food intolerance, allergies and food sensitivities, bowel movement and any skin issues. Also, recognisable changes in cognitive function.
I use the functional medicine 5R approach during the progress of the programme. Each month we will concentrate further on aspects of the 5R. Therefore, some months require more research and consultation time than others. The 5Rs are as follows:
- Remove Nutrient depleted food, processed foods, poor quality fats and oils, parasites, molds, chemicals, Infections, and foods that don’t agree with us.
- Replace Processed foods with whole foods, high quality nutrients, if needed digestive enzymes, hydrochloric acid (HCL) and bile salts, to support digestive function.
- Reinoculate Beneficial probiotics and prebiotics from food and supplements.
- Repair Using right foods and supplements repairing the gut.
- Rebalance Discover your “new normal” which may be the healthiest you’ve ever felt or not quite as great as you’d like. Investigate your lifestyle: stress management, sleeping quality, regular exercise.
This is teamwork, and it requires full commitment and dedication. After completing the programme, you will be able to maintain your body awareness and of the importance of your gut health.
At the beginning this programme requires a functional laboratory tests: stool test.

How it works
As all consultations are via zoom you can access me no matter where you are
Once you have decided to go ahead and committed to nutritional therapy you will be sent an in-depth health questionnaire and a 5-day food diary.
This needs to be filled in and returned 3 days before the initial consultation. This gives me enough research time to understand the possible root causes of your symptoms and prepare for the first consultation.
We are all biochemically unique therefore to help in achieving your goals, we may discuss any functional test related to your body imbalances and symptoms.
The functional laboratory tests that I can order are a combination of stool, urine, saliva and sometimes blood. Labs which utilize the first three, test samples can be easily done at home and simply need to be dropped off at UPS or Royal Mail. For labs that require a blood sample there is a centre in Central London which can be attended. For those living outside London other centres are available and I can provide a location on request; all centres make a charge for this service, and it varies from centre to centre.
Note: The costs of these laboratory tests and supplement purchases are not included in package prices.
