Today many people are regularly bombarded with toxins from pesticides in food, food additives, preservatives, air pollution, heavy metals, drugs, chemicals in household products and stress. These toxins can accumulate in the body creating an imbalance that may result in any of the following:
* Allergies
* Bad breath
* Constipation
* Depression
* Fatigue
* Headaches
* Hormonal imbalances
* Indigestion
* Menopausal problems
* Obesity
* PMS
* Sinus congestion
* Sleep disorders
In addition, modern farming practices, long-term cold storage and irradiation treatment can seriously deplete the nutritional value of our food.
Whether you are looking for reliable, tailored advice as to what supplements you should be taking, or you want to improve the balance of your diet for health reasons without taking supplements, please contact me and I can help set you on the path towards improved health and wellbeing
Our bodies are like a chain of independently linked organs and systems. Like a chain, our overall health is only as good as the weakest link.
System weaknesses may be inherited, influenced by the environment or the result of an injury. Lifestyle choices can challenge the body in many ways, and is the greatest source of deterioration on the ten links in our 'chain of life', i.e.:
- Circulatory
- Digestive
- Glandular
- Immune
- Intestinal
- Nervous
- Respiratory
- Skins
- Structural
- Urinary
If any of these systems are weakened and that weakness is not addressed, over time other body systems will also be adversely affected.
My approach to natural health is quite simple; find the weakest link and strengthen it before it snaps.
To find your weakest link, book in for a personal consultation
A full consultation based on your general health and lifestyle
An in-depth Lifestyle Analysis to identify which systems are strong and which are weaker
pH balance test to find out if your body is too acid or too alkaline
Dietary advice to support the pH balance test
Optional advice on nutritional, herbal, vitamin and mineral supplements
50% of the cost of the consultation will be deducted from the price of products purchased on a value of over £20 and fully reimbursed for orders valued over £50.
We also run:
*Weight loss programmes
*Parties themed on natural health
*Health presentations

Pacifies Vata and Pitta
Traditionally used in Ayurveda to gently detoxify the body and support proper nutrition by stimulating the body's metabolism to improve digestion and eliminate waste products. Weight gain can be attributed to a combination of various factors including diet, lifestyle and genetics. Improperly digested food creates toxins that coat the digestive tract, inhibiting absorption and leading to the accumulation of fat in the tissues

Turmeric has been a traditional household item for centuries and is used as an effective anti-inflammatory agent for swollen and painful joints. It is considered to directly inhibit the enzymes that cause inflammation in the body and it is also believed to have significant antioxidant property
The main active component in Turmeric is curcumin, which is found in the root of the plant. It is curcumin which is responsible for the bright yellow colour Turmeric gives to food, especially curries
Whilst it is possible to increase the Turmeric level in your diet, large quantities would need to be consumed daily to meet a level consistent with that found in a supplement form
Turmeric can be taken safely alongside products such as glucosamine sulphate. Many experts believe Turmeric and glucosamine sulphate complement each other as Turmeric is thought to be fast acting compared to a more long term approach offered by glucosamine sulphate
