About Us
“When I was growing up, food was just fuel, and sit-down meals (usually mince and tatties!) a tortuous waste of time. All that changed in 1989 when I chanced upon a copy of ‘Ultrahealth’ by Leslie Kenton. At first I didn’t understand – what did all these pictures of salads and fruit and bottles of pills have to do with these fabulously healthy-looking people? What on earth was Conjugated Linoleic Acid or Spirulina? I read on however, and was soon utterly convinced – and hooked.
My research continued, and the more I found out about disease and nutrition, the more committed I became. How could it be that millions of people were suffering such easily treatable diseases? How could the health service be wasting so much money, how could doctors and surgeons and drug companies be getting it so terribly wrong? The idea that poor health is not natural, that degenerative disease is not inevitable, that our everyday health, our well being, our longevity is not just shaped, but is so fundamentally dependent on our diet – it seems obvious now, but then it was a total revelation.
Another revelation was finding that there were a small number of pioneering people actually using this new knowledge to treat and prevent disease. I had at one stage investigated dietetics, but was disappointed to find its scope so limited and its wholesale rejection of nutritional supplements effectively at odds with what I had learnt. After gaining my science qualification however, I was able to attend the Institute of Optimum Nutrition in London for three years. This is one of the most prestigious and well-respected colleges of nutrition therapy in the UK, and many of the students had travelled from abroad to attend it.
I’m now settled in Edinburgh and run my own busy nutrition therapy practice. I get to meet so many fantastic people, and I’m yet to work with a patient that hasn’t benefited from nutrition therapy. Although every case is different, the reward of seeing a successful outcome is as thrilling as ever.”
