About me
Amanda is a Registered Nutritional Therapist, Health Coach and one of the founding practitioners at True Food Nutrition.
Amanda's clinic supports those who are facing the challenges that are all too often experienced in our day-to-day lives - struggling to manage weight, fatigue and a constant lack of energy, lack of sleep, stress and issues with gut health and food sensitivities, all of which can be an indication of hormone imbalance.
But when life gets crazy, we don’t have the time or the energy to listen to our hormones when they are asking for help or even if we do, where to start? Amanda can provide you with that start, a start that is do-able, enjoyable and one that will motivate you to keep moving forward with positivity towards achieving your health goals.
"Amanda is just amazing. She has a wealth of information and things to try to help with my symptoms. After an hour with Amanda, I no longer felt like a crazy lady."

Effective and tailor-made programmes
All of Amanda's programmes aim to create healthy, lifelong habits without missing out on enjoying food and drink with family and friends. This approach allows you to navigate your symptoms comfortably while being supported every step of the way.
You are warmly invited to book a complementary call with Amanda, giving you the opportunity to talk through your health concerns and challenges, and discover how working together can support you in overcoming these.
"Amanda has found the perfect balance of clear expertise and depth of knowledge alongside caring and considerate delivery. The time spent with Amanda has benefited my health, general wellbeing and happiness hugely."

Training, qualifications & experience
Amanda trained at the College of Naturopathic Medicine (CNM) and graduated with Distinction.
Her practice at True Food Nutrition offers a range of ways in which you can work together that will give you the support that you need when you need it, allowing you to achieve the best results.
Amanda enjoys giving talks and workshops for various local and national groups and organisations and has collaborated with a chain of sports stores to give talks on nutrition and lifestyle to their customers and staff. She is also actively involved in a local menopause support group.
Amanda is fully insured and a member of the professional body, the British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and is registered with the Complementary and Natural Health Care Council (CNHC), the UK regulatory body for complementary health care practitioners.
Having spent a lifetime around food (Amanda's parents are both chefs), she strongly believes that good food and nutrition does have the power to restore health and quality of life. It was this belief that led Amanda to train as a Nutritional Therapist, and it is this food-first ethos that is central to her practice.

Information about health conditions (*)
Nutritional therapy can help enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting nutritional therapy or making any major changes to your diet or lifestyle.

Further information
"I met Amanda when I was undergoing quite a stressful time at work and had slipped into some bad eating habits. I felt exhausted, burnt out and had quite low mood and poor memory. Amanda unpicked my eating patterns and quickly determined the nutritional deficiencies my diet had created. By providing easy and quick recipes and clever ideas to incorporate the nutrients I lacked, Amanda supported a long-term beneficial change. I can now say that after several months I am finally beginning to feel like a younger and more energetic version of myself again!"
