Deborah McTaggart, MSc.
About me
I am a Registered Nutritionist specialising in working with high performing individuals. Using evidenced-based, practical solutions, my tailored programmes can increase energy and performance, sharpen focus, improving sleep and immunity to help you reach your health goal.
I work closely with organisations and individuals, helping people with all health concerns to create sustainable, long-term health resilience. My special interests are Men's Health, Shift Work, & Travel Wellness | Jet Lag.
As well as a MSc (Hons) in Holistic Nutrition, I am a qualified Registered Nutrition Consulting Practitioner and a Registered Orthomolecular Health Practitioner, registered with the International Organisation of Nutrition Consultants (www.ionc.org) and a Provisional Member of BANT.
I have trained in functional medicine, and offer genetic and laboratory testing in clinic. I have written for publications and researched nutrition and performance health for over 10 years. I have gained resilience expertise through the Resilience Institute, my current training: Covid
My mission is to transform my clients’ lives in realistic and practical ways, offering a bespoke service that fits in with everyday life. I want you to make changes that are attainable, and with maximum benefits.
In my corporate work I offer online training and workshops for your team, and one 2 one leadership consultations.
Originally from New Zealand, I grew up with a love of fresh, whole food in a natural environment. My past work in high profile, high octane global documentaries saw me travelling frequently, globally. This experience helps me when working with my clients, as I understand what it means to perform in a high energy demand arena when working remotely.
