About me

My passion is to try to help people who feel forgotten or left behind in dealing with a chronic health issue.

If something has become chronic or persistent then the immune system is not functioning appropriately.  My primary target is always to support the immune system with food and supplements so that it may better deal with the chronic issue and with future health challenges.

I work to support the immune system in the context of many different health issues.  If you would like to nurture your immune system so that it can do its job of protecting you, then I would love to work with you to help bring you to better current and future health.

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.
