My story begins in 1998. I had spent the year feeling generally unwell; I gained weight, was tired and irritable, and had headaches almost everyday. I went to the doctor but although she was sympathetic she could find nothing wrong with me. I might have remained feeling that way to this day if a local chemist had not been offering a free test for food intolerances. The results suggested I was intolerant to cheese, mushrooms and yeast. At first I could not see the link between these three foods, but I was advised to buy a book on Candida Albicans. I bought the book and took it home to read: and as I read it I cried. It described exactly how I had been feeling for months, and even told me what I could begin to do about it. It was a great weight off my mind to discover that I was not alone and that something could be done about my symptoms. The relief was enormous! I began the anti-candida diet and anti-fungal program while my husband was on his annual trip to India – when he returned after three weeks he hardly recognized me. I had lost weight and the puffiness around my face had disappeared. More importantly, I was feeling better: no more headaches and irritability. But that was just the first step. I had made a good start but found I couldn’t continue without help from an experienced Nutrition Therapist. In searching for a therapist I discovered the Institute of Optimum Nutrition and the following year enrolled as a student – giving up my teaching job the year after that. My goal is to provide people with the kind of relief that I felt when I first picked up that book on Candida Albicans and offer help for people with chronic, debilitating, but unexplained symptoms.
I qualified as a Nutrition Therapist three years ago and today I work
in three clinics in South Yorkshire as a Nutrition Consultant. Information
can be found on the Clinic page. I speak at Conferences and run training
programmes. I also teach meditation for stress reduction and can combine
this with nutrition to provide a corporate package aimed at reducing absenteeism
through stress related disorders. Information about all of these can be
found at www.foodsteps.info |
