Nutritional expertise
Evidence-based nutritionist Glasgow
No two people’s journey through the 360 Personalised Nutrition Programme is the same. Rather, I respond to and tailor the content to your highly specific needs, preferences, and lifestyle. If you’re looking for support in any of the following areas, I can help you optimise your diet for a healthier, happier life via your unique route through the programme.
-
Weight loss
Traditional approaches to weight loss (eat less, move more) are based on the ‘Calories In, Calories Out’ theory, which treats all calories as equal, but this is not the case.
-
Reducing inflammation
Dietary inflammation may be causing you a lot of discomfort. I can help you adopt an anti-inflammatory diet, easing your symptoms and protecting you from almost all chronic disease.
-
Optimising gut health
The gut affects your entire body – your digestion, metabolism, immune system, nervous system, hormones and skin, affecting everything from your weight, blood sugar control and inflammation to your thinking, mood, mental health and sleep. I can help you optimise your gut health to address issues in any of these areas.
-
Optimising metabolic health
I can help you balance your blood sugar, improve blood fats (cholesterol, triglycerides), blood pressure, reduce your waistline (lose high-risk abdominal fat), prevent and treat prediabetes, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, all lowering your risk of cardiovascular disease.
-
Ketogenic & low-carb diets
Over the last five years, I’ve developed and refined a novel, modified ketogenic diet that overcomes many of the limitations of traditional ketogenic diets. My approach is suitable for anyone wishing to follow a gently ketogenic diet.
-
Multi-diet approach
I take a multi-diet approach, allowing you to reap the benefits from all 5 of the following diets: low-GI, anti-inflammatory, gently ketogenic, gut health-promoting, and, ideally, sugar-free.
-
Food intolerances
Many commercially available tests claim to diagnose food intolerance, but none are evidence-based. They can cause considerable harm via unnecessary exclusion of foods, leading to nutritional deficiencies, impaired gut health, and reduced quality of life. I can help you navigate this complex area, ensuring your diet is as inclusive as possible and reintroducing ease and enjoyment around food.
-
Healthy relationship with food
(Re)Discover freedom and joy in food. I can help you (re)cultivate a healthy relationship with food, liberating you from the restrictive thinking that sets you up for repeating cycles of denial, giving in, overindulgence, guilt, shame, then back to denial and the whole cycle all over again. (Please note I am not qualified to deal with active eating disorders.)
