Hello, and welcome to NutrificientLife, as in'nutritionally efficient life'. I trained in medicine before building a specialist focus on nutrition through clinical practice, public health, education and the food industry.
My background
- NHS & private healthcare: one-to-one consultations, telephone clinics, workshops and health promotion for people of all ages.
- Public health: as a Public Health Improvement Officer with Well Doncaster, and at Royal Brompton Hospital, London, I led community interventions to improve nutrition and reduce health inequalities, working with the NHS, councils and national government on food, labelling and HFSS policy.
- Early years: six years as a Registered Nutrition Professional and Independent Consultant with Early Years Alliance, managing nursery portfolios and designing training on nutrition, food safety and sustainable food. This shapes the nursery and childminder support I offer today.
- Food industry: from 2022 to 2026, as National Health & Nutrition lead (CSR) at Aldi UK/IE, I ran HFSS legislation compliance across Great Britain and Ireland, delivered Sustainable Food Plans and reached 100% HFSS compliance, recognised with several industry awards.
- Teaching: distance-learning tutor in Nutrition & Health, Diabetes Management, and Sports, Exercise & Nutrition, mentoring and assessing future health professionals.
How I work
I do not believe in restrictive diets, detoxes or one-size-fits-all plans. I work with the food you already eat, and for many of my clients that is South Asian, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean or vegetarian-first. I adjust portions, cooking methods, balance and habits so your everyday meals support your goals. My approach is evidence-based, grounded in NICE and SACN guidance, compassionate and completely non-judgemental, and I work alongside your doctor where a medical condition is involved.
Who I work with
Adults, children and families across the UK and internationally, online. Common reasons people come to me include PCOS/PMOS, Type 2 diabetes, menopause, weight management, gut and digestive health, cardiovascular health, nutritional deficiencies, dietary restrictions and pregnancy. Every consultation is tailored to your goals, medical history, lifestyle and preferences.
