You might feel that there's more you could be doing to improve your health, but aren't sure where to start.
A functional nutrition-led approach can help join the dots - so why not start your journey towards better health today?
Food is the body’s fuel
Whereas the wrong foods can be extremely detrimental to your health, foods suited to your specific needs can have a profound effect on your energy, mood, immune status, and vitality. However, navigating the complex, evolving world of nutrition can often seem like a daunting prospect. With Samantha’s expert guidance, application of the functional approach can steer you on a clear pathway towards better health.
Samantha is a published researcher and an evidence-based Nutritional Therapist using a functional medicine approach in Personalised Nutrition. With over two decades in clinical practice, she is highly experienced in a wide range of conditions, especially in the area of gut health. Rather than simply managing symptoms, Samantha believes in establishing underlying contributing factors behind imbalances in order to provide long-term health benefits. Her dedication to evidence-based practice is reflected in her published research in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, ensuring her clinical approach is always grounded in the latest science. Samantha likes to work closely and compassionately with clients, empowering them with the appropriate tools to help them achieve their health goals.
Although she sees a broad range of clients, Samantha’s specialisms in gut health and chronic illness are reflected in her MSc research work, now published in the Journal of the American Nutrition Association (Taylor & Francis). Her research investigated the relationship between the intestinal microbiome, immune regulation, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis, along with the therapeutic potential of vitamin D.
Samantha is also passionate about supporting women navigate the complexities of hormonal change including Peri and Post Menopause.
Samantha draws on her original naturopathic nutrition knowledge and extensive clinical experience, combining it with current scientific evidence to help individuals successfully improve their quality of life.
You can read her research paper entitled Investigating the Link between the Intestinal Microbiome and Th17/Treg Dysregulation in Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, and the Therapeutic Potential of Vitamin D in the Journal of the American Nutrition Association (Taylor & Francis).
