Read on for my journey...

It is not “normal’ to experience erratic hormonal related symptoms during normal life events such as puberty, childbirth or menopause.

JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS COMMON DOESN’T MEAN IT’S NORMAL!

You may be suffering from PMS (premenstrual syndrome) and all of the associated symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, weight gain, digestive issues, irritability.

You might be peri-menopausal and experiencing irregular or heavy periods, fibroids, hair loss, migraines, mood swings, digestive issues, weight gain and cramps.

If you are menopausal you may feel loss of libido, confidence, self-esteem, and/or any of the other associated symptoms.

Let’s find your hormone balance so you feel energised and empowered again.

Sports Nutrition

Sports nutrition is often assumed to be required for only elite athletes. Yet, whether you are a member of a local sports team, recreational runner or take part in keep fit classes, the importance of adjusted nutritional needs to support your activity level cannot be overlooked.

I am a keen recreational runner myself, and therefore highly value the magnitude of the nutritional role in energy, recovery and endurance.

Assurance that your body is being supplied with the right levels of vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats and carbohydrates in order to function optimally so that the cells, tissues and organs can function at their peak is a key consideration in the performance packages, therefore some functional tests, such as nutrient and blood panels are typically included.

If you are an athlete, your levels of training, environment requirements and genetic predisposition will mean that your nutrition demands will be greater than most. Supporting your body at the cellular level is vital for hitting your energy metabolism.

Please contact me to discuss your individual requirements.

Diagnostic Testing

Why get tested?

Root Cause

My philosophy when working with clients is to get to the root cause of the problem rather than just supporting symptoms. Fatigue, anxiety, poor skin and gut issues can all be impacted by imbalances within the body. Testing helps to identify these so that nutritional and lifestyle prescriptions are targeted to achieve impact and speedy results.

Individual

Functional testing allows me to understand your unique imbalances. My recommended protocol will be based on this. One size does not fit all and testing means a personalised programme with faster results.

Empowering

Functional testing validates your symptoms and empowers you to make the changes that you need. It provides a benchmark and motivation to optimise health and wellbeing.

Most common tests used:

Well persons Plus Thyroid screen (blood draw)

This comprehensive blood screening test highlights imbalances or deficiencies that may be contributing to your symptoms.

The blood screening looks at:

  • Full blood count
  • Liver health
  • Kidney health
  • Cholesterol & Triglycerides
  • Diabetes marker
  • Inflammation marker
  • Key Nutrients: Vitamin D, Active B12, stored Iron, Folate and Magnesium.
  • Full Thyroid panel (including antibodies to identify if your body is mounting thyroid autoimmunity)

Hormones

Testing hormones is important when your condition and symptoms may be hormonally driven. If you have symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, overwhelm, irritability, low libido, weight gain, brain fog, temperature changes or you have a diagnosed hormonal condition such as PMS, PCOS or endometriosis then you may benefit from this state of the art urine test.

The test measures:

  • STRESS hormones - Cortisol and Cortisone
  • DHEA & Testosterone - your androgen hormones and their metabolites
  • Progesterone & metabolites
  • Oestrogen, Oestrone & Oestriol - your 3 Oestrogens, plus their metabolites
  • Neurotransmitters - Dopamine, Nor-Adrenaline, Melatonin
  • Key nutrients - B12, B6, Glutathione

Comprehensive gut test

A stool test is useful with any kind of digestive issues (IBS, constipation, diarrhoea, indigestion, bloating, cramps) but also for symptoms that may be caused by digestive imbalances (fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, joint pain, cravings, unexplained weight gain). 70-80% of your immune system is in your gut tissue, thyroid hormone is activated there and our happy hormone is made there. We need our gut to be working effectively for optimal health.

The test looks at:

  • Digestion and Absorption capability markers
  • Beneficial and harmful bacteria
  • Inflammation markers
  • Immune system markers
  • Yeast & Fungal markers
  • Parasites & Viruses

Genetic Testing

DNA testing is the ultimate in personalised nutrition allowing for a preventive and proactive approach to health and wellbeing. We are all genetically unique and DNA testing can highlight genetic predispositions and potential weaknesses in body function. Nutrigenomics allows for a unique gene-based nutrition plan, dietary goals for relevant nutrients and targeted nutritional supplement recommendations. A variety of testing is available including core nutrients, methylation, hormones, detoxification, nervous system and thyroid function.

For example, The nutrient core DNA report will highlight your unique DNA sequencing that will affect:

  • Food response - gluten, lactose, caffeine & microbiome diversity
  • Vitamin need - vitamins A, B9 (folate), B12, C, D, K & glutathione
  • Metabolism of sugar and fat, appetite, inflammation, blood pressure & circadian rhythm.

Corporate Talks / Retreat collaborations

I work with employers to optimise employee wellbeing, productivity and reduce absenteeism due to poor mental or physical health.

Contact me to find out more about a bespoke programme of talks that will work alongside your company’s health promotion strategy.

These can be in person or via zoom.

I also work with yoga teachers, personal trainers and life coaches offering nutrition talks and consultations to fit in with the theme of the retreat.

If you are a fellow wellness professional, contact me to find out more about collaborating together

Testimonials

"I have an autoimmune diagnosis and felt like my symptoms are worsening despite the medication I was taking. I’ve decided to see Eva, who advised me on various dietary and lifestyle factors which could be contributing to my worsening symptoms. It was so interesting to lean a huge role digestion play in Autoimmune disease. Eva provided me with in-depth report outlining every aspect in detail. I feel since my gut and digestive health ‘work’ more efficiently, my autoimmune symptoms are diminishing. I feel hopeful that my symptoms will improve even further and highly recommend Eva to anyone with autoimmunity."

S.A. – London

"I have suffered with Acid Reflux/ Heartburn for several years now and often took over the counter medication ( PPIs). As I have got older these symptoms have occurred more frequently. I was reluctant to see my GP as I felt he might well suggest that I take prescribed PPIs on a regular basis. I felt that I had become more intolerant to certain foods as I got older and decided to seek advice regarding my diet. I had a consultation with Eva who discussed my diet and lifestyle and advised several dietary changes for me to consider. Having followed Eva's advice, I have gradually made changes to my diet, particularly regarding dairy products and have not experienced any Reflux or Heartburn symptoms for months. I wish that I had sought her advice sooner and have every confidence in her."

    While women of reproductive age are increasingly engaging in various physical and athletic activities, it is rarely acknowledged that their menstrual cycle may affect their bodily systems in terms of food cravings, energy intake and physical activity itself.

    As a woman has 450 menstrual cycles on average over her lifetime, nutritionists, other health professionals, coaches and female athletes themselves must consider the cyclic hormone impact on other bodily systems besides reproduction….
