Hi, I’m leisha
Nutrition information is constantly changing
There is such a fog when it comes to nutrition information because nutrition science and requirements are very personalised. Humans are not static individuals that never change - we are constantly changing and our needs and circumstances change with us.
There are some fundamental elements that are the same, but for the most part, we are so unique and need to be treated accordingly.
I believe education is empowerment and that understanding what is happening for each individual client and sharing that information with them is important for a healthy life.
I utilise various testing and thorough case history notes when developing recommendations for patients, which are mostly diet driven with some evidence-based supplement recommendations when necessary. I only prescribe top quality supplements on a personalised basis only - I refuse to promote supplements or supplement programs from any company as this is not inline with my practice.
I also welcome working alongside other healthcare practitioners - in fact, I think this is the way to get the best health outcomes for any client.
ALLERGY AND IMMUNITY
I specialise in allergic and immune mediated conditions.
Allergic, low immune and autoimmune conditions are becoming more and more prevalent in society. With the nature of our current lifestyles combined with our environment and genetics, some of us become more susceptible to allergic and immunological conditions.
Allergic and autoimmune conditions affect the everyday lives of those that have them and effective management of these conditions can be tricky. The multifactorial nature of allergy and autoimmunity makes these complex conditions and it can be tricky to find the right strategies to manage them.
Diet and lifestyle changes can be very effective ways to help alleviate symptoms of allergy and autoimmunity. Exploring therapeutic nutritional treatments can often yield answers to questions long left unanswered.
Being an allergic and autoimmune type myself, I understand on a personal level the daily struggles of dealing with these conditions. I want to help you find your balance.
Options
Deciding what is best for you (and where to invest your money!) is tough when it comes to health and nutrition. But I can absolutely say that understanding how your body works is the first step to making epic choices.
