Welcome to Helen Claire Nutrition

Hello I’m Helen. 

I enjoy the simple things in life such as home cooking, being in nature, spending time with family and friends. I also help run our small family business and have many years experience in food preparation.  My passion for Nutritional Therapy started after a road to recovery from a serious illness and years of IBS symptoms that I thought were part of normal life. After transforming my life through nutrition and lifestyle changes I then decided to train with highly renowned Institute for Optimum Nutrition (ION) for 4 years to gain my qualification in Nutritional Therapy. Through knowledge gained and experience I have now developed a keen interest in gut health and have decided to focus my practice on IBS and other digestive disorders.

 Nutritional Therapy is not a DIET as such it is about making nutrition and lifestyle changes which are unique and sustainable for you. Firstly it is about getting to know you through filling in a health questionnaire and food diary followed by working together during consultations. I will  work to find out any underlying imbalances that are contributing to your symptoms which is backed up by scientific research. Tests are often recommended through your GP or reputable testing companies. I work on the principle of adding foods in to the diet to nourish the body whilst recognising that our body may be reacting to certain foods. We will then work together to collaborate a plan for you to take home.

Nutritional therapy is not a replacement for services in the medical profession and will often work along side GP's to support dietary and lifestyle changes as client safety is the first priority.  Also, I am not permitted or trained to deal with certain conditions such as eating disorders which will be determined during the initial chat and health questionnaire.

Nutritional Therapy could help give you the tools to support you in reaching optimal health for you. This will involve commitment to gradually make simple changes to your diet and lifestyle which could help relieve gut symptoms such as diarrhoea, constipation and bloating. Allowing you to live a more normal life again with less anxiety and reap the rewards of living a healthier, happier lifestyle.
