Holistic Nutritional Advice
Balanced • Personalised • Evidence-Informed
What Is Holistic Nutritional Advice?
Holistic Nutritional Advice is a personalised, whole-person approach to eating that supports your health, energy, digestion, and long-term wellbeing. Rather than focusing on calorie counting, rigid rules, or short-term diets, this approach looks at how food, lifestyle, emotions, and daily habits interact to influence how you feel in your body.
In today’s busy world, many people experience digestive discomfort, fatigue, hormonal imbalance, stress-related symptoms, or chronic health issues without clear guidance on how nutrition can support healing. Holistic nutritional advice helps you reconnect with food as nourishment — not restriction — and develop sustainable eating habits that support both physical and emotional balance.
Drawing from Western nutritional science and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), consultations are tailored to your unique constitution, health history, lifestyle, and goals. The focus is on practical, achievable changes that fit into real life and support lasting improvement.
How Does It Work?
Before the consultation, you will be asked to prepare a 7-day food diary and provide a list of any existing health conditions and medications or supplements you are currently taking. This information allows me to gain a clear understanding of your eating patterns, lifestyle, and overall health before we meet.
During the consultation, we explore your health history in depth, including current symptoms, digestion, energy levels, sleep, stress, and your relationship with food. From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, we also consider patterns such as temperature sensitivity, emotional wellbeing, and how your body responds to different foods and daily habits.
Using this combined information, you receive clear, personalised nutritional guidance rather than generic meal plans. Recommendations may include:
Adjusting food choices to better support digestion, hormones, or energy
Improving meal timing and eating habits
Supporting gut health and the nervous system
Using food therapeutically to reduce inflammation or chronic symptoms
Simple lifestyle adjustments that enhance the effectiveness of nutritional changes
The aim is to support your body in regaining balance and resilience, helping it function more efficiently and comfortably over time through sustainable, realistic changes.

Holistic Nutritional Advice – FAQs
1.Is this a weight-loss programme?
This is not a weight-loss programme in the traditional sense. While some people come specifically with weight-loss goals and experience weight changes over time, the focus is on improving health, digestion, metabolism, energy, and overall balance rather than calorie counting or restrictive dieting. Weight regulation is approached as a by-product of restoring balance in the body, not the primary target.
2. Do I need to follow a strict meal plan?
No. Guidance is flexible and personalised. The aim is to help you make informed choices that fit your lifestyle, preferences, and cultural background.
3. Is this based on Western nutrition or TCM?
It combines both. Recommendations are informed by Western nutritional science and Traditional Chinese Medicine principles, offering a balanced and integrative approach.
4. How many sessions will I need?
This depends on your goals and health concerns. Some people benefit from a few sessions, while others prefer ongoing support over several months.
