Helen Buchan
NUTRITIONAL THERAPIST
Having had two children within the space of two years I found myself aged 30 feeling very tired and run down! I developed a bad case of adult acne for which my GP prescribed the antibiotic Tetracycline which made some but not much difference to my symptoms. I continued to take the Tetracycline but my general health and wellbeing declined dramatically, I felt like I was on a downward spiral and I was suffering from bouts of depression too.
It was one of the things which eventually lead me towards taking a degree in Nutritional Therapy and learning so much more about how diet can affect our health and wellbeing. As a Nutritional Therapist we look for the root causes of people’s health problems. If you can find the underlying cause of symptoms and treat the source it is a far more effective and safer way of looking after our health than using drugs, and diet often had a large part to play here. Drugs tend to treat symptoms but not the cause and they often come with nasty side effects which are then treated with more drugs. It can becomes a viscous circle which is difficult to break free from and an ever downward spiral from a health point of view.
Session description:
At Zing Nutrition I work with clients with a wide range of health issues many of whom are stressed, over weight and lacking in energy, who would like to restore their health and regain their vigour naturally through good nutrition! This can be achieved through providing the right food and nutrients to meet the demands of work and family life as well as addressing nutritional imbalances and health issues which may be acting as a block to energy and vitality. As a result of a very targeted approach to nutrition my clients feel healthier and more energised!
