Brief Bio

I am a nutritionist and naturopath with over 14 years of clinical experience, specialising in Long COVID and chronic illnesses. My approach integrates personalised nutrition, gut restoration, and circadian retraining to optimise health outcomes. Since April 2020, I have been dedicated to supporting patients with Long COVID, offering tailored interventions to aid their recovery journey.

In addition to my clinical practice, I serve on the scientific advisory boards for The Long Covid-19 Foundation and SpinQ BioPhysics Inc., and hold the position of Head of Nutrition for Tolerance. These roles enable me to contribute to the broader scientific community and stay abreast of emerging research in the field.

Through my work, I aim to empower individuals to take control of their health by providing them with the knowledge and tools necessary for sustainable well-being.

My Story

In my pursuit of advancing understanding in this field, I have conducted intensive research leading to the development of the “Long COVID Microbiome Phenotype,” providing novel insights into the gut’s role in Long COVID.

As the founder of BeNourishedUK, I am committed to delivering simple and effective strategies for individuals experiencing chronic health conditions.
