About Me
Hi, I’m Elly — a university qualified nutritionist.
Inspired by my family’s journey with coeliac disease and food sensitivities, I love helping people of all ages navigate life with these conditions. I also have a special interest in the management of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), food allergies, eosinophilic esophagitis (EOE), polycystic ovary syndrome (POCS), constipation, diarrhea, fussy eating and avoidant/restrictive food disorder (ARFID).
I enjoy working with clients who are looking to improve their diet or address nutrition-related health concerns, such as pre-diabetes or high blood pressure and cholesterol.
If you’ve been thinking about making positive changes to your diet or wondering if adjusting your eating habits could help with a specific condition or life stage, take that first step and get in touch.
Hear from some of my happy clients.
It took me a while to get on top of the whole food trial thing with my son — Elly was incredible. I'm so grateful for the advice I received on how to actually live this, how to feed my son and how to shop safely for him. Elly deserves a lot of the credit for my son’s new-found health. He has normal bowel motions, he’s energetic, has great skin, pink cheeks and his asthma is so much better. Mary
I've been a coeliac for 20 years and can't believe Elly had more to teach me about reading food labels. I no longer have to memorise food additive numbers. To think there are gluten free foods I've been missing out on all these years! I highly recommend the 'Is it gluten free?' online label-reading course to all coeliacs.
