I’ve always had an interest in nutrition and the effects of food on the body. Even more so given I suffer with bloating and discomfort, hives, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, asthma, brain fog and poor mental clarity.
I have a young family and a family history of heart problems. I was aware that my current lifestyle meant that my life may be cut significantly short if I didn’t make a change, and I wanted to be around for my son for as long as possible.
The Challenge
Shortly before meeting with Natasha I had an Asthma review with my GP and was told that my blood pressure was dangerously high. I was advised to see a cardiologist but there was an 8 month wait, which was too long, so I decided to look at helping myself. I also had severe stomach issues that weren’t going away, so something had to give.
My friend recommended Natasha to me, so I decided to bite the bullet and book the appointment. I suffer with OCD and I tend to not like a lot of people but I liked Natasha from the first consultation as she was a bit like me and was honest!
The Solution
Natasha listened to me and made no judgements, and she immediately had a recommendation to fix my issues.
We discussed my goal and full history including any hurdles we may face along the way. Natasha recommended an 8 week plan to look at the alignment of my current food intake against my actual needs, to see where I was going wrong.
We met every other week, and throughout the programme I’ve learnt so much about my body, my nutrient deficiencies and how to maintain a healthy lifestyle to ensure I do not backtrack.
The Results
Over the 8 sessions, I’ve lost over three and half stone and reduced my waist size from a size 42 to a 36 inch waist. I’m now wearing trousers from 12 years ago, it’s insane
My Blood pressure and Cholesterol have come down too which has added years to my life, I’m sure.
My tummy has calmed down a lot now and my asthma and skin condition have improved. On top of that I now have better mental clarity and I’m less angry which helps my family life immensely. I’m just happier in myself!
My life has changed dramatically and I even have my own allotment now. I’m forever grateful to Natasha for the advice and support given. Best money I ever spent!!!
