Welcome to the News and Views section of the website. This page is dedicated to keeping you up-to-date with my work and all the latest in the field of Nutritional Therapy & Healthy Living.
I am pleased to announce that in addition to my regular nutrition clinic I am also teaching Pilates on a one-to-one basis. Nutrition is the cornerstone to good health but exercise is of equal importance. Pilates is a bodywork technique that can benefit everyone: young or old, already fit or out of shape. Even if you have never done any exercise before, Pilates can help restore your body to good health. The beauty of the technique is that it can be adapted to suit any body - literally. You don't have to be superfit or flexible to benefit from this superior form of exercise. Pilates balances the body so that all the muscles strengthen and work evenly. The benefits include a toned, lean physique and impeccable posture.
As a fully qualified Alan Herdman Pilates Instructor I give lessons in either the comfort of your own home, or in a fully equipped studio. The benefits of studio work include the use of top-of-the-range Pilates equipment including Reformers and Trapeze Tables. Home-based lessons involve the very latest in matwork exercise techniques. For more information you can contact me on 07745 578 347.

So many health problems today can be blamed on the 'refined' foods that have entered the human diet. This article looks at the modern production of bread and how this once-healthy food has been transformed into a product with little nutritional benefit.

Read my quote on the latest hot health topic: Child Obesity. This condition currently costs the NHS around £500 million a year. The UK government estimate that 1 in 5 men and a quarter of women are obese. It is expected that 3 quarters of the population will suffer from this problem within the next 10 to 15 years, if nothing is done to prevent it.
