About

I am a 45-year-old French clinical nutritionist with a Bachelor of Health Science from Australia.

Background:

Before starting a new career in nutrition, I lived in the fast lane of fashion magazines and freelance styling. However, after having a child on the autism spectrum and personally experiencing multiple autoimmune diseases that conventional medicine could only manage via a lifetime of medication, rather than being healed, my interest shifted from fashion to health. Thanks to dietary changes, I was able to help significantly reduce the severity of my child’s autism, reverse two of my conditions and enter remission for the third. This led me to seek a formal education in nutrition to further my knowledge and give me the tools to help others and their health journey.

I know how it feels:

·       To be so exhausted at night, that moving from the sofa to bed seems an impossible task to overcome.

·       Shifting from struggling to keep my eyes open all day to suddenly being all bushy tail and bright eye from 10pm to 2am.

·       To wake up in bed drenched in sweat and suffer from debilitating brain fog at a time when I was nowhere near menopause or peri-menopause, as confirmed by gynaecologists and endocrinologists, who were unable to provide me with an alternative explanation.

·       To be in a hormonal roller coaster so extreme that I had to have 3 different bra cup sizes depending on the time of the month.

·       To suffer from olfactive sensitivity so severe that a MRI was ordered.

·       To be reduced to only eating 3 singular plain food to avoid excruciating pain and bloating.

·       To be bloated to a point of being congratulated for being pregnant.

·       To suffer from hyper and hypopigmentation all at once. Yes, it is possible!

·       To have a mystery illness that no-one knew what it was, let alone treat!

·       To feel like you are slowly dying while technically in the prime of your life…

If this resonates with you, reach out so that I can book you in, as I know I can help turning it all around for you as I have done it for myself.

What makes me really excited in the medical field today:

·       The realisation and recognition by scientists, specialists and GPs that the exponential rise of chronic diseases faced by the population today is due to environmental causes and a large part of this due to nutrition.

·       The new science of epigenetic which debunked the myth that “bad” genes was the cause of cancers and chronic diseases when in reality, genes you are born with are only responsible for 5%-10% of cancers and 20% of chronic diseases. Therefore, most of the time, causes of those diseases are not from our inherited genes but what we expose our genes to via toxins inhalation, consummation and skin absorption.

  • The power of food.

    The science of Epigenetics (what expresses genes i.e. what causes the genes to be switch on or off).

    The science of Nutrigenomics (how food expresses genes).

  • Doctors, dietitians, naturopaths, nutritionists and health coaches that:

    ·       Uses “stress” to explain all your symptoms and conditions. This is gaslighting. It is a very convenient way to hide when one does not have an answer. It is in fact ok for any practitioner, not to know. It also allows to shift responsibility from the practitioner when the treatment is not working to the patient. It makes you solely responsible for “creating” your disease and for not healing because you can not control your stress.

    ·       Recommends salmon as part of a Mediterranean diet when there is no salmon in the Mediterranean Sea. There is, however, anti-inflammatory small oily fish such as sardines and anchovies which unlike salmon are not over polluted.

    ·       Still recommends eating salmon when most salmon are farmed and therefore from very heavily polluted waters, fed on heavily processed pellets and antibiotics while “wild salmon” often referrers to salmon that grew up in farms before being released in the ocean to be captured as “wild”.

    ·       Still recommends tuna as a great lean protein when we have known for a very long time that tuna is very polluted in mercury, a neurotoxin which can cause cognitive impairment, behavioural and emotional issues, anxiety as well as being linked to ADHD and autism.

    ·       Still recommends fish oil supplements for their anti-inflammatory properties without making sure heavy metals are screen for and removed or checking that the Total Oxidation Value (TOTOX) is disclosed. TOTOX is used to measure oxidation level, as both heavy metals and oxidised oils are highly inflammatory.  

  • ·       Australian brands calling their yogurt “Greek” or “Greek style” when their yogurt is not made of sheep or goat milk, as it is should be, but cow, and once again, sold as part of an anti-inflammatory Mediterranean diet, when cow dairy is not part of a Mediterranean diet and is pro-inflammatory due to its content in A1 proteins. On the other hand, goat and sheep dairy are part of the Mediterranean diet and contains only A2 proteins which are anti-inflammatory. Additionally, goat and sheep dairy contain a much better phosphorus to calcium ratio supporting of bone health while cow’s dairy, due to its poor calcium to phosphorus ratio, has been linked to osteoporosis.
