Nina 2013
I was feeling extremely ill after eating and occasionally had such severe stomach spasms that I would cry with the pain. I was struggling with all aspects of my diet, both liquid and solid food.
I now know what foods don’t agree with me and what foods I can no longer to eat. The supplements have really helped regulate my digestion so now I no longer feel ill or vomit as a result of the change in my diet.
I can eat a small plate of food and feel full as I am eating the correct number of meals and snacks every day. Also I have lost 12 lbs since I started 4 weeks ago.
I particularly enjoyed learning how to structure a balanced diet plan that suits me, cooking all the lovely recipes that I have received and of course losing the weight.
I would highly recommend to anyone who feels sick after food or may think some foods don’t agree with them to attend Catherine and learn the right foods for them and how best to have a balanced diet.
Nina 2013, May, 2013My 9 year old son, Roan was sick for 8 weeks before we visited Nutrition Works. For a period of 3 weeks he was at the doctor’s 6 times and in A+E twice. He was first diagnosed with a viral infection and was suffering with vomiting and diarrohea. A week later he was told he had a bacterial infection and a urinary tract infection. After a further week of sickness and 2 visits to A+E to rule out appendix he got an x-ray and we discovered that he was suffering from chronic constipation. He was given medication to clear the bowel but as the weeks continued he still was suffering from bad stomach pain at night and was very bloated.
Following our consultation with Catherine we learned that Roan has a strong intolerance to cow’s milk and a medium intolerance to eggs and peanuts. On Catherine’s advice we removed these from his diet and in 24 hours his belly pain and bloating went away. He is happily using goat’s milk and goat’s cheese and has improved immensely. His energy levels have increased, he is sleeping much better and he has no bowel problems or pains whatsoever.
Catherine was also really helpful with suggesting alternatives and as a result there have been no real challenges or difficulties for Roan in changing his diet.
We would highly recommend Catherine as a Nutritionist. The information and blood test results have brought such positive developments for Roan. As well as carrying out a very professional consultation Catherine is very sensitive to the client’s needs and doesn’t judge the individual in a negative way. As a Mum I sometimes find that medical professionals can sometimes make parents feel “guilty” about their child’s bad health. A Doctor said to us “What does he have for breakfast? Coco Pops?” when I asked why Roan was constipated. We never had a box of Coco Pops in our house and I was so insulted as we were giving him healthy food but now we learned from Catherine that he was intolerant to milk and eggs so it wasn’t from being a “bad parent” that my child was sick. We had a long 8 weeks when he was sick and we got no satisfaction or solutions until we visited Catherine.It has been so refreshing and positive to have met with Catherine and we are so grateful that we met her.
In the words of 9 year old Roan “Give her 5 stars,Mam!” !!
Yvonne 2013, April, 2013Catherine came to my rescue. My son was 14 months old and myself and my husband were at the end of our tether. He cried constantly and of course always got worse at night-time so we were up for most of it. I had gone to GPs and even paediatricians and was basically told there was nothing wrong with him.
While this was comforting it didn’t help us. I went for an allergy test with Catherine and gluten showed up. We have changed his diet and he is now 19 months and we don’t know ourselves. He is a different child.
He is now happy and contented and he is sleeping the night (most importantly). Catherine was very helpful to us, not only by doing the test, but I was able to e-mail her or call her with any questions I had and she always responded to me. It was great to know that finally somebody listened to me and I didn’t feel like a neurotic mother anymore.
Thanks again Catherine
EM 2012, November, 2012I wish to thank you and acknowledge the enormous help you gave me through a special diet regime and supplements tapered to my needs to combat my symptoms with Candida Albicans.
The abstinence of yeast in my diet really got rid of my bloated feeling and also enabled me to lose weight naturally.
I liked the fact that you also took into account my other health issues before prescribing for me. I feel so much better and energized and will continue to check in with you in the future.
