About Me
Hi, I'm Lee; I am an Accredited University Qualified Nutritionist.
So why did I choose Nutrition?
About ten years ago, I became really sick, and it crippled my life. I couldn't attend work, socialise or live any part of my everyday lifestyle. After seeing numerous specialists who had no answers, I decided the only person who would help me was myself. I was my best advocate. I started changing what I ate to rebuild my body from the inside out. From this, I realised the importance of knowing what we put into our bodies, thus setting myself on the path to becoming a nutritionist. So, I returned to University to complete my Bachelor's degree in Nutrition.
Along the way, my passion for food as medicine was really ignited. Through my university studies and experiences, I can see the potential that food and lifestyle impact our health and why it is so important but sometimes not rated highly in our lives. I also have a food intolerance, so I feel for those with either an intolerance or an allergy. I know the challenges that you face. My experience changed my life in many ways, and now, I am on a path to help others.
From this passion became Wellness By Nutrition. I wanted to have my own practice that helps clients discover a different outlook on food and their bodies in a way that educates them to lead a happier, healthier life. As to not let something like gut health rule their life, as it did mine for so long. I want to help you to reclaim your life by getting your health back on track.
