Anybody can have food intolerances from breast feeding babies to kids through to adults, young and older. Foods can cause so many different symptoms depending on your particular sensitivity.
A thorough nutritional assessment can help expose what food intolerance issues may be causing your individual symptoms and importantly how to replace lost nutrients from any food group eliminated.

My Story
I chose to specialise in Food Intolerances because I find it incredible that changing what we eat can potentially manage a range of issues such as gut symptoms, eczema, rashes, mood changes, behavioural issues in children and even sleep issues in babies.
Food intolerance requires a thorough knowledge of the different components in the diet, be it FODMAPs or food proteins such as cow's milk protein and food chemicals such as salicylates and amines/histamines.
The end result is that you get to learn so much more about which different foods may affect you, your child or baby and manage these issues through different food choices.
