Did you know that people with diabetes on average, have to make 80 more decisions per day than people without diabetes.

People with diabetes are also twice as likely to develop depression than people without diabetes.

Having to constantly make decisions about your diabetes management is exhausting.

My aim is to support you with your diet by providing clear and accurate nutritional counselling. I am a firm believer that for diabetes management, overall health and planetary health, plant-based eating is best and therefore my focus is on lowering blood glucose through plant-based eating. However, I am not just a dietitian, I am also a lifestyle medicine facilitator and therefore you can expect me to also support you with necessary lifestyle changes to help you manage your diabetes.

A bit more about me;

• I have been a dietitian for more than 20 years, specialising in diabetes for the last 15 years.

• Before I worked in diabetes, I worked in gastro and gained experience working with people with IBS and Coeliac Disease. I am a Kings College London, FODMAP trained dietitian, which is very useful as I get terrible IBS and most horrendous wind if I am not careful!

• I am a keen sports woman and used my spare time to gain a post-graduate certificate in sport and exercise nutrition. This has proved worthwhile when seeing athletes (recreational or more serious) with diabetes.

• I did further study in fertility, preconception and post-natal nutrition to support my clients with diabetes who are planning pregnancy.

• I have a MSc in clinical research.

• I am a guest lecturer at the University of East Anglia.

• I am a DAFNE, BERTIE and DESMOND trained dietitian

• I love working with people with diabetes. It is the one area in dietetics where I feel I can make a real difference in someone’s life through sharing my experience and knowledge and in the process help them achieve target blood sugar levels.
