Sometimes nutrition specific laboratory tests are a fantastic tool for getting to the root of unanswered symptoms such as fatigue, unexplained infertility, difficulty losing weight.

I have carefully chosen accredited laboratories in Ireland and the UK that are of the highest standard and scientifically based. Once the test results have been received and interpreted, I can then create a tailored program aimed at improving your symptoms. No two persons biochemistry is the same so why should you be given the same advice as the next person?
