“I have long standing IBS and although this has not been “cured” (I did not expect it to be), the suggestions made in the consultation and report have been really helpful and lessened the symptoms. Many thanks, Jean!” DOH, North Yorkshire

” Jean was easy to talk to and I felt confident with her support. She advised on exactly what I wanted help with.” SL, Halifax

” I am so glad I consulted Jean. My Doctor had recommended the low-fodmap diet as I had
developed IBS during the pandemic and become sensitive to many foods. Jean clarified that the low-fodmap diet is not first line advice and there were many easier steps to try first, for example, balancing out the size of the meals I ate throughout the day. This has worked really well and helped me to avoid a much more restrictive diet. Thanks Jean! ” SC, Lancaster

” Quite often you are unaware of how little things can impact your life, and even small choices to diet or lifestyle can affect you. By having someone talk through the choices you are making, and the external impacts upon your wellbeing, can make all the difference. Empowering yourself to take control of your own health and happiness, having dietary assessment is often key to the first step in the journey ” SCS, Carlisle

” I had lost my way trying to research what might help the 3 separate digestive issues I had been experiencing for some years. Jean’s knowledge and expertise helped me to identify what should be prioritised. Jean is a professional with a warm and friendly manner who also helped me to understand other aspects of my lifestyle apart from food that were contributing to the symptoms plus ‘time of life’ issues that I should discuss with my GP. Thank you, Jean! ” RP, Leeds

“I suffered from a bout of acute pancreatitis, and prior to the illness my diet was acceptable, however not perfect!  I started to feel down following the attack, and opted for junk food as a comfort. I knew this had to stop, I called Jean who was very accommodating on the phone to my appointment times. I visited Jean, and the advice she gave me was clear, and very informative.  More importantly she gave me confidence about my general lifestyle. A very Happy/healthy young man (maybe not so young now!)”.  GJ, Halifax
