Metabolic health

The 3pm wall, the cravings, the bloods your GP flagged — these are signals, not character flaws. Whether it's insulin resistance, PCOS, the shifts of peri/menopause, or rising cholesterol, food is one of your most powerful levers. I translate your numbers into a realistic plan, working alongside your doctor — never replacing them. The aim is steadier energy and better markers, not a number on the scale.

Is this you?

I help with…

  • Energy crashes and the 3pm wall

  • Cravings and blood-sugar swings

  • Insulin resistance or a prediabetes flag

  • PCOS

  • The peri/menopause transition

  • High cholesterol flagged in your bloods

If your main goal is fat loss rather than steadier markers, the weight-loss lane may suit you better.

My approach

Steadying the system

Same idea across every area: read the signals, work with your physiology, and change the few things that actually move your numbers — without the extremes.

  • Steady blood sugar, fewer crashes

    Spikes and crashes drive the cravings and the energy dips. Building meals around protein, fibre and healthy fats keeps blood sugar steadier; gentle movement — even a short walk after eating — helps your body clear glucose; and sleep and stress matter more than most people are told. No detoxes, no extremes — just real food that works with your physiology.

  • PCOS — working with your insulin, not against it

    Insulin resistance sits at the centre of PCOS for most women, which is why nutrition and activity are recognised as the cornerstone of managing it. We focus on a balanced, lower-glycaemic-load way of eating, protein at meals and steady movement to improve insulin sensitivity — and, where the evidence supports it for you, we'll talk through options like inositol. Always alongside your GP or gynaecologist.

  • The menopause transition — what really changes

    Here's the honest physiology: your resting metabolism doesn't suddenly collapse at menopause. What does change is the hormonal terrain — falling oestrogen nudges insulin sensitivity in the wrong direction, shifts where you store fat (more around the middle), and accelerates the loss of muscle and bone. That's exactly why the old approaches stop working, and why the answer isn't a harder diet — it's protecting muscle and bone (enough protein, strength work) and steadying blood sugar.

  • High cholesterol — the eggs myth, and what actually helps

    What the evidence actually says: saturated fat — not dietary cholesterol — is the bigger driver of your LDL, so you don't need to fear eggs the way you were once told. What genuinely helps is more soluble fibre (oats, beans, fruit, vegetables), swapping saturated for unsaturated fats, and a whole-food pattern — built into meals you'll actually eat, alongside any treatment your doctor prescribes.

Where I fit

I interpret the bloods you already have and work with your GP — I don't diagnose or prescribe.

Your medical care leads; the nutrition runs alongside it. Where it helps, and with your consent, I'll keep your doctor in the loop — so the food side and the medical side are working from the same page.

Do I have to give up eggs for high cholesterol?
No — saturated fat matters more for your LDL than dietary cholesterol. We focus on soluble fibre and the fat swaps that genuinely move the needle.
Did my metabolism crash at menopause?
Not in the way you've been told — research shows resting metabolism stays fairly steady through midlife. What changes is your hormones, muscle and bone, which is exactly what we work with.
Can you help with PCOS?
Yes — nutrition and activity are the cornerstone of managing PCOS, mainly by improving insulin sensitivity. We do that alongside your medical care.
Is this a diagnosis or treatment?
No — it's nutrition support alongside your GP. I can interpret the bloods you already have, but I don't diagnose or prescribe.
Do I need a blood test first?
It helps if you have recent results, but it isn't essential to begin. We can start with where you are and fold in your numbers when you have them.
