Nutrition
I’m Dr Nina, a doctor in organic chemistry and a qualified pharmacist who teaches people how to harness healing properties in food and lifestyle habits. When my own health suffered, I did a deep dive into the science of nutrition and discovered the best medicine is in the foods we eat.
I’ve improved my symptoms this way, and I’m on a mission to help others create their own medicine for a more healthy and vibrant life.
I’m passionate about the science of nutrition and how to apply it to everyday life.
I’ve always had a passion for science and how certain compounds affect the human body, first qualifying in pharmacy, and then getting my PhD in Organic Chemistry (hence the ‘Dr.’ in my title).
Being a scientist, I was determined to find more answers and started to do my own research and realised that nutritional therapy was the foundation I really needed to heal.
I’m committed to keep researching and finding scientific answers about how to properly heal, using natural foods available to all of us, instead of medications that can often mask symptoms and also cause side effects.
My Approach
I believe healing can be found in natural solutions, but always take a scientific approach to investigating the underlying causes of symptoms.
Through my own journey, I’ve learned an enormous amount, and slowly have found out ways to change my diet and lifestyle, and what works for me in order to not slip back into being bedridden most days.
After a lot of investigations, I now know what works for me and know this level of research is important to find personal, natural and safe solutions for people. For example, I can nip a migraine in the bud using Epsom salt baths and an espresso instead of relying on heavy medications that often come with side effects.
From experience, I know that your supermarket is your pharmacy, your kitchen is your lab, and you can learn to be your own scientist and harness the healing power of food. I can help you create the best medicine for a strong, radiant, empowered you!
Testimonials

Dr Nina’s knowledge is second to none.
I suffer from CFS and am often suspicious of new health fads. Nina’s scientific knowledge helped convince me to make simple changes that had a big effect on my health. She’s a serious scientist but her warm and relaxed demeanor made working with her quite fun. I felt safe and supported by her and my health has improved because of the work we did.
