Hi! I'm Charlotte, Registered Dietitian, gut health specialist nutritionist.
In my late teens to early twenties, I was fed up with feeling bloated, lethargic and bunged up. It took many trips to the GP to even get heard and often the default was "We have prescribed this course of tablets" which may solve the short-term symptoms but not the long-term problem.
​
After several trips over many years...enough was enough, I embarked on my nutrition career and finally got the answers I needed to help my gut health.
​
