CATRIONA LEEN, Dip NT, mNTOI, Nutritional therapist.
My interest in nutrition started after years of struggling with my own health issues including poor digestion, hormonal imbalance, endometriosis and fatigue. Conventional medicine did not provide relief which prompted me to find alternative ways to address my health issues. Along the way I found nutritional therapy which transformed my life and my understanding of health, food and lifestyle. Nutrition has had a profound effect on my life.
I became extremely passionate about the science and healing powers of foods and nutrients and the tremendous impact that lifestyle has on our health outcomes and more importantly the quality of that health.
I went on to study Naturopathic nutrition with the college of naturopathic medicine. I trained for three years which included 200 hours of supervised clinic hours..
I have a special interest in the area of using food and nutrition to improve natural fertility, prepare for IVF, balance hormones. My other areas of interest include functional testing particularly DNA testing.
