Yummy Chocolate Cake!!!

As a health practitioner I take my role very seriously in guiding you to make a full recovery.

Often your road to recovery will include dietary changes.

Studies show that changing your eating habits can be very confronting and tough at times, especially when your body is inflamed.

The times in my life when I’ve had to change my eating habits because i was suffering with chronic illness. I’ve found it hard to stick with it, because the food was tasteless.

So you don’t have to struggle, I’m sharing my secrets with you, my easy yummy recipes that anyone can make. These are the very same recipes I share in my clinic with my patients to help reduce the inflammation and pain in their bodies so they have a faster recovery.

Plus, these recipes are tried and tested in my own kitchen, and if you could see me in my kitchen (Nigella I am NOT!)  you’d understand that recipes have to be simple, easy to make AND taste good! You’ll find each recipe will help your body in some way, no matter if your illness is simple or complex. It’s my gift to you to help you on your healing journey.

When you make this, take a pic then pop on over to our Facebook page I’d love to see your version (or creation)!
