Hi, I’m Lina. A true lover of fruits and vegetables since childhood. Born and raised in Cyprus, I was brought up surrounded by fruit and nut trees, along with organic herb and vegetable gardens. The shock came when I moved to England in 1998 to find a very different situation with the quality of produce, as well as the high consumption of ultra-processed food.
Having worked as a podiatrist in primary care for 17 years-with mostly lifestyle diseases- I felt that a lot of these health issues could be avoided if we nourished ourselves better as a nation.
I retrained as a nutritionist in 2016 to help inspire people to take control of their health; to feel optimal, energised and thriving- just as we are all meant to be.
These are some of my favourite quotes when it comes to health and food- all by Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine:
"Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food".
"All disease begins in the gut".
"Leave your drugs in the chemist's post if you can heal the patient with food".
Book to work with me if you want to reduce/remove medications from your life and replace those with health-giving medicinal food compounds instead.
