My Story

 

 

 

 

www.sheffieldintolerancetesting.com was established in 2008 to help people in sheffield and the yorkshire region whom have problems with food intolerances/allergies and nutrition. As an avid believer that everything happens for a reason, I decided to use my experiences to help others. 

My Story

After a month long stint in hospital in 2004 with a stomach bug, I started to realize that I was having difficulties with tolerating certain food groups. I started to eliminate the foods that I would normally eat on a daily basis.  I consulted my GP who said he could not help and was sure that there was nothing wrong with me.  I was at my wits end, I continuously felt ill whether suffering from sickness, nausea, bloating, constipation or diarrhea.  I began to dread eating, my social life went down ill and I found myself having to take more and more time off work. 

Despite what my Doctors were saying, I was still convinced that there was something wrong and so I went in search of an answer.  I researched long and hard day and night.  Whilst researching I learnt about more and more people in similar situations. I couldn't understand why people weren't finding help?, why help wasn't easy to find? and why were we having to suffer?. 

I began to hear more and more about food intolerance/ allergy tests.  I didn't know where I could get one done, but I luckily stumbled across an advert offering the service at my local gym.  A nutritionist was offering Food Intolerance/Allergy Testing.  I quickly booked my appointment and to my astonishment the foods that I had already started to eliminate came up on my results. I was overjoyed and glad to know what was causing my issues.                                                  Just as I was getting to grips with things, I unfortunately fell ill again.  Over a period of two years, I found myself going in and out of hospital and due to the medication I was taking I found that my food situation worsened.  I was tested and was found to have traces of Coeliac Disease. My throat would become irritated if I ate wheat/gluten items, and I was having severe reactions to simple items such as fruits, vegetables, sugar, soya, potatoes, rice and dairy. 

My last relapse occurred in February 2008, I was determined not to be admitted into hospital again so I took some time off work and continued to focus on my nutrition.  As soon as I recovered I started to train as a Nutritionist and Food Intolerance/Allergy tester.  

My only goal was to help people and limit the suffering that they may feel where possible.  I carried out my training at The College of Holistic Health and Nutrition based in Surrey.  I continue to study and learn everyday through further training and my own life experiences.  I hope that with my experience and knowledge I can help other people and ultimately make their lives easier. 

My belief is that with the right nutrition and knowledge our bodies can be healed.  We can truly take control and heal ourselves.  At 'www.sheffieldintolerancetesting.com' everyone is treated as an individual.  Together we can find the answers. 

'www.sheffieldintolerancetesting.com' is a working progress so watch this space, plenty more to come (est. 2008).
