23% of life is spent in ill health and we are on a mission to improve that. There is no one way to fix everybody, we are all different and the genes that have evolved to give us an advantage in our environment are a hazard with globalisation. The bugs that live in our gut vary enormously even between twins and the food that we eat has become highly processed and poor quality.

There are both high tech and low tech solutions to understanding your body and optimising your health but there is no doubt that nutrition, movement/ exercise, stress management and community is key to good health.

When it comes to nutrition many arguments range on however there is a consensus that the plant based diet is the key to good health, we look at the science and introduce some of the concepts of functional medicine.
