My interest in health & nutrition began at 17 when I stopped eating meat.
I had no idea about the connection between nutrient rich food & health.
At 20, someone noticed I had a large goitre and at the same time someone else put 'Let's Eat Right To Keep Fit' by Adelle Davis into my hands.
I was overweight & low in energy. I read the book, changed my eating and in 2 weeks, the goitre was half the size, and over months, practically disappeared.
I've been a teacher of adults for 20 years, - Public Speaking, Stress Management, Time management, Possibility thinking, Women getting back to work & ELT for five years.
I'm passionate about wellbeing of people and planet.
