where good health begins
*what is a METABOLOME ?
We all have a giant filter in our body that filters approximately half a cup of blood every minute - that's our kidneys - the resulting small molecules or metabolites tell us an awful lot about you - your nutrition, lifestyle, environment, physical activity, sleep, brain health and much more.
Your UNIQUE metabolic system or METABOLOME tells us so much about your underlying health issues that we can steer you to fix them.
* what is FUNCTIONAL NUTRITION?
As Functional Nutritionists we can help you to understand what goes in one end, comes out the other end and the impact of all of that in the middle bit (all 8.5 metres of it)....that is the (not so) small intestines, large intestines and the way that everything actually links together.
We don't separate the body into different 'ologies' (like gastroenterology) as we don't see how they can be separated as they are all connected. So it's not really 'what you eat' more 'what your body can do with what you eat'.
We work on the premise that GUT health is the vital KEY to healing chronic illness.
Fascinating, hey!
How does your 3- step Process work?
In just 3 steps we can help you feel significantly better.
We look at your unique Metabolome* and apply our Functional Nutrition* knowledge to help you recover
1️⃣ Initial consultation ➕ health history
2️⃣ Organic Acid Test (through urine)
3️⃣ Second consultation ➕ results ➕ action/recommendations
Do I have to use your 3-step bundle?
No - you don't
During our initial free 15 minute consultation we will recommend whether it would be more beneficial to start with a different test.
However most of our patients find that the Organic Acid Test is the most effective screening test and this bundle is the most cost effective way to pair the test with the minimum two part consultation.
What is the minimum consultation cost?
Our minimum investment is a two-part consultation, designed to ensure we fully understand your health picture before making any recommendations. This includes:
- A 60-minute initial consultation to take a comprehensive health history
- A 60-minute follow-up consultation to review findings and agree next steps
We place great importance on taking a thorough health history, as it often reveals key patterns and contributors to ongoing symptoms. This process forms the foundation of a successful and personalised programme, ensuring your care is thoughtful, targeted, and appropriate from the outset.
Is Gut HQ the right fit for me?
We may not be right for you if:
- You’re looking for a quick fix or single supplement
- You want medication-only treatment
- You’re not ready to make changes to diet or lifestyle
