My Story…
I’m Zoë, a qualified Nutritional Therapist with over a decade’s experience working in the field of female health. Growing up in a Greek Cypriot household, I have always had a passion for healthy eating and nutrition. However, in my late teens when my own health was compromised, I learnt first hand how changing one’s diet and lifestyle can be the determining factor in improving one’s health.
At the age of 18 I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This was rather distressing for a young woman given the symptoms associated with PCOS (obesity, acne, male pattern balding, excessive facial and body hair, irregular or no periods and difficulty conceiving), plus the fact that there is no known ‘cure’ for PCOS.
This prompted me to research more into the subject, which led me to discover that the symptoms of PCOS can be managed by making changes to one’s diet and lifestyle. Over two decades on, I am a healthy mum of two, completely free of all symptoms associated with PCOS thanks to embracing these changes. What baffled me though was as a naïve teenager when I went to see my Doctor they did not mention anything about my diet, lifestyle or stress levels. Instead, I was offered the contraceptive pill, and told there was no cure for PCOS.
Seeing the impact Nutritional Therapy had on my health as a whole, my digestion drastically improved and the eczema I had been plagued with most of my life cleared up, I decided I wanted to help other women who are looking for a complementary route to improving their health. This led me to train as a Nutritional Therapist at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in Central London.
Success Stories
-
" I’m also now 16 weeks pregnant and still following Zoë’s guidance."
“I came to Zoë as a fellow PCOS sufferer desperate to generally feel better, lose a bit of weight and, most importantly, get pregnant. I’d been reading a lot of information online but Zoë made it all so clear and easy, talking me through the best ways to eat and the ways in which food can help and hinder the condition, and also how my lifestyle impacted my body. With her guidance I changed the way I eat and exercised, reduced the stress in my life and gradually lost about 4kg.”

" I cannot stress enough to anyone suffering with PCOS how helpful Zoë is”.
“Having not had a period since coming off the Pill 3 and a half years ago I went to a private specialist who diagnosed me with PCOS. It was when searching the internet one day that I came across Zoë’s website and decided to give it a shot. It was quite a shock when Zoë told me that actually you can manage PCOS, and therefore have a normal menstrual cycle, through diet. Zoë provided me with a bespoke food and nutrition plan as well as providing me with a wealth of information and resources on PCOS and nutrition. I followed Zoë’s advice and although I was told that it could take months for the diet to impact on the syndrome, within two months I had my first natural period in 3 and a half years. Obviously I was delighted!

"Through Zoë’s personalised plan, I have managed to get my period back after missing it for over 6 months!".
“After being diagnosed with PCOS at the start of this year and having had a prior bad experience of the birth control pill, I knew I wanted to manage it using alternative methods. Starting Zoë’s programme filled me with hope and confidence that my PCOS would improve and be manageable. I have learnt loads about my metabolism, the importance of exercise and eating a balanced diet - without restrictions. Through Zoë’s personalised plan, I have managed to get my period back after missing it for over 6 months! I have also gained back a lot of body confidence as my bloating and weight gain symptoms have massively reduced. I am extremely grateful for the support and motivation Zoë has given me and it has been amazing to talk to someone with similar experiences and expertise. Thank you!”.
