Pictured below, is Anita Walsh Nadura’s Clinical Nutritionist and Biochemical & Advanced Nutrient Therapy Specialist. Anita was presenting Nadura’s F.E.B.S programme at “Healthy Body” “Healthy Mind’ conference 2017 at WIT Arena on the 28th July last. This aim of this event was to hear first hand the struggles people have encountered with their mental health and the strategies and services available to address these issues. The event was attended by over 100 people who heard some very personal stories of speaker’s experiences with mental health struggles, and how they worked and still work to overcome these issues. Anita spoke on the topic of brain chemicals (neurotransmitters) and how our digestion, biochemistry and genetics can all have a very strong influence on their optimum regulation. She discussed specific laboratory testing now available as part of Naduras FEBS protocol and also the importance of targeted individual nutrient therapy programmes. The event was organised by Gina Ryan and included a host of specialist speakers including Enda O Doherty “Washing Machine Man”, Simon Power, Jessica Manning and Ciara Vitte.

Client testimonial  I first went to Anita in August 2016 when I was 15, suffering with severe depression and anxiety. I was taken to see if I was suitable for anti-depressant but this was not something that I wanted to take. So my family and I looked for other options. We were told about Nadura Clinic’s by a friend and we booked an appointment. Anita recomended that I have a specific blood panel completed and she explained to me that the way I was feeling wasn't my fault that there may be a very prominent biochemical imbalance that may be making me feel like this and that lifted a huge weight off my shoulders. Anita created a plan for me that completely changed my life. I became more confident and outgoing. I even joined sports clubs and now take part in discussions. I used to have panic attacks over going into school and I was a mess when it came to tests and exams but now I'm going in there without any worry. I encourage people to take this scientific and evidenced protocol as it really helps. As a 15 year old I am finally doing normal 15 year old things and I couldn't be happier as I now feel I understand and can control what makes me, me.  Aoife Sweeney, Wexford. When you really don't understand what's going on? Why you feel like you do? It's quite difficult to make any improvement, in any direction. This is something we really focus on correcting for [...]

A statement resonated with me during our monthly in-clinic practitioner training today at Nadura clinics, when speaking about our F.E.B.S (Functional Epigenetic & Biochemical Screen) programme and in particular "Anxiety" It was simply Anxiety- taking down another factor!!! This was when speaking about the link between specific dietary influences and the variations in an individuals biochemistry. Like most forms of imbalance and illness in the body, anxiety has multiple causative factors. Sometimes we lack the focus or time to get appropriate advise and challenge one particular issue, before we move on to correct the next. One extremely underestimated factor that can often be missed is simply DIET. Yes, what we put into our mouths can have an impact on triggering anxiety and commonly drives this process with along with other factors. Before our clients biochemistry and genetics are tested, we need to ensure their diet is complimenting their efforts and not hampering it. Certain types of refined sugar and the amounts that we eat can have a direct effect on our mood and particularly for those who are predisposed. Every client case is individual, but many of our clients are placed on a low carb/higher fat protocol with the aim of reducing nervous system stimulation from refined sugar while giving their brain and synapse a constant feed of high quality fatty acids. The results [...]

Janurary of 2014 was when I first got in contact with Anita. At 20 years of age I was in my second year of college studying languages and due to spend 6 months teaching in Spain as part of my work placement. Unfortunately after only 3 weeks I was forced to return home due to severe stomach problems. Despite being naturally thin, I had lost a lot of weight. I had no energy and could barely stomach anything without having cramps or bloating. In just a short space of time I had become very unwell. A couple of months prior to this I had suffered from similar symptoms but this was just the beginning of a 3 year long battle with food and stomach related issues. While I had constantly looked for the cause of my stomach issues (bacteria in my gut, leaky gut syndrome, IBS to name a few), I had never once put it down to stress until talking to Anita. She explained the workings of the body and how the brain and digestive system are so closely related. The food you put into your body helps your brain to function and also the stresses of life and pressure we put ourselves under can have a huge impact on our gut. All my worries had literally turned my stomach into such a knot it couldn’t digest the food I was putting into me. Therefore the more I stressed over things the worse my stomach got and the less food I could tolerate. It had become a vicious circle – the stress and constant [...]

I was first told about Anita in Nadura from my partner who had attended. My anxiety kept me from doing a lot of normal things like speaking to a new person or going new places. I couldn't go to the shops on my own without my heart racing thinking people were looking at me. I couldn’t speak to any parents at the school when I dropped my daughter off. I was an emotional wreck most days. Everything got me down. I was only 25 at this stage and I felt like I was going to live the rest of my life feeling alone and trapped inside. I couldn’t go on a night out without having a panic attack just thinking about being out. I couldn't leave my daughter for a night because my anxiety was so bad over thinking every little thing and I couldn't trusted anybody. I couldn't sleep at night because my brain was just in over load thinking up stuff that wasn't even going to happen. My partner made me an appointment with Anita a year ago. I felt sick even thinking about going to see her. He had to take a day off work just to make sure I went. Anita explained everything about my diet and because I had a baby my copper levels were high and she went through it all step by step. She could tell me how I was feeling before I told her. As I sat there listening to Anita I finally felt like I was going to be ok and I wasn’t the only girl who was like this. My hands were sweating my heart was [...]

I first approached Anita when I had concerns about my son's tongue tie. I had read about tongue tie being linked to folic acid in the diet, so I was concerned about how food would affect his health, but I didn't know how to find out if he had these issues or how to deal with them if he did. From our first phone conversation and throughout every consultation since, Anita was a wealth of information. She took time and care to explain everything in great detail, in a way that I could understand. She arranged for genetic testing through a cheek swab, which was non-invasive and easy to do with a squirming baby! The results were incredibly detailed, giving us an invaluable tool to ensure optimum health and nutrition for his childhood and his whole life. Through this process, we have learned how to tailor his diet to suit his particular needs, which foods and nutrients to avoid or limit that could potentially cause upset, and which ones to include to promote health and address his particular imbalances. It has given us the gift of a preventative, protective approach to our child's health, rather than trying to treat potential illness after it happens. I would not hesitate to recommend Anita to anyone who wants to gain an insight into how their genes are affecting their health, particularly for parents who would like to take a proactive approach to their child's health [...]

Functional Sports Performance Nutrition Clinic Testimonial Marc Flavin National M35 Duathlon Champion & A1 Cyclist Dungarvan CC Testimonial  I first made contact with Lee at Nadura Clinics in December 2016. At the time I was mostly running and doing a few spins on the bike. I was just after running the half marathon in Waterford (78:18) and I called Nadura with my only concern was to lose more weight to help me run better. After talking with Lee he told me I wasn't eating near enough food to properly fuel my body. So imagine this being told to nearly double my food intake before Christmas happy days. Not just any old muck more protein to help build more muscle. To say I wasn't sure about it was a understatement but low and behold 6 weeks later I was up muscle mass and down body fat while maintaining body weight. So with Lee's plan working with set about added supplements to help me get the most from training and stay illness free. In February I ran a 58:20 for the 10 mile John Treacy and this for a non-runner. From then to the National Duathlon Championships. I trained 26 days in a row and didn't pick up one bug. I believe this is totally down to the nutritional advice and performance supplements recommended by Nadura. I went on to win the national title for M35 in the duathlon championship along with being in the top 5 duathletes in the national series.[...]

We understand know that it can be confusing over certain foods, changes to food groups that you may need to add or eliminate along with how to implement all this new information. We know, sometimes it’s difficult when your diet and lifestyle habits are being turned upside down. We like to listen to our clients. You did ask, we did listen and we got to work to see how we can further improve client outcomes. Hence the ‘Nadura app’ was born!
