Welcome to the Allergy and Nutrition Centre

This is one of the few British websites offering information and advice to sufferers from all those symptoms caused by allergies, food intolerances, Candida or other yeast infections. We specialise in using the very latest advances in allergy testing and in nutritional medicine to help people suffering from long-standing problems which are hard to explain.

Our practice was runner-up in the 2009 CAM Awards for Outstanding Practice.

We see patients in the UK in our clinics in Harley Street in London W1 and in Oxford, Sussex, Essex, but can also help people living elsewhere by means of postal/telephone/email consultations once they have filled in the three questionnaires that we use. (Parliamo Italiano)

If you are seeking information on IBS, Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, or intestinal parasites please visit the website of our sister organisation, the IBS and Gut Disorder Centre at www.ibs-solutions.co.uk. The clinic also has branches in London, Oxford, Sussex and Essex.

Over the years we have been able to help patients with many chronic conditions and symptoms to which they have not been able to find an answer from their GP. A major reason for this is that many of these symptoms are caused either by Candida and other yeast infections or by hidden food intolerances, which can be very subtle and hard to detect.

These include eczema, asthma, acne, psoriasis, IBS, migraine, fatigue, PMT, arthritis, joint pains and stiffness, sinus problems and all those symptoms often present in someone who is not quite well; variability of bowel function, itching, mental confusion and inability to think clearly, etc. There are also proven links with Ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis and depression.

In addition to improving our patients’ symptoms, we also try and give them a lifelong understanding as to what has caused their health problems in the first place and what to do to prevent them from returning.

The common ailments listed below are also particularly amenable to treatment by Nutritional Medicine:

Male Problems:
  • Acne

    A practitioner experienced in nutrition and in allergy and environmental medicine can often pinpoint exactly what is going on and treat the root cause, not just the symptoms.

    Nutritional medicine is the medicine of the future. If you choose it now you have a good chance of replacing poor health with brilliant health - the sort of health and energy you may not have experienced since your early twenties or even your teens. I think you will be very pleasantly surprised by the improvement you get.
