Food is my medicine

Do you ever get asked why your gluten free and dairy free? This simple phrase answers perfectly. ‘Food is my medicine.’ It’s a great starting point to explaining that if we eat the wrong things we get sick. Our bodies are 100% worth eating gluten free and dairy free for, we feel better for not eating it and this isn’t a fad diet! This is our lifestyle choice for keeping healthy and therefore also happier. After all, who likes being sick?

Remember you are 100% worth the medicine of eating correctly and how easy is our medicine! How amazing does our medicine taste! What great side effects does our medicine have! Our medicine is melon, banana, carrots, peas. Our medicine is pineapple and cherries. Our medicine keeps us healthy and makes us strong.

If you feel like you need a helping hand on the journey then reach out and ask for help. Get in contact with your local Coeliac society, a friend or a family member. I’m happy for you to contact me via the form below.

I hope you have enjoyed this information. Until next time!

My name's Emma. I've been living gluten-free for over 25 years, and I've been dairy-free for over five years.

Health and Auto-immune Diseases

I have auto-immune diseases and expected to be on medicine for the rest of my life, but I didn't want to live like that. My rheumatology Doctor was so supportive of the change I wanted to make, and with their help, I now manage my auto-immune diseases by being strict with my diet.

It can be quite frightening when you first find out you have to change the way you eat but for some of us' Food is our medicine.'

I have several websites, write blogs, and I'm currently in the process of writing a book.

I trained to be Holistic Health Coach, Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher and Certified Gluten Free Practitioner in order to heal myself, my family and others who find themselves on the same journey as myself.

Photography

Our love for photography started on our travels. We wanted to capture images of the areas we travelled to both for our own records and for our family back at home. Some of these images were reproduced as watercolours. Our favourite images we display at home and friends often asked where we had purchased the pictures! Now you can purchase them online directly from us.

Coaching and Consultancy

Previously an IT Manager my skill set has come in very handy as I am both a Health Coach and also offer consultancy for small business starts up and fellow Health Coaches. This has included building websites and online profiles.

Our Family

Family is everything to me! We have a family of four boys where the age difference between the youngest and the eldest is 18 years. Two of our sons are also Gluten Free and Dairy Free. Emma is a Health Coach who specialises in helping individuals and families achieve their health and wellness goals. Ian runs his own business which began developing a Race Timer for diecast model cars.
