Gluten Free & Dairy Free at Heart!

In my heart I know living gluten-free and dairy-free is right for me. Some people ask why I’m on the diet. Why not Paleo, or Keto, or the next latest fad diet that has popularity.

I was diagnosed a coeliac 25 years ago and decided to live dairy-free over 5 years ago. I have chosen these food choices as they help me live a healthier lifestyle. I have several autoimmune diseases and I find when I eat certain foods, my symptoms become worse.

When I’m working with clients, it is a slow process. I don’t recommend a change of diet immediately, but to stop, slow down, monitor and listen to your body and its needs. Often our body and how it reacts to what we eat has been with us, but we have learnt to tune out from what it is trying to tell us both physically and emotionally.

If you feel like you need a helping hand on the journey then reach out and ask for help. We all had to start at the beginning of this journey and I totally understand how hard the journey can seem.

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

Emma Alexander-Cook

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.
