Dietetics
 

Food intolerance can significantly affect quality of life, yet many people don’t connect their symptoms to the food they eat.

Conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, migraines, sleep problems, rashes, stomach aches, diarrhoea, constipation, mouth ulcers and hyperactive behaviour in children are related to diet in many people.

Symptoms in babies can include colic, gastro-oesophageal reflux and rashes. Some sensitive babies who are breastfed can have problems as a result of what their mothers are eating. Click here to download Joy’s article published in Child magazines throughout Australia in June 2010.

Consultations focus on the individual. Each person with food-related symptoms is different, so special diets excluding large numbers of foods are not the best that you can do for yourself. The aim is to find the least restricted diet. This way you can enjoy lots of normal foods and avoid only those that cause problems.

Health Fund rebates available for diet related consultations
