Full Biography (you may need a cup of tea)

1. Working as a Consultant in Nutritional Medicine (clinical work)

Over what feels like decades (because is decades !), Juliet has gained enormous experience in clinical practice from within the NHS and private healthcare. Research in nutrition science continues to accelerate awareness of the relationship between nutritional status and physical and mental health. The combination of her clinical and academic roles enables her to continuously build her knowledge base and develop expertise in several specialist areas of nutritional medicine.

Juliet works closely with her patient, aiming to give them the best personal advice available to help meet their needs and achieve their goals. Her patients often feel better than they have done in many years, or they finally give birth to a long-awaited baby, or reach that long-awaited goal……

She receives heart-warming feedback from many of her patients which means the world to her.

2. Working in Corporate Health and Well-being.

As Juliet’s reputation in sports performance nutrition grew, senior executives at several corporations approach her to express an interest in corporate performance nutrition and how her work could benefit their employee health and performance. Juliet worked with various CEOs, executive and senior management teams to design and integrate strategies to help create a healthier company culture. The results from these nutrition and lifestyle interventions were profound. Company employees ate better, slept better, and laughed more. As employees began to thrive, so did the company. These companies soon realised that a small financial investment, alongside some carefully integrated nutritional and lifestyle interventions, produced significant health, well-being, and performance gains. Companies I have worked with, and who value their employees’ health and well-being, include Royal Dutch Shell, ITV, British Telecom, TXM Heath, TXM Plant and Group M and others
