Dave originally worked as a PE teacher and so has always been aware of the importance of exercise and nutrition having overcome a number of health problems from his early youth. When it came to food sensitivities, he had to learn the hard way, as he was intolerant to many foods from his early teens. The experience of overcoming these issues led him into a journey of discovery and the desire to share his knowledge with others.
He gained his diploma in nutritional medicine with the well respected Plaskett Nutritional Medicine College. He is a fully registered member of the CThA, the CNHC and BANT.
He believes in the old adage: We are what we eat. During his nutritional therapy practice over the past 2 decades, he has seen that the main ways we can achieve good health are:
- Maintaining an optimum balance of alkaline vs acidic forming foods.
- Keeping the body’s toxic load to a minimum
- Eating an abundance of raw, living food
- Ensuring adequate essential fatty acids
- Incorporating sprouts into your daily diet
- Helping health concerns using natural techniques such as homeopathy
Dave believes that balance is the key in all areas of our lives and that physical health is a reflection of many things including emotional and mental well being. Life is a journey and each issue that arises can be seen as a challenge to overcome or as an opportunity for growth. He is of the latter camp !

Reviews / Testimonials
Immediately I met Dave I felt very at ease by his kindness and compassion. He explained everything in a manner that was easy to understand.
I was at a very low period health wise and mentally due to ongoing health issues I’d been struggling with for many years. I was on many medications from pharmacy that I felt were causing more toxicity in my body.
The report and guidance I received was so informative and something I had never received. I found learning about the foods that did not resonate with me so helpful and what my own personal nutritional needs and how best to manage disease and symptoms through diet, exercise and nutritional support and supplements and emotional practices I need. I have experienced greater health and understanding since putting these into practice. David has also continued to be very supportive since and I feel very blessed to have met him.
I hardly ever need to take a paracetamol these days which is amazing.
