Testimonials as a Clinical Nutritionist

Maria Middlestead

“My little girl has no more clumsiness, drama queen mood swings, sore tums, smelly poos or eczema. My husband and mother-in-law couldn’t believe diet was related – now they’re convinced”.  Tracy Halverson

“The specialist at Auckland Hospital says my brain tumour has shrunk to a small bump she called a ‘negligible feature’, which means what we have done nutritionally has paid off after only 3 months. Is that not wonderful? I am going from strength to strength and feel consistently well throughout each day. One billion thank you”. Ali Sanderson

“Lily’s behaviour has had a marked improvement since seeing you. Her skin is much better and the cradle cap is gone”. Heather Desdon

“Even the Year 12 Dean sees such an improvement in Sarah’s behaviour. You have been a real lifeline to a very unhappy girl and an exhausted mother”. Julie McDonald

“After three unsuccessful pregnancies we have a beautiful baby girl thanks to you (well, not entirely!)”. Karen Edwards

“My specialist and his nurse are impressed with how you’ve achieved this improvement. In less than 6 weeks my cholesterol is now normal”. Ann Malins

“More energy, lost weight, I haven’t felt I’ve been on a diet. My husband is impressed with the changes – especially my moods!” Jo Davison
