After gaining her first degree from Cambridge University followed by a successful career in Law, Elodie decided to return to academic study achieving a First Class degree in Nutrition Science. She then gained a Master’s in Personalised Nutrition whilst working alongside Ian Marber (The Food Doctor) in Harley Street.

Subsequently, Elodie went on to study for a PhD at Imperial College where she researched the roles of diet, lifestyle and environment in the development of cancer with a specific focus on breast cancer. Cancer in all its many manifestations has since become an area of special interest, study, and expertise.

Numerous people consult Elodie about cancer, whether it be their own or that of a friend or relative. They learn from her how cancer “works” at a molecular level, what makes the going tough for a cancer cell, how to mitigate the risk of further spread and the vital roles played by everyday nutrients in keeping non-cancerous cells functioning properly. She advises how to support the body during Standard of Care treatment and how to reduce the risk of recurrence. She urges her clients to remember that cancer is your own cells behaving badly. Your oncologist is interested only in those so that you need to interest yourself and be responsible for all the other non-trouble making cells, of which there are trillions.

But Elodie’s interest and expertise extend well beyond cancer, encompassing a wide range of chronic conditions including auto-immune disorders such as Crohn’s, ceoliac’s and MS. Also skin disorders such as psoriasis, eczema and rosacea and in all of which inflammation is a hallmark. Dietary manipulation aimed at reducing inflammatory processes is, therefore, a key consideration in such conditions on which she is consulted by people of all ages with a broad spectrum of issues and concerns. Elodie’s other areas of expertise include optimising digestive health, balancing hormones naturally and employing strategies to boost mood and memory and protect against cognitive decline.

Elodie regularly attends conferences, training courses and educational webinars to maintain, update and expand her knowledge so as to enhance her clinical practice. She also gives talks to charitable organisations and in schools. In addition, she writes short explanatory pieces, which are published on this site (see Articles) to explain in clear and simple terms the biochemical roles of certain key nutrients and dietary components and why they matter.
