Caroline Barton Nutrition Diet and lifestyle plans to manage your health with simple steps and supportive advice Who do I work with? How does it work? What do you get? What now?

As a registered nutritional therapist and naturopath, my approach nurtures the body and mind to rebalance, using food as medicine, incorporating lifestyle advice to return you to optimal wellbeing. Complementing traditional medicine, naturopathic nutrition focusses on the root cause of symptoms to enable meaningful, long-term improvement. Advice is simple and supportive, driven by what is manageable and achievable for you, to make a positive difference to your health. I understand it can be stressful and tiring to find inspiration in the kitchen to feed yourself or your family with nutritious food they will enjoy. From experience with my own family and running a farmers’ market food stall, I offer practical help with recipes and workshops to make daily meal preparation quick and easy, tasty and wholesome. I work with men and women of all ages, including young adults who want to make confident choices about food and health issues. Typically they are people who seek a health improvement but are unsure what will work for them or where to start. If you put up with symptoms impacting your life such as low vitality, problem skin, unhappy tummy, cravings, low mood/stress and anxiety, weight control, or ongoing bone/hormone/metabolic issues, then targeted diet and lifestyle support can make a real difference. We discuss your health goals and agree a personalized plan of action, including step-by-step changes followed by frequent check-ins together to review progress, develop the plan, make any tweaks and help you stay on track. The initial consultation can be in person at my home, or via Zoom, catch-ups normally on Zoom. It’s a good idea to allow 3 months or more for best results, though you may see earlier improvements. Options:
3 x month package: price £250
initial consultation of 90 minutes, where I take a full health, diet and lifestyle history.
6x fortnightly catch-ups (15-45 minutes), to build the plan and overcome any problems. Discount on any recommended supplements.
1 x month package: price £180
initial consultation as above, plus 3 weekly catch-ups. I may suggest functional tests or supplements, but my first approach is to achieve change through diet. (Functional tests or supplements may be useful, but my….) To book a free 20 minute discovery call or an appointment, please e-mail or message, and I’ll get back to you promptly. I am a member of ANP (Association of Naturopathic Practitioners) which promotes quality healthcare, education and research, ensuring practitioners are suitably qualified and adhere to standards to maintain and protect the public.

Well there’s no denying it’s definitely very GREEN!
This spinach and lentil soup is very easy and very tasty and very good for you! Makes a delicious lunch topped with toasted seeds and sauerkraut (as here), or crumbled feta or halloumi croutons - whatever little extra floats your boat.
SPINACH and LENTIL SOUP
1 leek finely sliced
An inch k**b of ginger, peeled and finely sliced
1 tin of green or brown lentils
250-300g fresh spinach
vegetable stock/bone broth
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg or allspice
-sweat the leeks in a large pan with ginger, in a generous k**b of butter, olive oil and a good pinch of salt for 5-10 minutes till nicely softening
-meantime make the stock with either bouillon or a stock cube. I use less water than on packet instructions and substitute some bone broth - but this is optional.
-add the tin of lentils to the pan, give it a stir and then add the spinach, along with enough stock just to cover (I like a thick soup so I don’t add too much liquid, you can always add more once blended if you prefer a thinner consistency) placing on the lid and simmer for 5 minutes till wilted.
-off the heat, blitz with a stick blender till smooth, serve in bowls topped with toasted seeds and sauerkraut or your favourite topping
* lentils add protein and fibre
* spinach is a good source of iron, folate, calcium and vitamin C

You will just need some filtered or bottled water, flaky salt, a cabbage- plus some onion or caraway if you wish - but it’s fine without - and a kilner or clean glass screw top jar.
-chop, salt and stand that cabbage for a few hours
-pack tightly into a jar, ensure it’s just covered with brine
-use cabbage core as a plug to keep submerged, and seal
-after a couple of days when bubbles appear, remove lid and press down to burp, replace lid
-ready after 10-14 days, store in the fridge
*stir through veg and coleslaw
*use in sandwiches and salads
*gut-friendly and super-nutritious
Let me know how you get on!

Can’t think what to eat? Same old lunch?
I know! I’ve had a week like that - but you can still bring variety to the same easy standbys (like my favourite egg sandwich!) which is my go-to when I can’t really think what I want.
Surprising how much you can add in!

If you keep leftovers in the fridge and a well- stocked cupboard, there’s always something you can throw together for lunch - even if inspiration fails you at first!
I’ve got salad leaves, raw sugar snaps, avocado, warm crispy mushrooms and the last of my roast squash warmed up, smoked salmon - all brought together with a great dressing (olive oil, cider vinegar, mustard and miso).
Forgot to add some pumpkin seeds - drat!
