Transition Nutrition

Transition Nutrition Michelle is a Registered Nutritional Therapist and Health Coach.

Her passion is to support people to transform their nutrition and lifestyle so that they feel happier and have the freedom to do the things they love, rather than just existing. No matter what your age or circumstances, the better your energy, strength and vitality, the more you can hope to achieve in life; the closer you move towards realising your dreams and aspirations. Nutritional Therapy can help...........

I work with individuals who are struggling through their busy lives, trying to do their best despite feeling unwell. Commonly, my clients complain they are lacking energy, feeling like their hormones are ‘out of control’, experiencing digestive discomfort or feeling low or anxious. I work with clients to make changes using diet, supplements and lifestyle interventions to bring the body back into balance with the aim of optimising health. Knowing what to do is only part of the story – I also provide tools and advice to help people make changes. I look forward to working with you! :)

This was a great result for one of my clients recently. She has Type 2 diabetes and has been progressing with her plan brilliantly.

As someone begins to manage their blood sugar much better, one of the risks of being on specific medications for diabetes is hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar). If severe, this can lead to significant confusion or even loss of consciousness.

So I had written to the GP to flag that her figures were hugely improved and we had continued to monitor.

Following a surgery audit, my client received a phone call with this instruction. She was elated! 🤩

There's still a way to go for my client but with the right diet and lifestyle changes, people often don't need to rely so heavily, or even at all, on medications.

While medications can be life-saving, they often come with a worrying array of side effects and a side helping of other medications to manage these.

If you can avoid this slippery slope, seriously, why wouldn't you?! 😁

🌱 3 Reasons You Might Need a Cleanse — Not a Detox 🌱

If the word cleanse makes you think of restriction or deprivation… it’s time to think again. Perhaps the word conjures up thoughts of weird celery juice cleanses and salt water flushes, but actually? It’s just good old fashioned healthy eating with a twist or two.

You don’t need to detox as your body naturally detoxes, but the Nourish & Restore Winter Recharge programme helps to support that process with the right foods whilst resetting every system in the body, restoring energy and improving mood.

Here’s why a gentle cleanse (like my Winter Recharge) might be exactly what your body needs right now:
✨ 1. You’re feeling heavy, sluggish or ‘off’ — even though you eat well.
Everyday exposures (from food, skincare, environment) can quietly burden your system. A cleanse supports your body’s natural detox pathways — without starvation or extremes.
✨ 2. Your energy’s flat, your sleep’s erratic, and your digestion’s not quite right.
These are signs your body might be asking for a reset — not a punishment. A cleanse gives your gut, liver and nervous system a chance to recalibrate.
✨ 3. You want to feel clearer, calmer and more connected to your body — without restriction.

A true cleanse is about nourishment, not willpower. Think real food, daily rhythms, and steady support that helps your body do what it’s designed to do.
🫖 This isn’t a detox. It’s a chance to recharge and reset your systems.
And it can make you feel so much more like yourself again.

Want to join us for the Nourish & Restore Winter Recharge? Doors are open now. Sign up before midnight on Tues 13th Jan. Link in comments.

Real satisfying food 😋
Food is such an important part of our lives, and nobody wants to participate in a CLEANSE that leaves you feeling hungry and unsatisfied. That’s one of the ways the Nourish & Restore Winter Recharge is different – we’re going to be eating REAL FOOD! 😁

In fact, I’m so sure that you will love what you’ll eat during the Nourish & Restore Winter Recharge, that I’m sharing one of my favourite recipes with you.

This recipe is not only full of whole food goodness but it is also gluten and dairy free, as are all the recipes (if wished) in the Nourish & Restore Winter Recharge. There are meat/fish/vegetarian options and most can be adapted to accommodate vegan diets too.

But it’s not JUST a bunch of delicious recipes. There is daily interesting discussion about WHY we are eating WHAT we are eating, lifestyle elements, community accountability and access to me, a Registered Nutritional Therapist and Health Coach for 7 days, via a Whatsapp group. 🤩

Blackberry, Vamilla & Almond Power Porridge
Ingredients:
30g Gluten-Free oats
180-240ml coconut milk or any plant milk
1 heaped tsp ground almonds
1 tsp chia seeds
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1⁄2 pack blackberries
1 passion fruit (flesh scooped out)
1 tbsp smooth almond butter
1 tsp pumpkin seeds
Drizzle of maple syrup (optional)

Method:
Place the oats, ground almonds, vanilla and chia seeds in a small pan and add the milk. Stir to combine then bring to a low simmer stirring occasionally until you reach the desired consistency. Or cook in a microwave for 2 - 3 minutes stirring half way through. Pour into a bowl and scatter over the blackberries. Drizzle with the almond butter and add a little maple syrup. Top with the pumpkin seeds and passion fruit and enjoy 😋
