Kate & Sophie's Testimonial

"My daughter had been suffering with tummy problems for approximately 2 years.  We initially thought it was because of a perforated appendix but a year after she had it removed she still had a constant feeling of nausea.

​

We had repeatedly taken her back to the doctors and finally got a referral to Medway Hospital.  After some tests they diagnosed her with acid indigestion and reflux and prescribed her Omeprazole.  While this improved things it didn't feel like a long-term solution (she took it for 5 months and they were very happy to continue her subscription).  As a parent this didn't feel right at all.  There were no suggestions for a change of diet.

​

We were really keen to look at alternative ways to help Sophie and having realised this was available through JGN we thought we should give it a try.  The programme offered felt thorough and allowed enough time to find the source of the problem and see some results.

​

Through dietary changes we were able to completely take Sophie off her prescription medication within 4 months, and she didn't have any negative side effects at all.  This was a huge relief for all of us.  

​

Sophie is like a different child.  She has more energy, she is more alert and she hasn't had one sickness bug since the changes in her diet (despite 2 bouts of Gastroenteritis and Norovirus in her school).  Sophie has dyslexia and both her out of school tutor and her class teacher have mentioned a noticeable improvement in her ability to concentrate and general health. She also attends a number of dance classes each week and her dance teachers have also observed the change.

​

An unexpected benefit for us has been a change in diet for the whole family, because the great advice Juliana has given us for Sophie has been adopted by the whole family.  We have significantly increased the amount of plant food we are all eating and have cut back on protein.  We have all now introduced healthier breakfasts to our daily routine... My husband even takes overnight oats into the office with him!

​

We can't thank Juliana enough for the brilliant advice she's given us for Sophie at what felt like a crucial moment in her life.  She is listening to her body more and is willing to try lots of different foods that she would absolutely not have considered 6 months ago."
