Living with poor gut health symptoms is not normal!

Do you suffer from bloating, gas, diarrhoea, constipation and reflux?

If you answered YES, then you are one of the many people who suffer in silence from digestive problems. Talking about pooh is taboo, which has lead to an epidemic of gut diseases and associated complications.

 It is time to end the stigma and be friends with your gut.

 Gut Health Conditions I Work With

  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (ISB)
  • Leaky Gut
  • Coeliac Disease, Chron's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis
  • Food Intolerances, Histamine Intolerance
  • Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth
  • Constipation, Reflux, Gastritis, Ulcers, Diverticulitis

How do you know if your gut is damaged?

You gut is home to trillions of bacteria. They are supposed to live in symbiosis with you enabling functions such digestion, nutrient absorption, neurotransmitter production, immunity and reduction of inflammation. They also regulate gene expression and can help you maintain a healthy weight.

When your bacteria become imbalanced you are bound to know it. Symptoms can include:

  • bloating & food intolerances
  • abdominal pain, gas & reflux
  • constipation, diarrhoea & mucus in your stools
  • belching, burping, smelly wing
  • painful & stiff joints
  • foggy mind, mood swings, anxiety & depression
  • skin conditions, such as acne, eczema, psoriasis or dermatitis. 

These symptoms are not normal and indicate that you have a gut problem.

All disease starts in the gut.

What cause gut problems

The daily rat race is enough to knock your digestion and bacteria out of balance. Additional factors can include:

  • stress & sleep deprivation
  • a poor diet, caffeine and alcohol
  • being sedentary, poor posture or training too much
  • poor breathing & lack of oxygenation
  • inflammation and pain
  • brain degeneration, anxiety, depression
  • toxins, chemicals and mould exposure
  • some medications, drugs and antibiotics


In addition one of the most common underrated factor for poor gut health and digestive problems is how you eat. Eating fast and not chewing your food properly can lead to a host of problems including reflux, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea and multiple nutrient deficiencies.

What my clients experience

Anca was a pleasure to work with, she has helped create a total lifestyle change for me with outstanding results. In a few short months we have overhauled my diet with a focus on understanding proper nutrition and maintaining optimal gut health through to helping deal with stress and anxiety. I would recommend her to anyone of my friends or family.

I have long followed the principals of 'food as medicine' & thought I was eating pretty well until Anca set me straight! For me, among other things,  it was recognizing that I was not eating nearly enough & needed much more variety. Following her  advise, my children and I have seen improvements in our overall health, digestive issues & energy levels.
My son's mast cell triggers are now better controlled as I understand now  where those histamines are hiding in our diet.
More than a dietician, Anca is a healer.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND


Josephine Ellia

I was referred to Anca by my GP after having issues with gut health and severe bowel problems.  I previously had been hospitalised, prescribed a plethora of prescription medication and also attended numerous specialists including gastrointestinal health, allergy and immune functioning, all to no avail.
After less than a month under consultation from Anca, I have noticed great results. I now know what it is like to feel normal, my bowels are no longer a problem, a series of healthy supplements and diet/nutrition changes have changed my life. I no longer take prescription meds, my allergies are almost non-existent and I have a new energy and a much healthier lifestyle. Highly recommend!
