Kirsten Brooks has 18 years' experience as a registered nutritionist, having completed her BSc Hons degree in nutrition in 2006. Since then, she has gone on to become an expert in her areas of specialism - brain function, as well as mental health, food addiction, stress, hormone balance, gut health and weight-loss (including emotional eating). Having overcome her own serious health battles, she has helped hundreds of individuals thrive with tailored science-based, nutritional & lifestyle medicine that’s straightforward & takes away the guess work. This is enhanced with health coaching to maximise motivation & deliver results. Kirsten offers both in-person consultations in her South East London clinic, as well as remote consultations available online world-wide.
Precision Nutrition
Health is multi-faceted and integrative medicine focuses on the whole person and root cause. Kirsten uses FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE, which recognises that all systems in the body work harmoniously rather than independently. She addresses underlying causes with an individualised nutrition plan, using coaching to keep you on track. Cutting edge LAB TESTING can accelerate the process (where appropriate) and Kirsten can even identify and potentially target genetic factors – see NUTRIGENOMICS.
Achievable
Conscious of our busy lives, Kirsten uses a collaborative approach to create a plan which is realistic - even for those who aren’t fans of cooking. She can help you overcome
barriers otherwise hindering your success, providing tools to contend with emotional eating and always encouraging a balanced relationship with food, creating a simple, more positive path ahead tailored to you.​

Kirsten's overcome her own debilitating health issues
Kirsten is flourishing with ADHD — to learn more about her experiences with this condition, see here. She no longer has PMDD, no longer does she experience serious mental health issues, having ALSO suffered from burnout & fibromyalgia (plus weight gain from PCOS). For more info, see ABOUT page & there's a blog on her personal story here. She empowers her clients to do the same with their own issues, demonstrating that a diagnosis is not always a prognosis. By balancing the nervous system, brain function & hormone balance & metabolism – all often compromised by stress, her tailor-made plan will enhance resilience & wellbeing, lowering inflammation and other imbalances, associated with chronic illness. And emphasis will always also be put on GUT HEALTH as the brain and gut are deeply connected.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE
I started meeting with Kirsten regularly in September 2022, and she has been absolutely crucial in advising on key changes in my diet, which resulted in a new lifestyle really: lost weight, improved health, higher energy levels, and she also sorted an eczema which no one was able to cure for decades! Kirsten is fantastic in showing how wellness is connected to balanced, healthy diet. I absolutely recommend her if - like me - you are going through a phase of hormonal changes, stressful lifestyle, and difficulty balancing everything on the metaphorical plate! She will show you the way!
ELEANORA C.
I was suffering badly from depression and anxiety that was really debilitating but since help from Kirsten, changing my diet, adding in tailored supplements and upping the visits to the gym, my depression and anxiety has totally lifted. I am so grateful to Kirsten that I can feel myself again
GARY.S
I have suffered with IBS in varying forms for well over thirty years. Kirsten arranged laboratory stool testing for me which identified several imbalances and with this knowledge was able set up a staged dietary plan which also included gut supporting supplements to help an overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria and inflammation. I now suffer no longer and thank Kirsten for relieving me of my daily fight with IBS.
