Diane persuaded me to try an Ayurvedic diet as I have suffered from chronic acid and had been taking Losec for over 20 years. I also suffer from Psoriasis which I currently take an injection for fortnightly.
After being on the diet for 1 month I stopped my Losec and couldn’t believe that I didn’t suffer from heartburn at all, I was completely cured.
I tried stopping my medication for Psoriasis after 3 months and although it did appear again but only slightly so I decided to give my body more time to heal itself with the diet and will try again in 6 months. I will be stopping my psoriasis medication again soon to see how it is.
I was always dubious about diets but this was a very easy transition and with a little research and recipes recommended by Diane I have managed to stick to it and even my husband and three boys are on it without even knowing.
I still have a glass of wine and drink an expresso everyday which isn’t part of my diet but it still worked for me so don’t let that scare you.
I would definitely recommend you try it for yourself if you have any issues as I am living proof it works.

I was very sceptical when I first heard about Ayurveda and thought it wasn’t for me, however when I was offered a steroid injection for arthritis in my hip & an operation for a rotator cuff problem in my shoulder I decided to give it a go. Very quickly I noticed a difference in my hand, knees & hip where I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis the biggest difference came with my shoulder, so much more movement and I am continuing to improve. You are what you eat & with Diane’s continuing support throughout my journey I would recommend you give it a go.

Ayurveda has changed the way I think about what I eat. For years I have struggled with weight issues and a few health concerns and have tried many different eating plans over the years to look better, but now, as a senior, it’s more about being in the best of health inside and feeling as good as I can. I had a long and thorough consultation to ascertain my body type and the best food to fuel my body. When I changed my thought pattern and made some adjustments to the food I was eating it helped with a few health issues such as swollen legs and bloated abdomen. I have been following my new regime for 18 months and feel so much better, lots of energy and zest for life. My body clock is in tune with my lifestyle and has a bonus, I have lost 2 stones. I can’t thank Diane enough for introducing me to Ayurveda and for the ongoing support.

In short, I was fed up with myself. I thought I had got through the worst of the menopause, but I still did not feel right. The extra weight I was carrying wouldn’t budge, my joints ached and I just felt unhealthy. I have always had an interest in alternative therapies, so when someone recommended I speak to Diane, I took the leap and I have not looked back.
Alongside the dietary changes, I started taking supplements tailored to my needs. Three months in, the weight is finally coming off. Best of all, I can walk down the stairs in the morning without pain – no more one step at a time.
I feel healthier, lighter, and more in tune with myself than I have in years. Every time I re-order my supplements, Diane takes the time to check in with me personally. Even during moments when I have struggled, she has been incredibly reassuring, always supportive and never dictatorial. Her guidance feels like a partnership, not a prescription, and that has made all the difference.

Almost straight away the results were really positive. My breathing, when exercising, is completely better and my heavy legs have disappeared. I didn’t really find it hard to give up certain foods. I think that was because my mind and body were set to make a change from the start. I will definitely carry on this path; what a relief it’s been by just changing a few things in my diet and keeping up my regular exercise.
