Hi Caroline, just want to say a massive thank you for all you help.
I came to you regarding my rash. After a chat and some allergy tests you diagnosed I had Candida, too much yeast in my liver. After a diet, on your advice, the yeast slowly came down and my liver recovered.
Also you diagnosed that I had a gluten intolerance, so I stated eating gluten free food.
Since all your advice about food that I can and can’t eat I feel so much better. I came to you feeling low, fed up, tired all the time with constant headaches and foggy brain and after our first meeting and starting the diet my foggy brain went. Slowly after my headaches started going which made me feel so much better, less tired and not feeling low.
Thank you again. I don’t know what I would have done without all your advice. You have changed my life for the better

Dear Caroline,
Before I saw you, I was constantly ill and my attendance at school was awful as I kept being sent home with migraines. I constantly felt tired and I was always congested. It was like I had a constant cold and nothing could help. The doctors just kept giving me lots of antibiotics but they didn’t do anything. I felt really frustrated and helpless as I was constantly ill and couldn’t work out why.
However, when we came to see you, I was amazed it was all down to my diet. So I immediately started my new recommended diet and began taking supplements. On the first week, you told me what I could have and it was very limited; I could only eat fish and certain vegetables which was extremely difficult. But gradually, I was allowed to eat more of a variety of foods and now I can eat most things, but I still have to avoid dairy.
Now, all of my symptoms have vanished and I feel like a different person. I am energised, my attendance has improved dramatically, I have not had a single migraine and I am no longer continuously congested. Therefore, I would like to thank you very much for all of your help and advice.

For many years I suffered with a constant bloated stomach, and fatigue. I would suffer pain after almost every meal.
After being passed around different doctors without success, it was recommended to me I should go to see Caroline at Bromsgrove Allergy & Nutrition.
Since starting the sessions 6 months ago, I am now much healthier, much happier and over 2 stone lighter. I have a full understanding of what causes my symptoms and how to avoid them.
I now truly believe most physical ailments can be solved simply by controlling what you eat and drink, and there is much truth in the old saying “you are what you eat”.
It also helps that Caroline is one of the nicest people you are ever going to meet, and it is obvious she cares about what she does and the people she treats.
I will be forever grateful to her for not only giving me a new lease of life, but probably extending it too.
Aaron P, February 2018 – Bloating / Fatigue
Caroline has helped me so much since September 2019 with my mental and physical health. I have never felt so happy and confident within myself and it is all down to her and what she has done to help me.
I was lethargic, always bloated, constantly tired and irritable and found it very difficult to concentrate. I was always told by doctors that it was because of IBS and that it was untreatable. As I got older, the pain got worse in my stomach and I just thought it was normal for me to feel that way.
Thanks to Caroline diagnosing me and changing my diet we managed to get rid of all those problems and now I am feeling so much better in myself!

I went to see Caroline at the start of this year after a long spell of tiredness and skin breakouts. I’d become so used to these symptoms that I put them down to age, overwork and possibly the menopause as I had a good diet, exercised regularly and had no weight issues
Caroline quickly identified a gluten intolerance, sluggish liver and adrenal fatigue. I followed the recommended food exclusions and took the recommended supplements and within days some of my symptoms improved, then within a couple of weeks my energy levels began to improve. I stuck to the exclusions throughout the time I saw Caroline, gradually re-introducing some items as my body recovered and until we found those items that were the root cause of my problems. I have made permanent changes to my diet and have felt much better than I have done in years, and I certainly don’t feel old anymore!
I really wished I’d seen Caroline years ago. I have recommended her to friends who have been equally as pleased with the advice she has given them.
Helen G, 2019 – Fatigue / Skin /
For some twenty years I have suffered with stomach problems, severe cramps, extremely painful menstruation and chronic fatigue. I have over the years sought medical advice from my general practitioner who could provide no explanation as to why this was happening and for a long time I just accepted the issues as ‘part of life’.
Approximately 12 months before attending the allergy centre these symptoms were becoming unmanageable and I was mentally and physically exhausted. I did some research online and came across the allergy centre quite by accident, I was initially reticent but felt a lot of the described symptoms resonated with me.
I was given a complete change of diet, which initially consisted of very basic foods and excluded caffeine, gluten and dairy products. Within weeks my sleep pattern improved, I no longer felt exhausted during the day and all my stomach problems disappeared virtually overnight. Over the next few months different foods are then reintroduced and whilst still avoiding gluten and dairy, I can now eat most foods with no issues.
Whilst the method is somewhat unconventional, the results speak for themselves and have been way beyond my expectations, I have so much more energy, my fatigue and other symptoms are now almost non existent. I can now much more easily recognise foods that aren’t appropriate and finally have a better understand as to why I was having the issues previously.
I would strongly recommend this course of treatment, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain

Caroline was recommended to me by my brother, who Caroline had diagnosed with gluten intolerance. I was experiencing symptoms of bloating and tiredness and I was diagnosed with a yeast allergy amongst other things such as malabsorption and chronic dehydration. At first I had to cut out a number of food items and drink water, initially this seemed hard, but the results came quickly and I started to feel better within 2 weeks.
At each session I could eat more and more foods until there were only a few items that just did not suit my body, which is understandable once Caroline explains it to you.
As our lifestyles and living situations change, events can affect our bodies in remarkable ways. Since my initial visit, I have seen Caroline twice more with new symptoms and concerns and she has set me back on track with my diet, each time leaving me feeling much improved after each session.
Caroline is easy to talk to and extremely supportive. I cannot thank her enough for how she has helped me over the years.
Leigh, August 2019 – Bloating / Low Energy
Dear Caroline,
I would like to express my thanks for all you have done for me since my first visit with you in June 2018.
For years I have constantly felt tired, bloated, had very little energy, and would often have palpitations. Helping to run my own business has been demanding and I found it difficult to concentrate.I constantly felt ill with very little energy and every day was just one long battle to get through.
I started to develop regular chest infections and after hospital investigations I was given strong antibiotics and inhalers.It was following a visit to your clinic with my granddaughter that you suggested I come for a consultation.
Your diagnosis was that I had a dairy/gluten intolerance and adrenal fatigue and to follow a very restrictive diet. I always thought that I had a good diet of fruit and veg but I realised there was far more to understand.
With your advice and support, I am now starting to feel much better, able to achieve more and focus on what I am doing. I do not know what state I would be in if I had not met you and cannot thank you enough for all you have done for me and my family.
