Biography: |
I have a been a clinical Dietitian for over 20 yrs and have been working in an acute care setting for the last 19 yrs. I have a strong interest in preventative medicine and have recently adopted a plant based diet to address issues with elevated cholesterol; crohn's disease; and angina, thought to be attributed to a vasospasm and/or endothelial dysfunction. My previous degree, apart from the nutrition degrees, was in health science.
So far, I have had a lot of improvement in my energy and angina symptoms since following the diet for the last 4.5 months. I am looking forward to seeing more improvements as I further refine my lifestyle and diet. Of note, I also have a pacemaker and do not fit the profile of someone that tends to have high cholesterol as I am slim, don't smoke and drink minimally.
