About Me
I am Moira Newiss, a Registered Nutritional Therapist and Wellbeing Coach and I have resolved my own health issues including chronic fatigue, anxiety, depersonalisation and an autoimmune condition. I have done this by understanding the science of nutrition and stress. I use a lower carbohydrate and sometimes very low carbohydrate (ketogenic) or carnivore diets to help reverse the root causes which include stabilising blood sugar, balancing hormones, healing the gut and eliminating food sensitivities.
A chronic condition does not mean you have to accept it for life.
Most chronic diseases are lifestyle related which means it is possible to reverse or put it into remission just like me and many of my clients have done. I will help you to understand what has gone wrong with the biology of your body, how to take simple steps to start a reboot, to get back your energy, to lose weight, to get rid of symptoms, to improve your mental health and start the transition to a new healthier you.
Why I'm the right practitioner for you
I experienced chronic fatigue, anxiety and debilitating brain fog whilst pursuing a career as a senior manager in the NHS.
After battling on for a while I eventually reached a point of no return finding myself on the sofa every afternoon and struggling to look after my children, unable to cook the dinner or do the cleaning and no longer able to do my job effectively.
I felt detached like the world was going on around me, like the life had been drained out of me, I felt useless and a burden on my family.
All my tests were normal and my GP couldn't help me.
​
Unfortunately, and maybe partly as a result of my illness, my son (aged 8) developed chronic fatigue syndrome along with the classic symptoms of POTS such as dizziness and brain fog, he too ended up in bed many days and ended up missing months of school.
​
With little advice or expertise available on the NHS I did my own research and put it into practice. As I regained my energy I became fascinated about how we make our energy, what can go wrong with it and what we can do to get it back again. Along the way I changed career and retrained as a nutritional therapist.
I now use my knowledge and passion to help others to beat chronic fatigue and get their energy back and have put an autoimmune condition (Hashimoto's thyroiditis) into remission with diet.
Recovery is possible
I hope my story gives you hope that it is possible to recover.
We are both fully well again and we love our sport. I climb mountains and cycle and my son plays in his local football league. Not only did I get rid of all my symptoms but my energy was higher than before I got ill!
I'm lucky to live on the beautiful west coast of Scotland where I have a huge garden and grow a lot of fruit and vegetables. I love to cycle, to swim in the sea and watch our local wildlife like otters and red squirrels.
I am also a real foodie, I love creating delicious dishes and I am very passionate about food can support our health and wellbeing.
