Hi, I’m Dr Nina,
I’m a registered nutritional therapist in Edinburgh, a qualified pharmacist and a scientist with a PhD in organic chemistry. I take a whole-person approach, supporting adults with a broad range of health, nutrition and wellbeing concerns in person in Edinburgh and online across the UK.
My background in pharmacy and scientific research shapes the way I work. Rather than looking at symptoms in isolation, I consider the wider picture - including your health history, nutrition, lifestyle, medications, daily habits and personal goals.
My approach is evidence-based, carefully researched and tailored to you. My analytical mindset helps me connect the dots and turn complex information into clear, practical steps. Above all, my role as a registered nutritional therapist is to help you make sense of your health, understand your body better and feel more confident in the choices you make.
You’re in the right place if…
Living with ongoing symptoms is slowly chipping away at your confidence. You may feel disconnected from your body, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or unsure which direction to take next.
Nutritional therapy gives us the time and space to make sense of what is happening. I bring together your symptoms, health history, diet, lifestyle, medications and everyday routines to look for meaningful patterns. From there, we build a clear, personalised plan designed to help you feel more informed, supported and in control of your health again. Read more about My Approach and Functional Medicine here.

Nutrigenetics and personalised nutrition
Nutrigenetic testing explores how your individual genetic variations may influence the way your body responds to food, nutrients and lifestyle. It can provide useful insights into areas such as nutrient needs, metabolism, appetite, blood sugar balance, hormone processing, inflammation and detoxification. I interpret your results alongside your symptoms, health history and goals, turning complex genetic information into practical, personalised nutrition and lifestyle recommendations.

Questions…
-
Both. I mostly work online across the UK, but I offer face-to-face appointments in Edinburgh if you would prefer.
-
We talk briefly about your symptoms, what support you are looking for, and whether I am the right fit to help you.
-
Not always. Recommendations depend on your symptoms, history, and goals. If extra support is appropriate, I will explain your options clearly.
-
Most clients start with a 12-week personalised programme, with different levels of support available. Changes take time, and we usually need at least 12 weeks together to start seeing results.
