 "My experience with Remedios Health was excellent. I worked with Natalie, who was incredibly knowledgeable and supportive throughout the process. She took the time to go through my functional health blood tests in detail, explaining everything clearly and helping me understand what the results meant for my overall health. The action plan she provided was practical and tailored to my needs, which made me feel confident about the next steps. I really appreciated her caring and professional approach."

  "I got in touch with Remedios Health as I was struggling with my energy levels. I had fatigue at certain periods of the day. I also wanted to metabolise food better as I had a fairly healthy diet and ate enough, but I was struggling to gain weight. I didn’t feel like my body was using the food correctly. I needed optimised protein and carbohydrate assimilation so my body would have more energy and help it to bulk up. I was concerned as I was struggling to gain weight and my BMI was showing as underweight.

My blood test from Remedios Health showed my vitamin D levels were very sub-optimal – my level was below normal NHS levels. The other major thing that was found with the blood test was my testosterone level was also very low. I am in my mid-twenties and my testosterone level shouldn’t have been like that. 

Once I had the blood test results consultation, Natalie recommended that I was a good candidate for the metabolic balance programme. Natalie said that this would be able to help me work out what foods worked best for me, giving me the exact amounts of foods I needed to help me put on weight and help reduce my fatigue and bloating.

I had a plan made which included supplementation of vitamin D and targeted B-vitamins which was also showing I was low in, looked at changing the timings of food intake and made a start on the metabolic balance programme.

I’m writing this after 6 months of changes and I can report back that my vitamin D levels are now in the optimum range, my testosterone is in the optimum range too. When I workout now, I feel that my body is getting into good shape and I am gaining the needed weight. I am happy that my hormones are now in the optimal ranges. My daily energy slumps have gone, I can still get tired on certain days, but I have a physical job so this can be explained on hard physical days. I realised with the switch over to the metabolic balance programme, that my body didn’t suit a high glutinous diet – previously I ate lots of pasta for lunch as I was trying to bulk up but my stomach felt bloated afterwards and maybe this also contributed to the fatigue. 

Now, I have managed to gain 5 kilos in weight and am now in the healthy BMI range. I am continuing to gain body mass as well and I’ve noticed I am stronger and have more endurance. I don’t have any bloating issues anymore and my current diet makes me feel good. I have more mental clarity and the brain fog I sometimes got before has gone. My plan is to get a blood check with Remedios Health on a yearly basis now so that I can keep my body in good shape."

"I contacted Remedios Health because I was feeling unwell and rundown. I found that conventional medicine was unable to help me and I was reluctant to follow the usual prescription, which is usually further courses of pharmaceutical medication.  Friends and acquaintances of mine had mentioned homeopathy to me and I was curious to investigate further. I started to look for local practices in the Chesterfield area and found Remedios Health in Dronfield. Natalie was very approachable and kind and welcomed me. I felt that I was being offered space and time, the time to talk and to explore all the issues. I think most of us live life in a rush and the resultant psychological stress can lead to physical signs of ill health. I am attracted to a wholistic approach to health, looking at the whole person and not concentrating upon and treating isolated symptoms.  

As a result of my consultation with Natalie I was given treatments which improved my condition.  These included natural remedies. I have subsequently researched other substances which are beneficial for health like vitamin D, magnesium and zinc. I take magnesium and zinc regularly and I am very pleased to say that at the age of 65 I have never felt healthier. I cannot remember the last time I had a cold or a sore throat!.

Thank you to Natalie and Remedios Health."

 "As I approached the age of 50, I was aware of what a landmark it is. I was also aware that, despite living a fairly health-conscious lifestyle, my energy levels were not great. Being self-employed, I could not afford low energy levels. So, I went for the best blood test I could get, the Man Ultra Test through Remedios Health. It covers 112 biomarkers! Natalie arranged for a professional and UK accredited phlebotomist to visit my home at a convenient time to take the blood. I had to do a 12 hour fast overnight so I was happy I didn’t have to travel for this.

A few weeks later, the results were in! The report didn’t just give biomarker levels and compare them against standard and optimal ranges, but it also looked at them together to decipher what this meant for my health. And yes, it was a little daunting, but I had a great consultation with Natalie, who helped come up with a plan to get things improved. 

It turned out my liver and kidneys were not altogether happy with the 22 units of alcohol I was drinking each week. I was also seriously low on certain nutrients. Armed with this knowledge, I stopped drinking, which was not difficult when I had scientific evidence of the harm it was doing. I started with a few recommended supplements and made a some minor lifestyle changes. 

Within a few weeks, I had more energy at the age of 50 than I have had in my entire life, and this has been maintained. Excess fat has dropped off, and I feel stronger than ever. 

Some people tell me they don’t want to know what a blood test will show them. I don’t understand this. What I have found is that, when you are armed with the facts, you can make targeted health changes that don’t have to be hard. By being precise and giving your body exactly what it needs, you can gain maximum benefit for minimum effort. 

My advice to anyone who is considering such a test is to go for it!"

"I had heard about Remedios Health and was eager to find out if Natalie had anything she could help me with, regarding how to keep myself healthy, given my age (64). This would give me the opportunity to address any problem areas at an earlier stage before any possible conditions became serious. We had a session to look at my whole health/lifestyle and luckily there were just a few areas where I needed to make some changes. Natalie helped me address these by talking things through with recommendations. So really for me it was more a preventative exercise given my age and to put my mind at rest which is worth a lot."

"I found my vitamin D level was way too low and my iron levels way too high. I had been supplementing the wrong things. The body connection insights I learned has allowed me to understand where I need to make changes, what I need to prioritise, taking guessing out the equation and a clear roadmap ahead."
