I’ve been under Layla’s care for just under a year. I had been suffering from gut issues for over 30 years. In an effort to lose weight and investigate these issues I contacted Layla. Layla has done a fantastic job at grounding me. Most of my friends are on weight loss jabs and I was tempted by the short cuts but Layla has taught me how to take it slowly and fix the gut issues and balance the hormones, particularly in the peri menopause. 10 months on and I am a different person. The gut issues have gone. I have not had a headache for over six months and have no need to turn to any pain relief medication. We have tried ProLon fasting and they have shown benefits to internal health and although not fun, they offer a whole body reset. I will continue to work with Layla to reach my goals. I’m content that I wasn’t swayed to take the short cuts and working on health rather than just weight loss.

Layla is a very friendly and knowledgeable professional. I learnt more about my conditions during my initial session with her than I had previously learned from my GP, Googling, and my online support group in the past 2 years! I have come away with some great ideas for changes to my diet and new supplements to try that should help me going forward. I am looking forward to continuing with a programme of initiatives to improve my general well-being. I would highly recommend Layla to anyone who is struggling with health conditions or who just wants to improve their overall well-being.

It has been 8 months since Dr Johnson at the Dorset Private Doctors suggested I make an appointment with Layla. I crawled into Layla's consultation room after a dreadful reaction to the Covid Jab and generally feeling very unwell, not eating or sleeping much at all. At the first consultation Layla suggested a specific l blood tests then we went through the results on the second review and Layla made various suggestions all of which I followed to the letter. Now on my third Consultation I am feeling much better, and after a full Blood Test review, apart from my sleeping, absolutely everything else is extremely positive and I feel great. Layla has made some suggestions about why my sleep is so bad, which all made perfect sense, and also suggested some recommendations and treatments to try to see if we can remedy this remaining issue. I cannot praise Layla enough, she is extremely likable, knowledgeable and very professional. If there is an answer to an issue Layla has that answer.

This was a follow-up session with Layla to discuss progress with an anti-candida programme I have been following and to review the results of a second organic acids test. The anti-candida protocol involved taking two supplements which are shown in the photographs. The Metagenics product is a high-strength probiotic and the Candipure is an anti-fungal. Initially the combination caused a significant increase in bowel movements which has reduced to some extent, indicating a welcome detoxification. Layla also explained that there had been a significant reduction in some of the markers on the organic acids test which is encouraging and whilst some had shown an increase, she explained that this was due to the detoxification process. Overall, an encouraging and productive consultation, with Layla providing clear explanations of the test results. I am to stay on this anti-candida protocol for a further 6 months at which point I shall take a further (third) organic acids test to asess progress.

I can’t thank Layla enough for setting me on the right path with a pretty severe vitamin D deficiency. She took what I said into account and tailored the whole experience to be completely personal and unique down to each symptom I was experiencing - we broke down every little detail and with her incredible knowledge and skillset recommended every next step and planned every next move. I also learnt how much nutrients and your overall wellbeing impact how your mind functions altogether too. Overall, I was amazed by how dedicated she seems to changing people’s lives and I’d certainly recommend her to absolutely anyone having thyroid/nutrient deficiency issues, she is incredibly knowledgeable!!

I’ve been working with Layla for about a year now, and the experience has been truly transformative. Thanks to her expertise and guidance, I’ve lost 9 stone and made significant improvements to my overall health and well-being. Layla’s approach is thorough and personalised, using detailed analysis to tailor a plan that not only helped me lose weight but also enhanced my overall physical health. Her support and knowledge have been invaluable, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to make meaningful, lasting changes to their health.

I first visited Layla about 3 months ago due to suffering many unexplained symptoms but mostly severe bloating. Layla suggested I did some lab tests for gut health, she dug deep on the results and suggested with my symptoms it could be a histamine intolerance. After trying a low histamine diet and recommended supplements I was amazed how quickly my symptoms improved. I found Layla to be extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her profession.
I have chosen to continue my journey with Layla and have the DUTCH test for hormones, I’m looking forward to feeling in my best health and confident Layla will get me there. Can’t thank her enough and would highly recommend anyone.

Third session with Layla following two mimic fasting periods and two months following the Candida diet with supplements. The results have been amazing and Layla has provided essential professional advice and support with treatment and protocols. Her communication is always professional, importantly using clear language that explains the science. Thankyou.
I started my journey with Layla going through prolon 5 day cleanse and this made me want to explore a lifestyle change. I’m in my mid 40s and finding weight loss incredibly hard but Layla is providing me with weekly batch cooks and I’ve recently had my results from a Dutch test highlighting my issues.

Layla is so knowledgeable about nutrition and quickly assessed my needs and provided me with advice and guidance during my appointment as well as prividing a summary with recommendations the following day. Her one to one appointments are reasonably priced and she does not try to hard sell further appointments or services, but both are available if a client wishes to engage in them. I highly recommend Layla for all aspects of nutrition advice and I look forward to working with her whilst I work towards hitting my health targets.

Layla has made such a difference to my life! The FMP program she put me on is revolutionary and completely freed me from sugar (this was my experience) I have learnt to eat a healthy diet, increase my protein intake and think about food differently.

Working with Layla has been a game-changer for me.
She explained everything about gut health so clearly — not just what to do, but why certain foods were causing reactions and how my body was responding. For the first time, I really understood what was going on beneath the surface.

And the best part? Thanks to Layla, I can now eat avocado again — my favourite food that I had to avoid for the last 10 years! I honestly never thought that would be possible. She’s knowledgeable, supportive, and really takes the time to personalise her approach.
Highly recommend!

Earlier this year I found out that I was close to being pre diabetic and also my cholesterol levels were in the high range. I decided to contact Layla, on our first conversation she made me feel so much better. She made a few suggestions as to how I could lower these levels and also introduced me to FMD The Fasting Mimicking Diet which I really liked. It has made a huge difference, not only has everything gone down to a healthy range I have also lost weight which was something I really needed to do. I feel so much better. Layla is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work. I highly recommend her for anyone who needs help with improving their health.

Thank you so much Layla!
