ABOUT
ME
Hello and welcome to the page about me, Elly Ling!
​
Living and working in London (my home town), I am a certified nutritional therapist and a proud member of the British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). I work with clients in the UK and globally.
​
A bit about my story - My journey to nutrition started when I turned 30 and was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) which if you look on the internet, it's one of the most confusing topics for female health - I was left feeling helpless. At the same time, I was chronically and acutely stressed at work, commuting every day into central London and was socially very active too. Five years later I was at the top of the corporate ladder (aka even more high pressure) and I was also left feeling continuously burnt out and emotionally hollow...I had a yearning to find answers and do something more deeply meaningful.
​
Learning about nutrition started as a personal interest and after doing an advanced nutrition diploma, I took a leap and dived into an MSc Nutritional Science & Practice degree. The world of functional nutrition blew my mind! I am fascinated about the biological roles and benefits of food and how our bodies are incredible machines. Now, with my knowledge I would love to be able to inspire others and I'm passionate about helping women in the corporate world, because I recognise the unique challenges they face. But I've also discovered that with the right nutritional guidance and lifestyle adjustments, it's possible to thrive, not just survive.
​
My philosophy is rooted in a holistic understanding of health. I believe that true wellness is not merely the absence of disease, but a harmonious balance of mind, body and spirit where we can live and feel our best. Whilst nutrition is pivotal, it's just one piece of the puzzle. A person's environment, stress levels, mindset and emotional well-being all play significant roles in their overall health.

Thank you for reading about my transformative journey...now let's begin yours!
