Testing For Food Sensitivities.
Course tutor: Hazel Miller

This practical and fun workshop will provide you with the tools to detect food sensitivities in yourself, family and friends.

Each of us is unique and often even “good” foods can sometimes reduce energy levels, effect mood and create weight gain.

Find out the best foods to keep you energised, alert and feeling happy.

Be prepared to join in by learning simple muscle testing techniques. You will be fascinated to discover how your body responds to different foods, giving you invaluable insight into keeping well and healthy.
