Who
we are
The NHAS is an organisation that provides effective nutritional
advice for women on an individual basis. It was formed in 1984 by Maryon
Stewart to help women overcome premenstrual syndrome. It has subsequently
evolved to provide advice to help women sail smoothly through their
menopause, overcome symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome as well as
addressing other important health issues.
At the time of writing the NHAS is the only organisation of its kind
in the world. We are proud of our success rate, as approximately 90
per cent of women report feeling significantly or completely better
within four months of starting the nutritional programme devised by
the NHAS.
The
NHAS is involved in the fields of health education and research and
has a depth of knowledge and clinical experience gained from many years
of working with tens of thousands of patients, without the use of drugs.
NHAS philosophy
We believe that learning how to balance diet and lifestyle while
ensuring an adequate intake of the essential nutrients is the key to
optimum health. So many health problems stem from the food we eat, but
we often neglect our diet because we do not appreciate the extent to
which it can affect our general health and wellbeing. Even if you do
not have a specific problem like PMS or IBS, but you feel that you are
not quite in peak condition, your diet and lifestyle could be contributory
factors.
The
NHAS believes that everyone is different so all of our programmes are
individually tailored to suit the individual.
Our Approach
The successful NHAS programme is based on published medical and
nutritional facts. We take a non-drug approach and specifically seek
to address the cause of each patient's ill-health. East individual is
asked to complete a comprehensive questionnaire, which contains in-depth
questions about their medical history, current symptoms, dietary intake,
social activities and lifestyle plus a seven day diet diary.
We
then evaluate the response and recommend
- Personalised
Dietary Advice
- Nutritional
Supplements that have been through clinical trials
- Exercise
on a regular basis suited to the needs of the individual
Relaxation
programme to reduce stress
We aim to make the services widely available so that we can help women
wherever they live. The consultation services are available through:
- Clinics
in London and Sussex
- Postal
and telephone consultations
- Consultations
through the Internet
