I went to Anna as I was concerned that my diet was very poor with possible consequences for my health. I also wanted to lose some weight. Anna recommended a change in my diet and some food supplements. The transition to the new diet took place in three easy steps. I now eat a varied diet of high quality unprocessed foods which I enjoy. The digestive problems I was experiencing previously have disappeared and I have maintained good energy levels. I have lost a stone and a half in weight despite continuing to eat quite a lot. The decision to visit Anna was a good one for me as I now have a healthy sustainable diet.

I came to Anna with a problem with insulin resistance and was overweight. I found the treatment relatively easy. Anna did not push me to change my eating habits too quickly. Through the use of various supplements and gradual change in eating I am now in the 'normal' range for glucose.

Having experienced years of low energy and some sleepless nights, I went to see Anna Collins in December 09. It's now January, two months later. With some changes in my diet and nutritional supplements recommended by Anna I now find a dramatic improvement in my energy levels and zest for life. Something else that I experienced was that Anna took my lifestyle into account so that any necessary changes could be made practically and with ease. I found her to be extremely professional and passionate about her work. She has a wealth of information and in this day and age where many of the products we buy are low in nutritional value Anna's vast knowledge on nutrition is invaluable. She is highly professional and thorough in her approach and I highly recommend her as a nutritional therapist.

I visited Anna for the first time in early December 09 and by Christmas my symptoms had improved dramatically. I was suffering with gastritis, lethargy and erratic sleep. Anna's holistic approach simplified everything and the insight I gained in her company encouraged me to be more aware about my diet and well being. The advice, care and empowerment I received from Anna has changed my life for the better. Thank you.

I went to see Anna with low energy, a queasy tummy and bad headaches, especially before periods. Over a few visits we put together some manageable diet and lifestyle changes which I agreed to do. I feel so much lighter, more energetic. I’m walking on air and the headaches have gone. I’m more positive and my skin feels so clear and clean.

I can't believe how much energy I have and my bowels are dramatically improved. I had chronic fatigue syndrome and IBS before I started with Anna.
Melissa, Tipperary, October 2009
I suffered for 20 years with chronic IBS and impaction for the last 3 years. I visited Anna five times over 5 months and by the 5th visit it was totally resolved. I can't believe it. I don't need laxatives and sachets to go anymore.

I went to see Anna after a summer of discontent - stress, insomnia, and a four-month-long cold that had flared up intermittently into chest and throat infections - that left me debilitated and in low spirits. I had started running before the summer but couldn't get a good run at it, so to speak, because of being sick and at the doctor so often. Anna's very comprehensive questionnaire and sensitive, incisive questioning led her to work out very quickly what was wrong with me and to devise a nutritional programme to get me back to good health. Within a week my cold was gone, my energy levels were up and I was sleeping better. By following Anna's recipe for life, tailored especially for me, I have stayed healthy for the past six months and am now running 25km a week.

I initially attended Anna in July 2008 with severe abdominal pain and bloating. This had affected my ability to eat and also my interest in food. Anna explained to me that stress, which had been a big factor in my life for some time, can contribute to these symptoms. With her insight and advice I embarked on a healthy diet enhanced with supplements. After six months I am now feeling very well and I now have the information which Anna shared with me to keep me healthy into the future.

“Everyday life is so much easier”
Although I was on medication for underactive thyroid for several years, my energy level didn’t improve. I was constantly afraid of being unable to go to work in the mornings. I could not plan to go anywhere nor do anything major on my days off. As soon as I had done a few morning jobs, the only place I was fit for was bed.
I found that Anna understood how I felt and had an in-depth knowledge of the condition. She was able to advise me regarding what and when I should eat along with some supplements which were changed as time went by. She was very supportive in my efforts to adjust to the recommended diet and checked with me regularly to see how I felt and was managing. Gradually I got a new lease of life. I still follow the advice I have been given as diligently as I can. The quality of food is very good and extremely satisfying and I seldom miss the poorer quality foods I used to rely on.
Everyday life is so much easier. I have much more energy and interest in my work and am confident of having a better quality of life now and in the future. I would strongly recommend this investment in one’s health and well-being to anyone struggling to get by each day! Over the course of my 5 visits to Anna for Nutritional Therapy my thyroid function has improved dramatically so I no longer need medication (my TSH was 4.74 and is now 2.7 – normal).
Maire Ferguson, Greenhills, 2008
I am a client of Anna Collins since early 2008, and have to say having a consultation was one of the best decisions I made! I had suffered from a bad breakout of acne and the effects were beginning to affect me more emotionally than the physical pain of my skin being so sensitive.
My first consultation was to determine where I was going wrong, and I never looked back. Anna is encouraging, and always on hand with recipe suggestions and advice on helping me with my skin and food choices. Within a couple of weeks of taking the supplements Anna recommended and more importantly taking on board the eating habits, my skin got noticeably better. The skin is still improving, but my general mood and energy levels are much improved.
I would 100% recommend Anna Collins Nutritional Therapy to anyone having issues particularly with skin – I will never go back to eating previous to my consultations, and I think the most important thing I have learned from this is that I need to look after myself, and the best place to start is by eating healthily with minor changes to begin with!
Thanks Anna for your help, it is much appreciated.

"I consulted Anna in August 2007 for a painful bowel disorder (ulcerative colitis). She sugested some easy-to-do changes to my diet and lifestyle. Within a month or so I was much better and within 4 months was symptom-free. My gastro-enterologist has just done some new tests and can't believe my progress".

“I consulted Anna in April 2006 after 20 years of low energy (due to an underactive thyroid), terrible periods and PMS. After following some easy food and lifestlye changes over several months my PMS is gone and my periods are no problem. My energy is through the ceiling so I have a social life again and by the way I also lost 2½ stone!”

“I was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2002, after 9 years of misdiagnoses in Ireland and the USA. I had a laparoscopy in , with no success; have been on the pill, with depressing side effects, and have taken pain medication of increasing strength over the past 15 years, all with no improvement. Since consulting with Anna by phone (I live in the USA) and making changes to my diet, I not only have experienced great relief in terms of pain, my insomnia has vastly improved, my energy levels have gained and my mood has stabilised to a degree I never imagined possible. Anna shared information openly with me and answered my questions as an equal, not as a 'superior' being(!).
Anna has a great ability to be encouraging and positive and recognises the small steps taken which make a big difference. Where I would feel like I hadn't done enough, she always focussed on what I had done and congratulated me for that! Her encouraging attitude and supportive outlook motivated me to keep doing more - for my benefit!”

Last year, I suffered from stomach pains, bloating and hormonal imbalance and I went to see Anna to seek some help. She put me on a simple dietary and lifestyle changes that were easy to fit into my life. After 12 weeks my symptoms disappeared and today I still follow her helpful guidelines most of the time.She always worked with so much enthusiasm and expertise that I strongly recommand her to you if you need to improve your health.
