Our Story
My name is Helena Louis Fernand and this is my story about my passion to bring My Nutri Profile to you.
I have always had an interest in healthy food and nutrition from a young age after developing a near-fatal nut allergy at six years old. But it was my own health problems as an adult that forced me to embrace nutrition in a way I had never thought before… and it changed my life forever.
Fifteen years ago I was constantly unwell with a number of health issues. I ended up seeing a Nutritionist which is when I discovered the various symptoms I was suffering were all food related. I didn’t know I was wheat and lactose intolerant, not to mention a host of other food demons, but mainly my histamine levels were unbalanced. I started a prescribed course of supplements and cut out a number of the culprits that were causing the trouble. I couldn’t believe how after just a couple weeks I started to feel better. Surprisingly, my brain fog had gone and I didn’t feel sick after every meal.
I had a hair mineral analysis test done, which reported the historical data of my vitamin, minerals and toxic levels. I had been on the verge of adrenal exhaustion, commonly known as burn out. This experience spurred me on to start my own business with Prash Patel and a mutual friend who both shared the same interest in nutrition. That’s when we met Charlotte Watts, a gem in the industry, who came on board as our head Nutritionist.
Together we started a bespoke nutrition business, which was way ahead of its time. A number of high profile customers, including captains of industries and high-profile celebrities, became clients of our vitamin and mineral programs and that brought us a lot of publicity. As a direct result the demand for our service was greater than our production line could supply.
At the same time, Charlotte and I also discovered that due to new EU regulations we no longer complied with legislation so were forced to cease operation whilst we embarked and a long and expensive exercise to change our business model in order to be fully compliant again.
It wasn’t easy to restart especially as after a couple years of developing the business, and building the proprietary technology that drives our service, we were devastated by the recession just as we launched.
However, I was undeterred. I knew my destiny was still calling and my passion for nutrition, and the way food had impacted my life had grown so after a few years of unrest I went ahead again. I always believed that personalised nutrition is what people need so we developed new, expert partnerships and here we are today with www.mynutriprofile.com… a bespoke nutrition and lifestyle service offering you your very own personalised nutrition, dietary and lifestyle report.
