breaking BAD
Best known for her work on one of the country’s fastest-selling books, The Real Meal Revolution, nutritional therapist Sally-Ann’s latest book, 63 Days to Optimum Health, is a homage to her own wellness journey and all she’s learnt.
As a child, Sally-Ann suffered from debilitating asthma and spent most of her formative years in bed or hospital. The older she got, the worse her health problems became. At one stage she was taking 17 scripted drugs, which, she believes, led to her forming a panic disorder that plagued her for 13 years.
She credits holistic medical doctor Robbie Simons with saving her life. The good doctor also suffered from asthma, but through better food choices and nutritional supplements he was able to overcome it. With his help, Sally-Ann weaned herself off all the medication she was on within a month, lost weight and started feeling better about herself. That was 26 years ago. Today, she’s made it her life’s work to study nutrition and spread her message of health and wellness.
The key is to eat ‘real’ food – foods that are non-processed, locally grown and sourced, and ethically produced.
