My name is Elaine Lowden and I specialise in vegan and plant based nutrition. Due to practicing this type of diet combined with gaining professional qualifications in nutrition, BSc Applied Human Nutrition and MSc Exercise & Nutrition Science, I believe that I can empower each client to refine their diet to reduce the risk of a wide range of health conditions including; type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, based on scientific evidence and ultimately improving your health status long term.

Working within the higher education sector and in the field of research, I can apply evidence-based literature to justify the health benefits of the composition of key food groups, to gain optimum nutrition and achieve peak performance for each client, specific to their dietary goals.

I am currently working with athletes from cycling clubs and running clubs, facilitating nutrition themed seminars and conducting individual consultations for athletes, to meet their dietary and sporting goals.

Testimonials

I have known Elaine for many years and she is one of the most dedicated, enthusiastic promotors of nutrition and health I know.

Elaine demonstrated her ability to translate the evidence based nutritional guidelines into a more applied scenario when she lectured and taught at Queen Margaret University as part of the BSc (Hons) Nutrition programme.

I would fully support her business projects.
