She is an active member of The South African Society for Integrative Medicine (SASIM) and works as a health coach, online educator, consultant and speaker focusing on topics including Food as Medicine, Gut Health, Childhood Nutrition, ‘Free-From’ Feeding, Nutrient-dense Foods, Picky Eating and Primary Food.

Catherine believes that food can be the “best form of medicine or the slowest form of poison” and she is on a mission to inspire, enable and empower parents to optimally nourish their children and themselves. She sees her and her daughter’s food intolerances as a blessing which has led them down a path of learning, discovery and good health – which will hopefully stand

them in good stead for years to come.
