The Nutri Centre Nutritionist Diane watched this seminar for you and shared her expert opinions:
"In this talk, Yaeli aims to simplify this ancient practice for beginners as it can be complex for many. She focuses on one of the most important areas of the body – the digestive system. If digestion is well balanced then better health all round can be achieved.
She explains about how people can be fitted into different categories and therefore certain herbs and foods may help to heal them – while some foods may be unsuitable for them. This is a different concept to western nutritional and herbal medicine. For example, butter may be more healing for one person and less healing for another.
At Nutri Centre we stock the entire range of Pukka herbs and their other nutritional range – to include aloe vera, coconut butter and neem oil – to name a few."
"Yaeli Stern BSc (Hons) travelled in India for the first time at the age of 19. Following this trip she encountered ill health and as a result searched for alternative and healthier lifestyle options. When discovering Ayurveda she felt an affinity to this ancient science and her deep connection with it began.
Since then Yaeli has studied and practiced Ayurveda both in India and the UK. Her main areas of expertise and interest are women's health, including menstrual disorders, menopause and obstetrics, digestive health, stress and stress related disorders.
She is currently completing her MSc in Ayurvedic Medicine in London and practices privately in Forest Row."
