IANA PRIESTLEY / METHOD

How I work, in detail

Many people come to me after years of symptoms and separate attempts to address each problem. I look at the full picture: how digestion, hormones, metabolism, the nervous system and immune function interact, and which factors deserve attention first.

01

Before we meet: a detailed review

I study your detailed questionnaire, current symptoms and how they developed, available blood tests and reports, health history, medication and supplements, nutrition and lifestyle. In complex situations, a detailed personal history helps identify events and changes that preceded the symptoms.

02

The consultation: connecting the dots

We reconstruct the sequence of changes, including stressful events, hormonal shifts, infections, medication and changes in food or daily habits. We identify the main connections and agree on practical priorities rather than looking at one result or symptom in isolation.

03

Your personal written strategy

Your recommendations explain the overall picture and priorities. They cover nutrition, meal examples, supplements and their order of introduction, digestion, sleep, stress and daily habits where relevant, plus useful questions for further investigation.

04

Mentoring: applying and adjusting

Over three months, we review your response, changes in symptoms, new test results and any difficulties with the plan. The strategy is adapted as you progress. The frequency of calls and WhatsApp contact depends on the programme selected.

What I review

  • Detailed questionnaires
  • Symptoms and their timeline
  • Available laboratory results and reports

What health concerns do I work with?

My work connects nutrition, supplements and lifestyle with the person’s overall situation. These are the main concerns people contact me about.

01Gastrointestinal problems, dysbiosis, gastritis

Most problems begin in the gastrointestinal tract, and I have the tools needed to rehabilitate its function without resorting to medication. Here are some of the conditions that can be addressed in this way: gastritis, irritation of the mucous membranes, burning, digestive difficulties, gastroesophageal reflux, a feeling of heaviness, abdominal bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, irritable bowel syndrome, intestinal dysbiosis, candidiasis, parasitic infections, intoxication, vomiting, nausea and the formation of gallstones.

02Anaemia, hair loss, feeling cold

Anaemia cannot be definitively resolved simply by taking medication or iron supplements, because in most cases the main cause lies in inflammation and dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, when working with anaemia, I take a comprehensive approach to avoid increasing the inflammation associated with taking iron and prevent a future recurrence.
Anaemia is associated with symptoms such as chronic fatigue, hair loss, hypothyroidism, obesity, breathing difficulties, dizziness, feeling cold, memory problems and more.

03Difficulty losing/gaining weight

My work always focuses on a comprehensive, functional approach. We begin by identifying the cause that prevents weight loss or weight gain, then work to optimise the functioning of the body’s systems and make dietary changes to achieve the desired result.

04Hormonal fluctuations, libido, PCOS

I teach people how to change their lifestyle, nutrition and use of supplements to improve the health of those dealing with hormonal fluctuations, oestrogen dominance, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), low libido, mastopathy, testosterone deficiency (which can manifest as hair loss, depression, lack of motivation and energy), etc.

05Sleep problems, night waking, apnoea

Sleep problems are often related to adrenal fatigue and catabolic states. Therefore, we first look into the possible cause and then make lifestyle and dietary changes and add supplements to resolve the problem.

06Vitamin deficiencies, skin and hair problems

Most of the world’s population suffers from vitamin deficiencies without even realising it. Despite the abundance of food, the quality of ingredients is often very poor. Today’s vegetables, fruit, grains and legumes no longer contain the same levels of vitamins and minerals as they did centuries ago. Furthermore, the current diet is often based on foods with low nutrient density, rich in refined ingredients that bring no benefit to our bodies. As a specialist, I work comprehensively with my clients to ensure that the body receives the right amount of macro- and micronutrients and absorbs them correctly.

07Hypothyroidism, autoimmune thyroiditis

Hypothyroidism at the cellular level is one of the most common problems among my clients, and there are several actions that can be taken to resolve it without resorting to hormone replacement therapy. Autoimmune thyroiditis can also be reversible, and proper thyroid function can be restored. This requires commitment and ongoing work, but it is an achievable goal because I work with the body functionally to support all the systems that are struggling.

08Adrenal fatigue at different stages

I know this problem well because I experienced a difficult childhood and hunger. Over the years, the resources of our adrenal glands become depleted through chronic stress and nutrient deficiency. As time passes, we can no longer respond adequately to stress, we lose the strength to carry out normal daily activities, we are tired all day and no longer have the ambition or motivation to move forward and achieve our goals. Panic attacks may then develop because cortisol is no longer sufficient and adrenaline and noradrenaline come into play. The body can no longer manage inflammation, the immune system is exhausted and repeated episodes of infections and feeling unwell follow one another relentlessly. Yet it is possible and necessary to get out of this nightmare! And I know the way.

09Fatigue, dizziness, insomnia

Today, more and more people have low energy levels that are not enough even for daily activities, let alone physical activity or achieving their goals. Even adolescents often experience this problem, which prevents them from successfully completing their studies, because by the age of 16–18 they already feel tired and fatigued. By around the age of 30, most of the population faces various chronic conditions and symptoms that prevent them from living life to the full as they would have wished. Fatigue, dizziness, fainting, anxiety and panic attacks, and a lack of motivation for any activity are all symptoms with a biochemical basis in our body, but it is possible to restore vital energy and regain balance.
Life should be full of emotion and the desire to act, but sometimes our own body stands in our way. It is time to rediscover our vital energy and live life as we wish.

10Preparing for pregnancy

The birth of a child is a fundamental moment in the life of every couple. It is essential to prepare adequately for pregnancy, both for the mother and the father, so the child can receive the greatest possible resources from both parents and develop as well as possible, ensuring a solid foundation for health throughout life.
Parents must commit to nourishing themselves properly and addressing any chronic conditions or nutrient deficiencies, so they can provide their child with everything needed during development in the womb. Preparation for pregnancy should begin at least 6 months before conception.

11Metabolic problems, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes

In these conditions, the root of the problem often lies in an unhealthy lifestyle and poor nutrition. However, with appropriate dietary changes, the application of certain rules at mealtimes, the introduction of physical activity and the use of suitable supplements, it is possible to significantly improve carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, eliminating many symptoms and difficulties that stand in the way of living life as desired.

12Histamine intolerance, allergies and MCAS

Histamine is involved in the immune response, digestion and communication between cells, but when its breakdown is inadequate or its release is excessive, the overall picture requires an analysis that considers the different factors involved. Hives, itching, flushing, gastrointestinal symptoms, headaches and reactions to different foods deserve to be considered together with their history and accompanying factors.
In mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), mast cells release histamine and other mediators that affect several body systems at the same time. Histamine intolerance, allergies and MCAS are different conditions, even when some symptoms overlap.
My work focuses on reviewing the whole situation: nutrition, digestion, gut function, nutrient status, sleep, stress and the nervous system’s response. On this basis, I develop personalised nutrition and lifestyle support, with attention to individual tolerance and changes over time, in the context of specialist assessment and management.

01 / Nutrition

Nutrition, in your real life.

Food choices are considered alongside digestive tolerance, your routine and your priorities. The goal is a clear strategy you can put into practice, with meal examples rather than an abstract set of rules.

02 / Biochemistry

Biochemistry helps connect the picture.

Energy, digestion, hormonal regulation and the stress response are considered together. Your history and available results provide the context for deciding where to begin.
