ABOUT DC NUTRITION
Feel better. Think better. Perform better.
​
Have you received a diagnosis of ADHD and looking at ways to manage it more naturally? It may be your ADHD that has driven your anxiety, and poor eating habits and is partly the reason you are burnt out. Understanding WHY you are feeling the way you are is my first aim. I love exploring the link between the neurodivergent brain and gut health because the two are so intertwined.
Feeling low or having suboptimal health is not normal, and you shouldn't accept it.
​
Mental health is complex, it's not as simple as a lack of happy hormones. Years of research have helped us understand that mental health has genetic and environmental components. You may have a genetic predisposition to depression or anxiety, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you will get it, or that that is the sole reason for your poor mental health. The environment has a large role to play, and this is made up of diet, lifestyle and stressors.
​
I love to explain how our bodies work and uncover why you may be feeling the way you are - getting to the root cause of your symptoms. Once we understand these we can together work on a nutrition, supplement and lifestyle plan to help get you feeling better than you do today. ​​​

How can nutritional therapy help?
There is so much conflicting information about our health. Nutritional Therapy should be your first point of call when you have concerns about symptoms that are, or aren't being managed with medication.
Poor Mental Health?
If you are concerned about the changes in your mood, behaviour or thinking it might be worth looking at the nutrients you are putting in your body.
Digestion Problems?
Experiencing bloating, indigestion, new intolerances to food, changes in your appetite or irregular bowel functions a nutritional therapist could help.
Mood Swings?
Poor nutrition can easily lead to constant mood swings, a lack of motivation, be quick to irritability and more mood focused issues.
Difficulty Sleeping?
If you are noticing issues in your sleep from difficulties in getting to sleep to interrupted or unrefreshing sleep, then get in touch for further discussions.
Immune Illnesses?
Work on recovery from frequent infections, lingering illnesses and repeated respiratory and/or stomach bugs.
Hormonal Concerns?
Get support on any hormonal, and reproductive symptoms you may be experiencing from painful/irregular periods, to menopausal symptoms.

helping you care for your mental health
I am Dana Chapman, founder of DC Nutrition. My aim is to offer scientific, evidence-based advice. Helping you discover how your body works and helping you achieve vibrant health today and in the future.

It's not just about food.
The Gut Brain axis is paramount in governing ADHD symptoms and how we feel, we eat well we feel good, we feel bad we eat poorly. It is not as simple as that, and nutritional therapy is only part of the answer. I am able to combine not only nutritional therapy but also elements of mental health wellbeing, exercise, NLP and much more.
