A personalised plan based on your health questionnaire responses and the optional blood & urine test, will be implemented for the first month and explained during the first consultation. Your plans are designed to be nutritionally adequate for you, your goals and health condition(s). We will periodically adapt the plans depending on chosen health goal (see below) and targets achieved. Throughout the weeks ahead, consultations will cover many aspect of nutrition and weight loss strategies, required to support your progress.

Chose a health goal
Apart from weight loss, chose one main health area of concern to improve by the end of the programme:
1) Reduce cholesterol / triglycerides
2) Reduce blood pressure
3) Reduce blood sugar levels
4) Increase energy / reduce fatigue
5) Reduce bloating / gastrointestinal symptoms

Flexibility
Although the programme start and end dates are flexible, you cannot pay for the autumn programme and decide you want to start in 2025 as conditions and fees will be different for 2025 – doing so could incur additional fees. You will be fully supported to succeed throughout the 9 weeks. Whatever challenges you may be experiencing, the programme can adapt to help you overcome them, but does expect participants to be fully committed to change and accept some degree of accountability to follow the programme as required. Before commencing the programme, you would have had to: 1) complete payment, 2) complete a health & symptoms questionnaire, 3) complete the participation and consent form, 4) A blood / urine test (optional).

Blood / urines tests
Testing allows your personalised dietary and lifestyle recommendations be more meaningful for you, and helps me better understand your nutritional imbalances, enabling us to work more efficiently (and scientifically) to help rebalance these markers, safely loose weight, and improve any aspect of your health. An optional final test can be done at the end of the programme to understand your progress and further areas to address after the Xmas festivities. Enquire with me asap to book a blood draw appointment. Bloods / urine tests would need to be completed before starting the programme.

Personalised meals & recipes
Personalised meal plans and recipes ensures that apart from helping you achieve weight loss, they do not exacerbate any underlying health conditions and symptoms, while respecting your food preferences to help make the programme more enjoyable, although some individual compromises will need to be agreed on. You will explore new ways to improve the nutrient intake of the foods you consume, and may also help that of your family too.

Physical activity
Exercise and physical activity are good for just about everyone, including older adults. No matter your health and physical abilities, you can gain a lot by staying active. Inactivity is more to blame than age when older people lose the ability to do things on their own. Lack of physical activity also can lead to more visits to the doctor, more hospitalisations, and more use of medicines for a variety of illnesses. However, over and undertaining can be counterproductive, there is a delicate balance of diminishing returns. I will help you understand the science of how best to incorporate physical activity to suit your health goal and loose weight safely and effectively.

Goal setting & mental reframing
Setting robust but realistic goals helps strenghten your focus and determination to succeed. Every person creates their own map of the world or perception of reality based on their lived experiences, and as a result, they may have established their own unique mental filtering system for processing all the data being absorbed through all our five senses. Behaviour change is included in my programme and will help you embrace the necessary changes to achieve your goals.

Why is my weight loss programme different?
i have clinical exprience supporting clients with weight loss, but improve a number of other more complex health conditons. Additionally, other weight loss programmes may offer the same dietary & lifestyle recommendations for everyone, which means that a percentage of participants may benefit, whilst others may be left unfulfilled, especially if they have underlying health conditons which other providers are not qualified to tackle. This is where my clinical experience and Masters in Personalised nutrition can make a big difference to ensure you benefit from unique recommendations for you and your unique biochemistry. My objective is to ensure 100% of participants achieve their goals by maximising fat loss, preserve or increase muscle mass, improve their symptoms and blood markers, and know how to maintain these gains longer-term. This is critical for any older adult participants to avoid excessive muscle / bone loss. My plans are different and fully personalised to the individual.

Disclaimer & liability
As a fully qualified Nutritional Therapist, I am clinically trained, regulated, licensed and insured to support participants experiencing a wide range of complex health conditions. However, before commencing the programme, it is recommended that you disclose any allergies, diagnosed conditions & prescribed medications, and obtain approval from your medical healthcare provider that you are fit and capable to following a weight loss and lifestyle change regime. Signing up will be an acceptance from your part of all of the above and acknowledge that you participate at your own risk.

Testimonials
What are clients saying?

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (constipation dominant)

“I have been dealing with IBS for over twenty years and have suffered with chronic constipation, food intolerances, chronic gut pains, muscle & bone aches and pains, pins & needles on my extremities, excessive bloating & gas. I had seen a lot of specialists throughout the years but only helped a little bit, which was affecting my mental wellbeing. Although a bit skeptical at first, I came to see Andrew as last resort due to positive experiences from Facebook. The transformation has been life-changing to the point that most of my gut symptoms have resolved, regular bowel movements, no pins & needles, feeling much more energetic, and simply doing things I just could not do before. My GP and gastroenterologist are very pleased and encouraged me to continue Andrew’s recommendations. Thank Andrew for your help, really appreciated.”

Chronic constipation

I have attended Mr. Fortuna's clinic on several occasions and I have found him to be very attentive and caring.  He tries hard to understand your symptoms and find a solution to your problem. His advice was very useful and I won't hesitate to consult him in future for further assistance if required.

Nature Therapy

Our Nature experience was brilliant from start to finish. Andrew is very knowledgeable on the subject and he is keen to share his passion. He took took us to excellent locations, even the coffee stops.

Eczema

After years of poor diet and a period of stress, I had a break out of eczema. 'Chronic' was the prognosis of more than one doctor but for all their knowledge, the one thing they couldn't give me is time often given in a rush. A local dermatologist had no long-term solutions. But after some intelligent analysis from Andrew the issue improved. 5 months later, I'm sold on a new, healthier lifestyle. Andrew offered a break from all of that by taking a deep-dive into my health, before crashing out of the surface clasping a pearl - the solution. A thorough questionnaire and a blood test presented him with a complete picture of my health, for which he tailored dietary and lifestyle recommendations...that worked! With Andrew, you can be sure his mind isn't on the next patient. If I had to describe Andrew's service in three words: holistic, competent, slick. He helped me get on top of a skin-issue by looking at the big picture of my health, instead of plastering the cracks - and above all, through an exceptional attention to detail that you won't get from any GP. I can't recommend him highly enough and  his long-term programmes!

Chronic migraines, fatigue, bloating

Type 2 Diabetes

Very thorough and easy to follow. Proud to be associated with you. I would recommend you to anyone. Eternally grateful for keeping my diabetes in check

J. Gonzalez

Digestion, blood pressure, hypothyroidism, overweight

I thought that because I was getting older, weight gain was something I had to accept. I was also having problems with my digestive system, blood pressure, hypothyroidism and lack of sleep. But then, I met Andrew, a true professional, who is teaching me to make small adjustments in my eating habits. A lifestyle plan, not a diet, which is easy to follow, keeps the weight off and helps with my health problems. Andrew, I cannot thank you enough. This is life changing, and I am over the moon with my progress. With your motivation and guidance, I am happpier, healthier, very positive and losing weight. I am very grateful for your support. Thank you.
