	Manuela Malaguti Boyle BA, BHSc (Complementary Medicine); Adv. Dip Naturopathy; Adv. Dip Complementary Medicine in Functional Nutrition; Adv. Dip. Western Herbal Medicine; Post Grad. Dip. Nutrition (Mental Health). According to the principles of Nutritional Medicine, Manuela knows that nutrients and diet have considerably more medical applications than simply correcting nutrient imbalances. Nutrients and non-nutrient bioactive compounds can increase or decrease the levels of important chemicals in the body, reduce inflammation, influence hormonal balance, reduce levels of toxic elements/chemicals, improve immune function and reduce oxidative stress With a passion for better quality of life, Manuela’s professional help is focused on biochemical individuality: all humans are unique in terms of biochemistry, metabolism, anatomy and genetics. As a result, we differ in the way we process foods and have a unique set of chemical tendencies and nutrient needs. Manuela provides comprehensive Naturopathic health and lifestyle assessments which allows for the creation of individualized patient management programs. A staunch advocate of Naturopathy, Manuela attends both complementary and traditional medical conferences both in United Kingdom and Australia. She is a member of the General Council and Registry of Naturopath, UK (GCRN); Complementary Medicine Association (CMA); Australian Traditional Medical Society (ATMS) and the National Herbalist Australian Association (NHAA).
