Restoring Taste and Smell
RightFood4U - Success Stories - Taste and Smell - Nutrition Programmes - Bray Wicklow Dublin

G. came to see me because she had lost all her sense of taste and smell. While it was only annoying at first, one day she accidentally served rotten chicken to her daughter. She knew then, she needed to do something about it.

Out of options

Unfortunately, there’s no pill than can be taken for it, so her GP was limited in how they could help. G. came to me for help.

I didn’t know if I could help right away, but I knew loss of sense of smell can be a sign of Zinc deficiency. Naturally, G. was very sceptical about whether the kind of food she ate could have anything to do with her condition, but she agreed to give it a go as she had no other option.

Identifying the issues

From asking her a few questions, I identified other digestive issues which all suggested nutrient deficiencies. As she could no longer taste her food anymore either, her diet was quite simple. G. was eating only for “fuel”.

Together, we cleaned up G.’s diet, moving away from processed and sugary food, towards more real, healthier foods.

Noticing the difference

Within a short period of time, G. started to notice a small difference. This gave her the motivation to keep going.

This is what G. wrote in her testimonial for me:

“Going to Ilona and Right Food 4U was possibly the best thing I could ever have done!”

Ilona has helped me to change my eating habits which has not only helped me to get my sense of smell and taste back but it has also made me feel great! 

Ilona is a fantastic role model, her advice is practical and effective and investing in myself and my body has been the best investment that I could have ever made! 

Thank you Ilona!”

Eating the right foods is so powerful

Food is so much more than just calories and fuel. You need to feed your body the right nutrients that it needs to function properly.

G. did my 4-week Reboot program.

Do you often ask yourself “WHY am I doing this at all?”

Do you often ask yourself “WHY am I doing this at all?”

By coincidence, I met someone who was training in Nutritional Therapy and she needed a guinea pig. She quickly identified what I was doing that drained my energy. I would never have thought of looking at food as I was not eating junk food at all and thought I was eating reasonably healthy. But a few changes changed my life – for the better! And they were easy to implement once I understand the “why”, and she also helped with the “how”.
These changes were so profound that I felt I need to share this information with my friends who were going through similar symptoms. (BTW, I know now that I was in peri-menopause, but nobody spoke about this back then!) I studied Health Coach, and went on to Nutritional Therapy (4 year course).

I wanted to become that one person that can change the whole live of someone else for the better!

I often get the reply “But life is too short to give up sugar” or “Life’s no fun without the sweet things” or “Isn’t it boring not to eat any sugar at all?” I used to ask those questions myself years ago, but that was when I was actually still addicted to sugar, but...
