Naturopathic Nutritional Therapist Specialising in: Digestive Health, Women's Hormone Balance, Clean Diet & Lifestyle

I’m Katie Poyasov — a BANT-registered naturopathic nutritionist (BSc Hons, DipCNM, mANP, rCNHC) and “The Clean Nutritionist.” I help women across the UK and internationally uncover the root causes of these connected drivers of poor health: an imbalanced gut, fluctuating hormones, and unstable blood sugar. When these three systems come back online, the things you really want — energy, clearer skin, calmer digestion, stable mood, fewer cravings, healthy weight, lower inflammation, stronger immunity, and the kind of long-term healthspan that makes a longer life worth living — often follow.

Through a personalised combination of nutrition, lifestyle medicine and functional medicine testing (DUTCH, GI-MAP, organic acids, nutrigenomic DNA and food intolerance panels), I design a plan that fits your biochemistry, your symptoms and your life. No cookie-cutter diets. No symptom-suppression. Just a clear, science-led path back to feeling like yourself — and staying that way for the next 30 years.

How naturopathic nutrition addresses three important drivers of poor health

Most chronic complaints — bloating, fatigue, weight gain that won’t shift, mood swings, period problems, sleep that doesn’t refresh you, brain fog, recurring infections — share the same handful of root causes. They almost always trace back to one or more of these three systems being out of balance:

Your gut.

A disrupted microbiome, leaky gut barrier, low stomach acid or chronic low-grade inflammation in the digestive tract drives food intolerances, autoimmune flares, skin issues and even anxiety. The gut is also where 70% of your immune system lives and where many hormones are metabolised.

Your hormones.

Imbalances in oestrogen, progesterone, cortisol, insulin and thyroid hormones explain the majority of “I just don’t feel right” symptoms women experience in their 30s, 40s and 50s — PMS, perimenopause, PCOS, thyroid issues, adrenal fatigue, low libido, stubborn weight.

Your blood sugar.

Insulin resistance and glucose volatility are the silent driver behind energy crashes, sugar cravings, weight that won’t budge, hormonal acne, PCOS, fatty liver, and long-term risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline.

Naturopathic nutritional therapy works on all three at once — because they’re not separate systems. Stabilising blood sugar reduces inflammation in the gut. Supporting the gut improves hormone clearance. Balanced hormones improve sleep and insulin sensitivity. That’s why a root-cause approach delivers results where one-issue diet plans don’t.

And here’s the thing most people miss:

The same three systems that drive how you feel today are also the three biggest levers for how well you’ll be in 20, 30 or 40 years. Gut, hormones and blood sugar aren’t just a wellness story — they’re the foundations of healthspan and longevity. (More on that below.)

What clients are saying

“ Katie was thorough with her questions, kind with my daughter, very knowledgeable and organised but also very understanding of how difficult it is to introduce new options to such a small child. We saw results after only a few months of following Katie’s advice and now my daughter can be exposed to foods that were problematic in the past but without any symptoms. I can’t recommend Katie enough and thank her for everything she has done for us! ”

Iphigenia

“ I had a great experience with Katie, she helped me find what the root cause was and worked with me to heal it. She’s knowledgable, she knows what she’s talking about and she takes her time to explain the matter and educates you on how your body works. ”

A.K.

“ I’ve been struggling with Ulcerative Colitis for over 10 years. I also have trouble with indigestion symptoms especially in the night which disturbed my sleep. For the last month I have been following Katie’s protocols and have improved immensely! Just a few tweeks to my diet and some amazing supplements have improved my digestion and sleep! Together we are continuously working on my autoimmune problems and I am so happy with the progress! ”

Longevity

Longevity-led nutrition: why I work the way I do

Longevity isn’t about living longer — it’s about staying functional, energetic, sharp and well for the years you do live. What scientists call healthspan: the proportion of your life spent in good health, not just alive. 

The same three systems that drive your day-to-day energy, mood, weight and digestion — gut, hormones, blood sugar — are also the three biggest levers for healthspan. Stable blood sugar protects cardiovascular health, cognitive function and metabolic resilience.

A diverse microbiome supports immunity, mood and inflammation control. Balanced hormones protect bone density, brain health and sleep architecture across decades. Get those three working, and you don’t just feel better next month — you protect the version of yourself you want to be at 60, 70, 80.

That’s why every protocol I design is built with both the next 6 months and the next 30 years in mind.
