Client Testimonial

“Working with Lucy was not a regimented diet plan, it was about becoming aware of how foods affect our body and being held accountable for what I eat. I would highly recommend Lucy to anyone who wishes to get healthier through better eating.”
Benjamin, Cork

"URRU was looking for a good communicator with a passion for food and a knowledge of nutrition and who could translate nutritional informational into meaningful, appealing messages for our shoppers. We found the perfect match with Lucy"
Ruth Healy, URRU Culinary Store

Food and Health Education Articles


WOW, I write a lot! As I have put education as the main focus of my business, I write as much as possible on the role of food in our health. I try to encourage people to try new ingredients or to check out my healthy recipes. Nutrition isn’t something for books, its there everyday, in our meals and snacks!
