I am Korina and some of you may already know me by blog www.thesauchalife.com<\/a> where I started journaling back in 2016 my transition to a healthy, wholesome, nutritionally rich plant based lifestyle. A bit earlier than that I started studying Nutritional Therapy at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London, where I was living at that time. In April of the same year I got diagnosed with Stage 4 Non Hodgkins Lymphoma, a type of blood cancer. Being a cancer patient under standard oncology care made me realise the knowledge deficit of the standard oncology\/ haematology medical community on how nutrition and lifestyle interventions can support the cancer diagnosis, which surely helped me a lot during my cancer journey. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\"\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Once finishing my nutritional therapy studies I specialised on cancer support doing post graduate studies with dr Nina Fuller Shavel, who has been my mentor all those years, following her Systems approach to cancer framework. This framework is based on the Functional medicine<\/a> Institute model, aiming to identify the systems under stress leading to the root cause of the disease and subsequently to an individualised patient center nutritional and lifestyle protocol. Although I work with a wide range of cancers I am specialised in adult haematological malignancies and breast cancer. I have a wide range of experience on supporting lymphoma, leukemia, multiple myeloma and more rare myelodysplastic syndromes such as Polychythemia Vera and Essential Thrombocythemia. I am also a member of the award winning Synthesis Clinic<\/a> in London, where I work one day a week with clinic blood and breast cancer patients. I am an active member of BANT (British association of Nutritional therapists)<\/a> and Society for Integrative Oncology (SIO)<\/a> which safeguard that my work is guided by the highest professional standards and latest scientific evidence. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

My practice follows the disciplines of Functional medicine model<\/a> and I a certified BANT (British association of Nutritional therapists)<\/a> practitioner in cancer support (NTEC certified). My approach to cancer is steeped in the disciplines of Integrative Oncology<\/a> ie. integrating lifestyle, exercise, relaxation and other holistic approaches (such as yoga and acupuncture to name a few) in supporting the quality of life of cancer patients.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In addition to cancer, I also support patients with complex, chronic health issues such as gastrointestinal issues (irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease ie. Chronn\u2019s disease and ulcerative colitis, GERD, chronic gastritis etc), hormonal imbalances, cardiovascular issues (metabolic syndrome, hypercholesterolaemia, NAFLD) and weight loss. Other special interests: I have a bachelor degree in psychology and recently I completed my training with the National Centre for Eating Disorders<\/a>, being certified with the Advanced skills Diploma in supporting nutritionally patients with eating disorders. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
