Hi, I'm Emma Penrose (DipNT) - A Nutritional Therapist based in South-West France
Helping women embrace healthy aging, naturally
I work with women who want to feel more energized, balanced, and confident in their bodies, especially through their 40s, 50s, and beyond.
Maybe you’re noticing changes in your energy, digestion, hormones, or weight. Maybe you just don’t feel quite like yourself anymore. These shifts are common, but they’re not something you just have to “put up with.”
I use personalized nutritional therapy to help you understand what your body is telling you, and what it really needs to feel better. No extreme diets, no quick fixes, just practical, evidence-based support designed around you.
Although I’m in my 30s, my interest in healthy aging is personal. After four years of studying nutritional science and therapeutics, I’ve learned how much of our future health is shaped by what we do now. I want to feel strong, sharp, and well as I grow older, and I want that for my clients too.
Alongside supporting women through midlife transitions, I’m also trained to work with diagnosed conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypothyroidism, and other long-term health issues where nutrition can make a real difference.
I offer one-to-one consultations both online and in person (in southwest France). If you'd like to find out more about working together, let's chat. Book a free 15-minute discovery call to see if it's the right fit.

The European Commission has published data showing that, in 2022, the average life expectancy from birth, for women living in Europe, had increased to 83.3 years(1). However, the expected healthy life years for the same demographic was 62.8 years(2). That leaves over 20 years of potentially poor health! Of course, there are many factors that will have an effect throughout our lifetime, and whilst we can't change some of them (genetics, environment, socioeconomic status), there are, luckily, plenty of things we can work on that could make a big difference to our health as we age.
