A Healthy Workforce Makes for a Productive Workforce
According to the World Health Organisation, 60% of an individual’s health and quality of life is due to lifestyle behaviours.(1)
Simple changes to diet & lifestyle can have a dramatic impact on physical and mental wellbeing and reduce an individual’s risk of developing chronic illnesses such as diabetes, cardio-vascular disease and depression.(2)
Nutrition and lifestyle are a critical and often overlooked aspect of building resilience and improved performance at work.
Beth Hughes Nutrition can plan and deliver programmes or individual sessions covering a variety of wellness topics, tailored to your organisation's requirements.

“I have personally found these sessions very informative and have shared much of the information with friends who have expressed envy as their employers have not been as generous with raising awareness or being sympathetic to their needs.”

THE ULTIMATE IN PERSONALISED NUTRITION
Nutrigenomics is an exciting new science which explores the interaction between nutrition and genes, with a view to improving or preventing disease, optimizing health and supporting resilience. It really is the ultimate in personalised nutrition!
Each of us is unique. Variations in our genome (DNA) contribute to our individuality and can have significant impacts on our life and health. Whilst your genetic code is fixed, gene expression (activity) can be modified by diet and lifestyle.
By analysing our genetic make-up, we can better understand how our DNA may be contributing to our health and performance. We can then put in place evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle change to optimise our function and mitigate future health risks.
Programme features:
- Cutting edge DNA analytics from Lifecode Gx, only available through trained practitioners
- 1:1 debrief: Nutrigenomics consultation with personalised recommendations for each participant
- 2 x group sessions
- Groups of 4-10
- Delivered stand alone or as a module in your existing leadership programme
- £970 pp (based on a group of 10)
