Afifah Hamilton Cert Phyt, MNIMH, ITEC

Afifa Hamilton is an

experienced herbalist whose attention recently turned towards

gaining a better understanding of metabolism, and this

has significantly altered her approach. In the past decade the pace

of research in this field has increased markedly, and herbalists are now in a

position to adjust their advice in line with this powerful new understanding

(and it isn’t through supplements!). Using this important knowledge she has

successfully treated many patients including a 15 year old newly diagnosed

type1 diabetic who is now causing her consultant to scratch her head in wonder!

On three occasions Afifah has been invited to present her work to doctors at

her local hospital, where she attends weekly GP training sessions. She wants to

share this new information with her herbalist colleagues, so that they can make

even greater improvements to their patients’ health.

Afifa’s talk will be

Metabolic Dysfunction - a new look at common conditions and

how to readily improve things through diet. The emphasis will be on

obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, endocrinology, neurology, dementia,

and cancer.
