Hi There

I am Debbie Gallimore

I’m Debbie Gallimore, a Registered Nutritionist in Manchester.
My culinary upbringing lacked a maternal figure, often featuring frozen and highly processed meals. In my teenage years, I formed an emotional connection with sugary treats. The more I tried to shed pounds by dieting and excluding certain food groups, the stronger my cravings became. I found myself trapped in a cycle of bingeing and purging that seemed impossible to break free from. Does this sound familiar?

In my twenties, I embarked on a career as an operational manager at a prominent blue-chip company. It was during this period that my greatest passion took root—coaching and supporting individuals. I cherished my job, but balancing the demands of corporate life with raising a young family proved challenging. Overworked, time-starved, and neglecting my own well-being, I made the decision to study nutrition, both to improve my own health and to channel my coaching skills into an area close to my heart.

The juggling act of work, study, and caring for my two young children took a toll. Burnout symptoms began to surface, but I pushed through, ignoring the signs. Eventually, I received a diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency (commonly referred to as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) and an autoimmune condition known as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. My immune system was attacking my thyroid, leaving me unbalanced, fatigued, mentally foggy, and battling weight gain.

A Journey of Resilience and Transformation

Navigating Health Challenges to Empower Others

My understanding of functional testing and hormones became invaluable as I navigated a complex healthcare journey, filled with doctor appointments, specialist consultations, and visits to endocrinologists over a four-year period. There were moments when I felt lost, fearful, and isolated, but I had a thriving nutritional business and two incredible children who depended on me. With unwavering determination, I fought my way back to health, harnessing my knowledge of nutrition, hormones, and lifestyle medicine. Today, I can express gratitude for my own health challenges and experiences, as they have deepened my capacity for connection and compassion with my patients. Additionally, I’ve gained a profound understanding of how hormones significantly influence our day-to-day well-being.

In 2018, I continued to advance my nutritional qualifications, culminating in the successful completion of my Functional Medicine Certification in the Application of Functional Medicine. Collaborating with GPs, consultants, and Nutritional Therapists, I pioneered an approach that prioritizes the individuality of each patient in addressing symptoms, diseases, and chronic health conditions.
