UTI & IC Support

Are you looking for support with recurrent UTIs?

Welcome to Nourishing Insights. We are a virtual Nutritional Therapy and Functional Medicine Practice based in the United Kingdom. Our team of Nutritional Therapists have trained with Internationally renowned  Ruth Kriz, a US-based Nurse Practitioner and chronic UTI/IC  specialist whose research spans 40 years following her own experience and complete recovery from IC.  We are experienced in supporting clients with recurrent UTIs/Interstitial Cystitis and the gut, vaginal, nervous system and hormonal health challenges that often go with them. 

  • Have you had one UTI after another for as long as you can remember?
  • Maybe you've been on long term antibiotics?
  • Feeling symptomatic but are being told your standard urine culture was negative so there's nothing that can be done?
  • You know there's something more to it but you're feeling lost and don't know what to do next?
  • Do you feel like you're not being listened to?

We're here to help. We take a functional medicine approach, looking at your health as a whole, assessing the triggers and drivers and finding the root cause. If you've been searching for someone to help you navigate testing and relevant support for your recurrent UTI/IC , and help rebalance your gut flora after long term antibiotic use, we offer targeted individualised support.

We know recurrent UTI is a complex issue and it takes time and very often a lot of detective work to reach symptom resolution and recovery.


Our clinical Lead Beverley Sarstedt now lectures on this complex therapy area and has been invited to speak at National Conferences in London. As the first clinic in the UK to offer this service we  are privileged to share this knowledge with patients and health practitioners and also offer a mentoring service to other health practitioners such as NT's and GP's wishing to offer this functional medicine approach. 
Beverley is assisted by our very talented and able Nutritional Therapist and FM practitioner Neleta Winter who has also trained with Ruth Kriz. When you book with our clinic you will work with either Beverley or Neleta both of whom have ongoing training with Ruth Kriz and work with clients all over the world.

What's included in the UTI packages?

Our comprehensive UTI packages have been designed to give you a high level of support during those all important first few weeks working with the practice. For those who require more regular contact in the first 3 months, a small number of intensive packages are available. More details below. 

The standard package includes:
Initial Consultation 
  • ​Functional Medicine online questionnaire and analysis prior to appointment
  • Full consultation (1hr 30min - 2hours)
  • Comprehensive report with dietary advice, supplementation and testing recommendations
  • Access to a comprehensive range of supportive documents

2 x 30min Follow-up Consultations
  • Assess and review nutritional protocol with recommendations
  • Review initial test results
  • Make any further recommendations
Experience has taught us that clients feel more supported with regular contact in the first few weeks as they often have questions or symptom changes that need to be reviewed. Therefore, the first follow up will be booked 2 weeks after the initial consultation and the second 2 weeks following.

(Or 1 x 60min follow up if required, this is on a case by case basis).

Ongoing support from the team by email during office hours for the first 4 weeks.

Testimonials



"It was by chance I found Nourishing Insights whilst researching Interstitial Cystitis (IC) on the liveutifree site. I came across the Ruth Kriz videos which was the first time an explanation of this condition had made sense in the 13 years I'd been living with it. I had been told 'its incurable, you just have to manage the symptoms' and here was Ruth explaining that it can actually be treated. I remember saying to myself 'this is who I need to treat me!' When I found out Nourishing Insights worked with Ruth it was a no brainer. 

When I came off of the discovery call with Beverley, I was in tears - happy tears! Finally someone understood IC/recurrent UTIs and how to treat them and it was then I had a hint of real hope of a better quality of life. 

I won't go into detail here on treatment specifics but am happy to talk to anyone that would like to hear about my experience. 
I started on the UTI package July 2022 and thanks to the  testing, we have discovered multiple embedded infections (I had tested not long prior to this at the GP and with a well known UTI specialist both of whom came back with a negative test). Finally I could see the root cause of years of pain. Each time I'm treated for an embedded infection the better my bladder feels and a step closer I am to being symptom free. My journey continues but I have gone from having flares once or twice a month to twice a year. I have my life back thanks to both Beverley and Neleta and can get through most days without having to think about my bladder and for anyone that has IC/recurrent UTIs you'll understand how significant that is. 

Neleta and Beverley
are amazing and very supportive. Their knowledge is incredible and they come at treating UTIs from a scientific way through specialist testing alongside nutritional therapy always supporting the gut microbiome throughout which is so very important after the lifetime of antibiotics I've had in the past. I cannot express how truly grateful I am that I found them."
Kerri, Cornwall

“Watching a YouTube  ‘Live UTI Free’  interview with Beverley has been life-changing for me.
I had chronic uti infections for very many years with the consequent pain, lack of sleep and disruption to daily life. The usual NHS protocols just didn’t work. I didn’t get proper tests and I became intolerant of the standard antibiotics, which didn’t clear the infections anyway.
I lost faith I’d ever feel well again and I started looking into alternatives. Taking the functional nutrition route with Beverley has been remarkable, both for my bladder and my general health. Her knowledge, patience and calm assurance has worked wonders.
I sincerely thank Beverley and Ruth Kriz for their commitment and ongoing research, it is life-changing.”
Jane, Yorkshire
