My symptoms were severely affecting my daily life - I was in pain and extremely nauseous for much of the day every day, fatigued and with an unpredictable pattern of urgently needing the loo.
I couldn’t work as normal and on many days struggled to leave the house. Thanks to Sarah, I was able to pinpoint the specific cause of my symptoms and with her support, I have achieved a massive reduction in symptoms and am able to enjoy the activities I love again (and enjoy an unrestricted diet without fear of food!).
The information available online about digestive conditions is often contradictory and confusing, and Sarah really cuts through all the noise to provide a clear sense of what the issues are and how to address them, in a way that is specifically tailored to your health and circumstances as an individual. It is no exaggeration to say that working with Sarah has given me my life back - thank you so much Sarah!!
I FIRST CAME TO SARAH AFTER BEING SENT AWAY FROM THE NHS WITH ONLY A VAGUE IBS DIAGNOSIS AND A 15 MONTH WAIT TO SEE A SPECIALIST.

"You have given me confidence. With your guidance I have learnt that I can eat without fear of what might happen. I don’t need to be scared of food. I am eating meals with the family and have started eating the same foods as them. I have started to go out of the house more, eating out for the first time in years, I have even been away with my husband. Something I never dreamed I would be able to do. My bloating and pain has gone from a 9/10 to 3/10 in just 3 months. I can’t remember the last time I had reflux. I am looking forward to seeing what happens in the next 3 months of working with you".

MY STORY STARTS QUITE A FEW YEARS AGO, WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE THE HEALTHIEST OF LIFESTYLES.
"I had bad breath and bloating, and then psoriasis, amongst other symptoms. I went to see my doctor and was given quick fixes for each individual issue but no long term solution.
​
After the first appointment I felt very positive. Sarah recommended that I take a digestive test to find out exactly what was wrong with me. I went ahead with the test and I am so glad I did because it gave me great peace of mind and now 3 months down the line I am finally on the home stretch to getting my health back and enjoying food and life again.”

"I have a better understanding of my body now. I know what is happening and how to balance my digestive system. I was struggling with stomach pain and bloating, and these symptoms have almost gone, after only 3 months!
After working with Sarah for 3 months I have lost weight, and I am wearing a size smaller jean. We made simple changes to my diet that are now part of my daily routine and habits. I now understand how to eat for my body, and I have learned how to eat healthily and find a good balance in my life.
My hormones are more balanced, my periods have settled down and are more regular. I feel much calmer, and like my body is working as it should. I feel better in my whole body! "
Lottie
"Working with Sarah has been a pleasure, she is such a 'sunny' person"
​​"I am looking at everything more holistically now, and I am much more mindful about the way I eat and the way I love my life. I feel more aware and much calmer.
Before my Nutrition programme with Sarah I struggled to know what I should and shouldn’t be eating. Now I feel confident about the foods I eat and I know their benefits.
I have learnt about foods that help feed the good bacteria in my gut, and I can feel the difference this has made. I now vary my food to nurture my gut!
I am less constipated and I get less stomach pain
I am much more mindful, I think about myself and I can put myself first. This is a big revelation for me. I know I do count! I feel really different after working with Sarah for the last three months".

“I am eating more vegetables than ever before. I used to be really scared of food because of my IBS and now I am eating foods that I didn’t even know existed!
I am also eating more proteins and am more conscious of what I am eating and why”
PAT
"I have gained a lot of confidence in every aspect of my life. I now have a varied diet, I have managed to get rid of my sugar addiction, I have reduced by constant bloating and cramping and have the energy to do the things I love like Zumba and hula hooping. I have lost weight and am excited about the new recipes I have learnt".
Katherine
"I first went to see Sarah after feeling sluggish, run down, tired and constantly bloated"
"As I sat in the chair I was hoping there would be some miracle pill to make me shift 10 pounds and to stop feeling so rubbish. A miracle pill there was not, but after an hour with Sarah, it opened my eyes to the world of nutrition and the benefits of eating well and taking the right supplements for your body and the positive effects that this can have.
Six months later I haven't looked back, yes I still have the occasional bloating but I'm now really aware of what food and drinks I am putting into my body. I have so much more energy and loving my new healthy lifestyle. Sarah is so knowledgeable and makes you feel completely at ease when discussing personal issues, I can't thank her enough for putting me on the right path."
KIM
“I signed up to one of Sarah’s programmes after a period of prolonged stress. I'd been feeling lethargic, my digestion was sluggish, I was suffering from heart burn, I'd not been eating particularly well and my body was feeling neglected.
We went right back to some nutritional basics, and built on those basics to start to rebuild some nutritional foundations that underpin health. The holistic and practical approach meant goals set from week to week were achievable, even in the midst of busy everyday life. Sarah focuses on implementing small, manageable changes, always offering compassion and understanding when life got in the way. Sarah offered gentle encouragement throughout the programme.
These small changes add up to massive health benefits, and I can honestly say I feel much improvement in my basic health and wellbeing. I also feel like I've barely scratched the surface of Sarah's knowledge and look forward to working with her as a health coach and digging deeper into gut health and working towards weaving that knowledge into my daily nutritional practice. Honestly, working with Sarah will bring positive change to your life! I can't recommend her highly enough!”

"My sessions with Sarah have been an immense help"
My sessions with Sarah have been an immense help. I have IBS, and my diet had become so restrictive and my symptoms so severe that had lost lots of weight, and had issues with my nutrition.
Sarah's sessions helped me see my condition in a new way, for example that what I was eating wasn't necessarily the issue, as much as my digestion. After my sessions, my symptoms are back to being mild, and my diet is far less restrictive.
Sarah explained everything to me clearly, and was very thorough. I felt supported in the process, and have only good things to say.
Eli
"I decided to see Sarah after months of reflux, bloating and indigestion"
"I was feeling exhausted and fed up with the restrictive diets I had been trying. I had cut out so many things to try to reduce my symptoms and I was worried that I wasn't getting the nutrients I needed from my diet. Sarah suggested we did a stool test, as well as a breath test to check if there was SIBO. The stool test showed I had a parasite, as well as an overgrowth of bacteria and yeast. The breath test showed I also had an overgrowth of bacteria in my small intestine. She explained how all of these things had been leading to the symptoms I was experiencing.
​
It was such a relief to finally understand why it had been happening. Sarah started me off on a diet to help reduce the bacteria, as well as a programme of supplements and lifestyle changes. My symptoms have reduced drastically, and I now have the confidence to eat a variety of foods again"
AMY
"After having my gallbladder out in 2017, my digestive system took a plummet and caused bloating, pain and awful cramps each day after every meal. My doctor prescribed many medications but nothing really helped so I was diagnosed with IBS!
After further abdominal surgery in 2000, my digestive issues were really getting me down and then I discovered Brighter Nutrition, help at long last. Sarah Cox is an amazing lady, so supportive and knowledgeable, she has been my rock for the last few months, I am now eating foods that were impossible to digest before, she has also helped me to look at them for their health properties too. With a few digestive aids that she has added and her continuing care and support my journey is looking so much brighter and positive."
PAT
"Sarah is a very kind, professional, approachable and knowledgeable nutritionist and coach. She really looks at your needs, your lifestyle helps you make small, sustainable choices over time which all add up to help you reach your goal.
​
I had a specific issue (a recent diagnosis of osteoarthritis) as well as a more general one (to lose weight and to gain energy) and Sarah helped me with my health goals by suggesting the right foods & supplements as well as conversations to have with my GP. Sarah gently steered me whilst empowering me with the right tools. I feel positive, motivated, more confident and closer to teaching my goals.
If you’re looking for someone to provide you with the right framework and a tailored approach for you, I highly recommend Sarah".
OLGA
"Sarah has made a huge difference to my life. I was experiencing constant abdominal pain and bloating, which was making me feel generally unwell and fed up.
​
After arranging some diagnostic tests, Sarah has been recommending supplements to aid digestion and balance gut bacteria, as well as giving me lots of advice about changes to my diet. She has also helped me to create a wellness vision, giving me a goal to work towards and the encouragement to achieve it.
As a result, my symptoms have greatly reduced, my quality of life has improved and my get-up-and-go has returned.”
ISOBEL
"We saw Sarah for our 9-year-old daughter who had been suffering with severe constipation for many years.
Sarah is a very approachable, passionate person, and demonstrated complete empathy, understanding and awareness of our daughter’s condition.
We were able to have an opportunity to have comprehensive stool specimens taken, and a thorough analysis created by Sarah. This was very informative and identified to us that it was a case of altering her diet, which in turn proved to be successful.
The fortnightly meetings via zoom over 3 months kept us in check, and ideas, thoughts, recommendations were provided within each meeting.
I would definitely recommend Sarah and would not hesitate to liaise with her again if required!
With a wealth of information she provides, she is a great person to know"!
