Kate Troup Naturopath
Last week I met Kate Troup, a lovely Naturopath who works out of the Mr Vitamins shop at Chatswood. Kate and I are creating on a low sugar food bar recipe for her to help people lose weight. We had a lot to agree on. We are both appalled by what euphemistically passes for food that is on the supermarket shelves. I had to laugh when she says she looks in people’s trolleys and she is tempted to pick things out and tell them the destructive nature of what is in them – I am the same! http://www.bondibeachdiet.com
