I have a diploma in Photography and a diploma in nutritional therapy from ION. I am NOT a doctor of medicine nor do I have a PHD in any subject.

I am frustrated that you reply in a later thread with a link to “Dr Emma Wells website” your words – this is YOU adding to confusion that is not created by me and makes me very angry.

I was allowed to join the ABD because I requested it and they allowed me to – they know about my qualifications. The mistake on the website was theirs, if they had written that I was a dietician then they are wrong and this was not my responsibility. I see you have had my name removed, thats fine – I didn’t even know it was listed on a website I just used it as I sometimes get contacted by journalists.
If you have a problem with this take it up with them its nothing to do with me. They had this wrong not me – I know what I am thanks and have no reason to claim to be anything different.

I am a fully qualified nutritional therapist a member of the british association on nutrition and nutritional therapy and a member of the NTC – nutritional therapy council. I am crystal clear about my qualifications and have made no false claims.

Sadly, we don’t get any money from big pharma (both because of ethics, and because they’re not offering). If we had a pound for everyone who accused us of being in the pay of big pharma, though…

Now quite WHY should you be so pathetically obsessed with putting so much effort into attacking Patrick Holford (who in my experience has written some very fine things)? The answer is very simple. You are shills of big pharma which has been doing dirty tricks against nutrition for decades. Spending a million on funding liars is small change to them.
Now good riddance to your criminal filth.

Admin edit: Pundit brand equity is worth a lot of money, potentially both to the pundit and the newspaper that obtains relatively cheap content and some advertising money.
