PERSONAL NUTRITIONIST
ANA PEREIRA PURI
I have always been driven by a genuine interest in people's wellbeing and a desire to improve health in a meaningful, lasting way.
My background is in science. I hold a PhD in psychiatric genetics, where I developed a deep understanding of how closely mental health and overall wellbeing are connected.
I then spent 15 years working in cancer research, focusing on developing therapies that use the immune system to target tumours.
Seeing this work progress into the clinic, and interacting with patients, reinforced my belief in evidence-based practice and its real impact on people's lives.
Over time, my focus shifted from population-level medicine to the individual. Because daily choices - what we eat, how we live - shape real outcomes.
PURENERGY Nutrition was created with that purpose.
WHY NUTRITION ?
Nutrition has always been a personal interest, but also one of the most powerful tools we have to support both physical and mental health.
What I saw was this: The science is strong, but the application is often missing. People are given information. But not clear, practical ways to apply it in real life.
That is where my work sits.
WHAT I DO NOW ?
Today, I combine scientific knowledge with practical nutrition guidance to help you:
- Feel more energised
- Build consistent habits
- Improve your health in a way that fits your life
Everything is tailored to you, your routine, your preferences and your goals. Because there is no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition.
WOMEN'S HEALTH FOCUS
I work with both, Men and Women. However, I do have a strong interest in women's health.
Women are not one-size-fits-all. Nutritional needs change across the menstrual cycle and through different life stages, including perimenopause and menopause. This is still often overlooked.
There is a growing need for clear, evidence-based support that helps women understand their bodies and adapt their nutrition in a practical way. This is an area I am continuing to develop and integrate into my work.
If this sounds like what you need, I'd love to chat. Just leave a message.
