The TFN Difference
What we think truly makes a difference and what we love to do with our patients is to put together the ‘puzzle pieces’ to form a real understanding of the TRUE CAUSES of health issues.
Founder Maria Allerton experienced her own extensive health journey, consulting with numerous conventional and complimentary health practitioners along the way and never found somebody who really ‘got it’ and could see through all the test results, symptoms, emotions and history and put it all together.
She decided to become that practitioner and that is what she thrives on in her clinic work, and the foundations of which she built True Foods Nutrition around including the services, programs, team, and research.
Maria, Elizabeth, Toni and Scott have each had their own health journeys and this is what has made them truly empathetic and driven practitioners, dedicated to helping you restore your health.
We use nutrition as a RESTORATIVE & PREVENTATIVE medicine.
We adopt a functional medicine approach to restoring your health and well-being which includes an investigation into your health history, presenting symptoms as well as the use of the latest functional pathology testing to find the underlying root causes of many conditions.
This is a holistic, collaborative approach which focuses on addressing your diet, nutrients, genetics, mind and environment – not just symptoms.

By finding the TRUE causes that underlie your health conditions it is possible to address these with diet, supplements, detoxification strategies and lifestyle changes.
Our approach is not ‘go on this diet, work out your protein/carbs/fats and you’ll be ok’.
Our approach is a holistic, systematic, comprehensive and evidence based plan that will enable you to make significant changes in your health with our specialist team as your guide.
