Karen is a retired intensive care nurse, nutritionist, advocate for plant-based eating, author and recipe developer.
She was diagnosed with MS in March 2016 after several bouts of severe optic neuritis. She feels very fortunate to have been aware of Overcoming MS through a work colleague and adopted the Program straight away. Already eating a whole-food plant-based diet, she soon learnt the importance of the other six pillars in managing her health and is very happy that she remains well and active.
Karen has created and run her own courses in whole-food plant-based eating and loves teaching people to cook amazingly tasty food that just happens to be good for health. She published her first book in 2019 and has a second coming out in 2025.
Karen is mum to two young adults and lives in rural Mid-Devon with her husband. Keen travellers, they love exploring the UK and Europe in their campervan.
