Gwen studied Nutritional Therapy after completing a Masters in Food Science, Technology and Nutrition in 2007, wanting to learn more about personalised nutrition. Having graduated from the Institute of Health Sciences in 2015, Gwen set up Gwenright Nutrition alongside working for IHS for 7 years, first as a personal tutor and then as a lecturer and clinic mentor, the roles which also tie into Gwen’s other passion: education. Gwen’s teaching experience spans not only NT and related physiology, body systems and functional medicine, but languages (English & German) as well as horse riding and orienteering skills.
Gwen’s main lecture areas included female hormones and immune dysfunction, as well as chronic conditions like RA and ME/CFS and Long COVID, macro & micronutrients and longevity. In her own clinic Gwen focuses on women’s health and family nutrition, with particular focus on helping mothers thrive in motherhood and in perimenopause. "One woman at a time" is her motto, as helping one woman live a healthier and more empowered life affects everybody she lives with, cares for and loves.
In 2025 Gwen started focusing on neurodivergence and has completed a certification in Neurodivergent Awareness in Coaching. She is currently working through a course called Clinical Excellence in functional medicine: autism, ADHD & beyond with Dr Jess Armine in the Nutrition Collective.
Gwen also loves public speaking and does a range of talks locally for Local Link Cork, The Caha Centre and was a speaker at the EmpowerHer Menopause event in 2025, as well as a panelist for Herology October 2025.
