We are ALL so very individualised…
Diet and lifestyle are like life. What works for one person almost certainly doesn't work for another, even to the extent that it may have worked in the past, but is no longer working.
This can be because of our genes, our environment, trauma, repeated antibiotic use, medications, stress, poor sleep hygiene as well as our nutrition and lifestyles. There's more information out there than ever before, yet we're more confused than ever.
That's where we come in...
Legacy Nutrition is dedicated to educating… Women.
So we can show up for the people in our worlds as the beautiful wonderful women we know we are!
Hi, I’m Kirstie! I started this business, wanting women to look and feel incredible, to truly teach women how to get back to health. not just become a slave to a diet. I wanted to see a meaningful and lasting change that would impact not only them but the people around them, their families, and the generations to come.

The Complete Microbiome Mapping test screens for pathogenic bacteria, opportunistic pathogens, viruses, fungi, parasites and several other markers. Legacy Nutrition’s belief is that MOST disease begins in the gut, so we ask all clients on the Comprehensive Programme to take this test.

This comprehensive stool test is based on DNA analysis, the latest technology for gut health testing, and the Human Microbiome Project. We work with the Australian lab NutriPATH for this test, as no lab in New Zealand will provide results as in-depth or to the level of detail we look for at Legacy.
