Presented by
Christine Houghton
B.Sc.(Biochem.), Grad.Dip.Hum.Nutr., R.Nutr., PhD. Cand
Christine Houghton is a Biochemist whose busy private practice in Nutritional Medicine spanned 30 years. She is currently undertaking doctoral research at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, investigating the role of bioactive nutrigenomic phytochemicals with significant clinical potential.
She is an accomplished writer and an engaging speaker whose evidence-supported presentations may challenge accepted but often-outdated paradigms.
Christine’s forte lies in taking complex biochemical concepts and translating their essence into concepts relevant to the needs of practising clinicians.
She is a regular presenter at medical and nutrition conferences where her knowledge of and enthusiasm for the roles of Nutritional Medicine and Nutrigenomics in human health are very evident.
She is the author of “Switched On – Harnessing the Power of Nutrigenomics to Optimise Health”.
