Polyphenia
Polyphenia is the brainchild of Lisa Goodkind to make Nutritional Therapy and Functional medicine accessible and affordable to a wider audience through mentored online learning.
The first offering is The Polyphenol Plan™ which introduces a new way of eating to specifically tackle the symptoms of Long COVID. With Long COVID affecting over 17 million people in Europe along, Lisa wants to bring her solution to as wide an audience as possible.

Lisa’s Story
Lisa’s interest in health and wellness began with her own diagnosis of the autoimmune condition, Rheumatoid Arthritis. This was a life changing event for Lisa who carried out her own research, trained in Nutrition and Functional Medicine, and against the odds managed to reverse her symptoms.
In the early stages of Lisa’s recovery, she sourced most of her information online and from Facebook Groups, and it was this experience that has influenced her to set up Polyphenia. Lisa wants to bring Nutrition and Functional medicine to a wide audience, at an affordable price, and to create supportive communities which she herself found so helpful during her struggles with health.
“My experience mirrors a lot of others who suffer with chronic health issues. We have a certain expectation that doctors know everything, and that there is always a pill that can make us better. This isn’t always the case, particularly with Long COVID, and that’s when we have to look somewhere else, and often take responsibility for our own healing, in order to recover.”
