The Health Mentor
My name is Prof. Celene Bernstein, your health mentor, a graduate of Applying Functional Medicine in The Hybrid Diet mimics the body's evolutionary design.
I continually keep up to date with the latest research and studies in nutrition and this has brought me to the Keto/Low Carb and Hybrid diet choice of eating, not only to lose weight but also to improve many unresolved health issues as well.

Prof Celene never gives up
I’m excited to share that I’ve joined So Purist — a health store with a real difference.
I’m back on the scene, doing what I love most: helping people make healthier, more conscious choices
Where to find us
So Purist is situated at 1 Discovery Place, bringing the trend of plastic-free grocery shopping to our community.
✔️ Easy to get to
✔️ Safe, convenient underground parking
✔️ No rush, no tickets, no time pressure
A shop with a purpose
So Purist is a planet-friendly grocer, stocking ethically sourced pantry goods, personal hygiene and cleaning products — all while upholding plastic-free shopping.
Our philosophy is simple and powerful:
Refill • Reduce Waste • Eat Real Food
We offer many items in refill containers — nuts, seeds, flours, protein powder, grains, teas, coffee, olive oil, honey, healthy snacks and more.
Bring your own container or use ours
Weigh • Fill • Pay
The hub of the shop is vibrant, welcoming, and genuinely exciting — designed with you in mind: health, sustainability, simplicity and choice.
You’ll be beautifully looked after by Audrey and Prosper, who are knowledgeable and caring, whether I’m there or not.
Come and see for yourself — I promise, you’ll be blown away.
Hope to see you soon

As this new year opens, I find myself less interested in counting resolutions and more in counting gratitude.
For the people who stood beside me in big moments and small ones.
For family who anchor us, friends who lift us, and colleagues who inspire growth, courage, and purpose.
For conversations that healed, challenges that taught, laughter that carried us through, and even the difficult days that shaped us more gently than we expected.
May this year bring us moments of stillness in a busy world, clarity where there has been uncertainty, and health — of body, mind, and spirit — to truly enjoy what matters most.
Thank you for being part of my life’s journey. I step into this new year with appreciation, hope, and an open heart.

I’m delighted to be joining **Nicolas Engel on Chai FM 101.9** tomorrow morning at **10:05 AM** to talk about something we all think about this time of year:
**How to detox the *right* way before going on holiday – and how to reset your body when you return.**
We’ll be chatting about gentle, realistic ways to prepare your system so you feel lighter, more energetic, and comfortable in your own skin before you head off… and how to support your digestion, weight, and overall wellbeing once you’re back.
If you’re heading away soon or simply want to feel your best, this conversation is for you.

Would love you to join us!

I have been going through a lot of stress in my life but I am thankful for following this incredible woman whose book I am reading called "What if This is Heaven" by Anita Moorjani. I would just like to share everyday this week a quote that can give you all strength and motivation to just always be thankful and grateful " I can't say this strongly enough, but our feelings about ourselves are actually the most important barometer for determining the condition of our lives!
