Toral Shah is a Nutritional Scientist (MSc Nutr Med), Integrative Medicine Practitioner, Health writer Consultant, as well as the Founder of The Urban Kitchen. She originally went to medical school with a view to becoming an oncologist but when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, she realised that this was not the career for her.

Toral then went on to do an MSc in Nutritional Medicine at University of Surrey and became a functional medicine practitioner working with nutrigenomics.

She is currently putting together a PhD proposal looking at the impact of stress, diet and lifestyle on oestrogen dependent breast cancer.

Toral offers one-to-one private nutrition and functional medicine consultations for anyone looking at optimising their health and performance, and preventing disease.
