E82: Can Nutrition Make a Difference? Guest Patricia Daly, Nutritional Therapist

Join A Cure in Sight as we interview Patricia Daly, an OM survivor and nutritional therapist. She shares her personal journey with ocular melanoma, including a recurrence of her tumor in her eye and local orbital spread, and how she began a journey to healing her body’s metabolic system, one small step at a time.

“Patricia was diagnosed with a 15.2-mm large choroidal melanoma in 2008. Following plaque radiotherapy under Professor Bertil Damato in Liverpool, she responded well to the treatment but not even two years later suffered a recurrence. The original tumour now measured 18.3mm and there was also local spread with an extraocular tumour of 6.2mm, called "extraocular extension" (stage T4e). Patricia was treated with proton beam therapy in Clatterbridge. Another two years on, in 2012, there was renewed tumour activity and excessive angiogenesis- and this was the moment she opted out of further treatment and embarked on a metabolic health journey, which is an ongoing process for her.

Patricia Daly is an experienced and internationally recognized nutritional therapist (MSc, dipNT, mBANT, rCNHC) specializing in the personalized application of ketogenic metabolic therapies for recovery from chronic health challenges. She credits the ketogenic lifestyle for successfully quieting an aggressive eye tumour she was diagnosed with fifteen years ago. In 2021, she completed her MSc degree in "Advanced Nutrition in Research and Practice" at Middlesex University in London.

Patricia is co-author of The Ketogenic Kitchen, a best-selling cookbook that includes meal plans for therapeutic carbohydrate restriction. Born in Switzerland and living in Ireland, Patricia is a proud founding and advisory member of the European Keto Live Center based in Switzerland. She regularly speaks at international conferences and has established herself as one of the leading practitioners in the field of metabolic therapies.

Nothing makes her prouder than witnessing her clients transform from bystanders to active and empowered participants on their health journey."
