About Heidi

The recipes and the products developed by SeedsOfLife have allowed Heidi to manage an array of life long auto-immune diseases for herself and many customers.

Heidi is well respected as an organic plant-based grain & gluten free baker with SeedsOfLife manufacturing tonnes of product for world wide distribution.

After a successful corporate career in wholesale and fashion retail, Heidi became unwell in her late 30's and was diagnosed with many autoimmune diseases, food allergies and intolerances.

Being diagnosed Coeliac, this certainly came with many challenges. Heidi and her husband soon realised there was a demand for grain & gluten free plant-based wholefoods.

Heidi had been gluten-free for approx 20 years before realising a grain free paleo diet would improve her health dramatically and allow her to manage her chronic inflammation and digestive issues.

However, it was one step forward three back as 2 bush tick bites caused Heidi to develop an allergy to red meat...so Heidi embarked on a vegan diet. This led Heidi to her worst year health-wise...

A breakthrough after years of suffering identified an inability for her body to methylate & process synthetic chemicals. This breakthrough led Heidi to a 100% organic lifestyle reducing the toxic burden on her system and she has never looked back... had been unwell for quite some time and had been diagnosed with an array of auto-immune issues that were very debilitating, not only causing her to give up her career but her independence as well.  


After seeing many practitioners and spending a fortune on medications, supplements and therapies, Heidi still remained unwell. The verdict was there was no point to the 35 supplements she was taking each day as she was unable to absorb any nutrients as her digestive system was a complete mess, with leaky gut, irritable bowel and diverticulitis...not to mention lymphocyte clusters throughout the bowel. Heidi was diagnosed with Coeliac Disease in her mid 20's. 

Heidi had a long list of foods she had to avoid...and this list was forever changing and growing. 
With very little 'in choice' to eat and Pete under extreme pressure to run the house, look after the kids and Heidi, Heidi researched the nutrients she was lacking and the foods that were nutrient rich in the vitamins and minerals she needed. Heidi had already began her paleo journey and soon realised seeds and nuts held the nutrition she was seeking. 
Heidi created the Original Seed and Nut bread. It was created with her recommended daily nutritional amounts required within just 2 slices of bread, as Heidi really didn't care for the taste as she was seeking nutrition first and foremost. 
After persevering and throwing out many 'bricks of bread' a star was born, which Heidi ate nearly every meal with a simple topping such as tomato or avocado, a poached egg or some mushrooms... Over time, the family began to love it too. 
Now Heidi's journey didn't stop there... whilst her health did improve somewhat, years later it was a discovery of an inability to process synthetic phosphate that helped her to manage and improve her health dramatically.....and this is why we are so passionate about Organic ingredients.
