Annette Hurn

Naturopathy and nutritional medicine contributor

Annette Hurn is introduced in Beyond Limitations as a naturopath and nutritionist practising in Queensland. Her biography lists a Bachelor of Health Science in Nutritional Medicine and advanced diplomas in naturopathy and Western herbal medicine.

Her chapter recounts a period of severe fatigue and burnout that affected her ability to work and carry out ordinary tasks. Annette describes the loss of energy and confidence as a challenge that required help, time and changes in the way she approached commitments.

My Journey with Adrenal Fatigue considers boundaries, saying no and recognizing the point at which continued effort is no longer sustainable. The chapter connects that personal experience with her interest in food, wellbeing and supporting other people.

Annette's contribution provides a professional and personal background to her writing. Its use of the term adrenal fatigue belongs to the author's account and should not be treated as a diagnosis or as evidence that a particular remedy addresses another person's fatigue.
