My Story
Hello — I’m Marina Murphy, founder of Balance You Foods and, at 49, still as passionate as ever about helping people nourish their bodies and feel their best.
My journey began from personal experience — years of living with endometriosis, fatigue, and hormonal imbalance. I knew something had to change, so I started to look deeper into what was really going on inside my body. That curiosity led me to study hormone and gut health, not only to help myself heal but to understand how food and lifestyle could make a genuine difference for others too.
With a background in culinary arts and pastry, I began creating wholesome versions of the foods I loved — comforting homemade bakes, nutrient-dense snacks, and real food made with natural, minimally processed ingredients. Over time, this grew into Balance You Foods and our café in Ballinrobe, Co. Mayo — a space where nourishing food and everyday enjoyment go hand in hand.
It’s All About Balance
I’ve always believed that food should be both enjoyable and nourishing. It’s not about restriction or perfection — it’s about awareness.
Today, so much of what we eat is ultra-processed, leaving our bodies overfed but undernourished. I wanted to change that.
Everything we make — from our pastries, breads, and baked goods to our Balance Her Bites and organic lemon & ginger kefir — is crafted by hand, using whole, simple ingredients. We offer plenty of gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined-sugar-free choices so everyone can find something that feels good for them.
Because real balance isn’t about giving things up — it’s about knowing what we’re putting into our bodies, choosing quality, and finding joy in food that truly supports our wellbeing.
Where I Am Now
While I no longer offer one-to-one consultations, my goal remains the same — to help others feel their best through real, mindful nourishment.
If you’d like support, have a question, or simply want to chat, you’re always welcome to email me or call into the café. I’ll always do my best to help where I can.
Balance You Foods has grown from my kitchen table into a thriving community built on care, connection, and balance — one bite at a time.
Warmly,
Marina 🌿
