Nutrition for Eating Disorders
Whether or not you have a diagnosed eating disorder, we’re here for you if you feel like you need to improve your relationship with food.

Digestive Health and Irritable Bowel Syndrome
When suffering from digestive health issues, every meal becomes a risk. It can be extremely stressful trying to live a normal life when something most people take for granted causes you pain and discomfort. This stress can often make symptoms worse, which in turn leads to more stress and frustration.
If you reguarly feel this way, read more to find out what support we can offer.
Weight Loss and Chronic Conditions
Dieting is hard, and with so much conflicting advice out there, it’s difficult to know the best way to manage your weight or chronic condition. The truth is, everyone is different, and what works for someone else won’t necessarily work for you.
If you’re struggling with your weight, pre-diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol, we can help.
“Sophie was really helpful in providing support whilst also letting me take control of the direction of the consultations. She also provided her expert advice in a kind manner. She broke all of my goals into small manageable ones and provided me with good quality information so that I always knew why I was doing what I was doing. Thank you so much.”

A Fresh Approach
Bristol Dietitians
A team of experienced and passionate dietitians, we work with clients at the clinic in Bristol, or across the UK via online consultations.
We aim to cut through the confusion of dietary advice on the internet and in the media, and to give our clients the fresh approach they need to see real results.

Realistic Dietary Advice
A Plan that Works For You
We understand that real life can often get in the way of the best laid dietiary plans. That’s why in our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your lifestyle and routine to figure out what fits.
We’ll provide you with realistic, easy to implement solutions that you can work into your daily routine, but which are also flexible enough for when you need to be spontaneous.
Please note: not all our dietitians are available for face to face appointments; your consultation may be held online.
For any questions or enquiries, feel free to contact us.
