Who do we help?
We help people like you. People who are struggling to lose weight and would like to improve their health for the future.
Many people experience gradual weight gain over the years and end up on a cycle of yo-yo dieting as they struggle to maintain weight loss. Dieting often has a negative impact on metabolic rate, leading to rapid weight gain when normal eating is resumed. This is why a different approach is needed!
Why low-carb is different
A low-carb approach is not a diet in the traditional sense, it is a new way for eating for life. Choosing to eat real, low carb food is a delicious and extremely healthy way of eating which will enable you to lose weight and improve health.​​
Our approach
Our approach to helping you lose weight, reduce your diabetes risk, and support hormone balance and metabolism, is to help you transition to a diet based on real whole foods that are low in sugars and carbohydrates but rich in the nutrients you need to support good health.
We also provide advice on lifestyle aspects that impinge on health such as sleep quality, stress management, emotional well-being and exercise.​
Who are we?
​We are a team of BANT Registered Nutritionists who can work with you either individually or as part of a group programme, to support you in meeting your health goals. We use an evidence based, low-carb approach to support people with weight loss and metabolic health issues.
​
As Nutritional Therapists we can also support people with concurrent issues, such as digestive problems, thyroid issues, hormonal problems and well-being issues.

Why muscle health matters for metabolic health and what we can do about it
When we think about metabolic health, we often focus on body weight, blood glucose, cholesterol, blood pressure and body fat. But there is another important piece of the metabolic picture that we sometimes overlook - our muscles.
Skeletal muscle is not simply the tissue that enables us to walk, lift, climb stairs and carry shopping. It is also a major metabolic organ. Muscle stores glucose as glycogen, uses large amounts of glucose and fatty acids for energy, responds to insulin and communicates with other tissues through a range of signalling molecules.
This means that maintaining healthy muscle throughout life is important not only for strength and mobility, but also for maintaining healthy blood glucose, insulin sensitivity, body composition and metabolic health, and of which are critical for general health.
Muscle mass and strength may decline with age. However, the good news is that we can take action to strengthen and maintain our muscles with physical activity, nutrition and other lifestyle changes, which we describe below. So lets all take action to do this!
