Weight Loss Nutritionist London

Rachel Clarkson, The DNA Dietitian, is a highly qualified nutritionist in London for weight loss, as well as being a registered dietitian who can help you achieve healthy weight loss and, just as importantly, arm you with the knowledge to help maintain your new body.

From her clinical practice based in London’s Harley Street or as your online weight loss coach, Rachel empowers patients on their weight loss journey.

Her training, coupled with a patient-focused ethos, helps her to work together with people to lose weight, devising tailored plans that lead to the desired weight management, whilst also making eating enjoyable.

That, of course, is a key benefit of a skilled nutritional therapist, helping to achieve the weight loss and reduction in fat, but doing this in a way that takes into account eating habits and food preferences.

Rachel also has a massive advantage over other weight loss nutritionists in London – she is a leading proponent of Nutrigenomics, the dietary advice based on detailed DNA sampling.

Get Help with Weight Loss in London 

For those looking for nutritional weight loss help in London, there are compelling reasons to consider Rachel, specifically.

In common with all dietitians, Rachel is trained to the highest level and works in tandem with other health professionals to ensure that any weight loss advice and nutritional therapy is always in the patient’s best interests.

She is a health and weight issues specialist who will take into account a patient’s full medical history, for instance any hormonal health problems and specific issues such as gut issues or autoimmune disease.

By entrusting Rachel, you will get a plan to lose weight that benefits overall health, rather than being a fad diet that may help you to shed pounds, but is damaging in other ways.

Rachel worked as a Clinical Dietitian in the NHS at Chelsea and Westminster hospital before setting up her private practice in London’s Harley Street. She also holds a  Masters degree in Nutritional Science at King’s College, London and undertook further 2 years of training in Dietetics at King’s College London.

Her credentials match up to those of any registered nutritional therapist in London.

An Empathetic Approach

Rachel works with clients, helping come up with a weight loss plan together, rather than imposing a diet or eating advice that is difficult to maintain.

A nutrition plan is key to weight loss, but the prospective client will only be able to lose weight in the long run if they are invested in the advice.

Rachel’s approach is not one of simply calorie counting or imposing diets, it is one that factors in lifestyle, circumstances, health issues, body composition and more as part of your weight management.

She gets to know her patients via detailed consultation – either in person or via video call – and factors in every aspect of their lifestyle to create a plan for nutrition that helps them achieve their weight management goals. Here’s how a DNA diet for weight loss works.

All-round benefit

While the reason for seeking advice relating to nutrition might be to gain weight loss techniques, Rachel will not treat this concern in isolation.

Her dietary plan and nutritional therapy will also typically lead to optimal health, with many other health benefits beyond weight loss, including:

  • increasing energy and vitality
  • identifying nutrient deficiencies
  • helping to manage any chronic health conditions
  • minimising the impact of any food intolerances
  • aiding gut health
  • potentially helping to address symptoms of other health issues – for instance, stomach cramps and issues relating to body functions
  • helping manage stress levels and emotional eating
  • general health for women

This is not an extra service; it is the core of the weight loss diet plans and nutritional therapy.

DNA Dietary Advice

Rachel’s title as ‘The DNA Dietitian’ relates to her training with the field of nutrigenomics and use of DNA analysis to create truly bespoke weight loss plans for optimal health, nutrition and lifestyle.

This use of DNA helps take the field of nutritional therapy to a new level, allowing for a personalised nutrition plan.

Previously, weight loss plans were based on science and research, but they weren’t completely focused on the individual and their bespoke body weight issues.

The DNA diet addresses this.

By taking a DNA sample and then having this profiled at a renowned European laboratory, it is possible to get a far fuller picture of that patient’s unique make-up and, specifically, how they naturally react to a huge range of different food types.

The analysis will find any food intolerances – not just obvious ones but ones that would otherwise go undiagnosed but still play a part in overall health and weight gain.

The DNA sample sent for lab testing can help to show the quantities of different food types that the person needs and then look at how they should receive each. How much of their diet should be protein, what is the best food source to get their fats, sugars, and vitamins.

The complete weight loss plan will show which injuries the person is susceptible to so it supports sports nutrition too; it will detail, for instance, whether they need extra iron or should stick to the RDA, do they need to limit caffeine intake, do they need any supplements and, if so, which ones, in what quantity and when.

The best way to get a sense of the level of information contained within a report is to look at a full sample version.

Rachel gives further details about what is included in a DNA report in the video below.

While incredibly detailed, the report itself would be hard for anybody without specific training to turn into a weight loss plan and a healthy liefstyle.

It might detail which food types a person needs, what they should avoid and how they should get key dietary elements, but how can this be turned into an actual weight loss plan that works?

Rachel works with you. She supports you on your weight loss journey, listening to you as you describe your eating habits and health history, taking note of the types of food you like and dislike – there is little point recommending a diet for losing weight high in fish if that is a food you cannot stand to eat.

As long as the patient is open and honest about their food choices during consultations, she can create a model that will lead to healthy weight loss and a healthy lifestyle.
