Weight Loss Nutritionist London

Rachel Clarkson, The DNA Dietitian, is a highly qualified nutritionist and 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 on their weight loss, devising tailored plans that lead to the desired weight, 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.

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

Experience and training 

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

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

By entrusting Rachel, you will get a plan for fat loss 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 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.

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 health 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 many other health benefits beyond weight loss, including:

• increasing energy and vitality
• helping to manage any 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
• general health for women

This is not an extra service, this is core to the diet plans.

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 plans for nutrition and lifestyle.

This use of DNA helps to take the field of nutrition to a new level. previously, the plans created were based on science and research but they weren’t completely focussed on the individual. 

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 – this not just obvious ones but ones that would otherwise go undiagnosed but still play a part in overall health.

The DNA sample is 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 for them to get their fats, their sugars, their vitamins.

The complete plan will show which injuries the person is susceptible to, it will detail, for instance of 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 for 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 dietary plan. Its might detail which food types a person needs, what they should avoid and how they should get key elements of their diet, but how can this be turned into an actual lifestyle plan that works?

Rachel works with you. She listens to you as you describe your eating habits and takes note of the types of food you like and dislike – there is little point recommending a diet 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.
