Health and Lifestyle Dietitian |
Evidence-based nutrition for better health, more energy and sustainable change.
Health and lifestyle nutrition
Improving your diet should not mean starting again every Monday, cutting out the foods you enjoy or trying to follow an unrealistic set of rules.
Health and lifestyle nutrition is about identifying the changes that will make the greatest difference to your health and making them workable in the context of your routines, preferences and responsibilities.
As a Registered Dietitian based in Newcastle, I provide practical, evidence-based nutrition support for adults with health, lifestyle and weight-management goals, both online and in person.
My role is to understand the bigger picture, simplify the advice and help you focus on changes that are meaningful, measurable and sustainable.
So you can spend less time second-guessing food choices and build an approach that supports your health without taking over your life.
Is this right for you?
You might benefit from health and lifestyle nutrition support if you:
Want to improve cholesterol, blood pressure or metabolic health.
Have pre-diabetes, insulin resistance or a family history of type 2 diabetes.
Want support with gradual, sustainable weight management.
Feel tired or inconsistent with eating across the day.
Experience bloating or digestive symptoms that affect food choices.
Want to improve your relationship with food and move away from repeated dieting.
Need nutrition support while becoming more active.
Feel overwhelmed by conflicting health advice.
Want a plan that works around work, family and real life.

How I can help
Support is tailored to your health needs and priorities, but commonly includes:
- A detailed assessment of dietary intake, health history and lifestyle.
- Nutrition for cholesterol and cardiovascular health.
- Support for pre-diabetes, insulin resistance and metabolic health.
- Sustainable weight-management strategies where appropriate.
- Meal structure, appetite, energy and snack planning.
- Practical ways to increase dietary quality without perfection.
- Support with digestive symptoms within my scope of practice.
- Interpreting relevant blood results and medical information.
- Liaison with your GP or onward referral where further investigation is needed.
Who I work with
- Adults wanting to improve long-term health
- People with raised cholesterol or cardiometabolic risk
- People with pre-diabetes or insulin resistance
- Recreationally active individuals
- People returning to exercise
- Adults seeking sustainable weight support

You do not need to have a diagnosed condition. Many people simply want credible advice, a clearer structure and support turning good intentions into habits that last.
Why RJ Performance Nutrition?
As a Registered Dietitian, I am trained to apply nutrition science safely in the context of health conditions, symptoms, medications and relevant clinical information.
My sports nutrition background also means I understand the role of movement, recovery and maintaining lean mass – particularly when health and weight goals sit alongside an active lifestyle.
You’ll receive personalised advice that is realistic and proportionate, without detoxes, blanket food bans or a one-size-fits-all meal plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a medical diagnosis to book?
No. You may want support with general health, energy, eating habits or prevention. If symptoms suggest medical investigation is needed, I will advise you to contact your GP.
Can you help with weight loss?
Yes, where this is appropriate. The focus is on gradual, sustainable change while protecting nutrition, muscle mass, health and your relationship with food.
Can you help lower cholesterol?
Yes. We can review the factors most relevant to your current intake and build practical changes around fats, fibre, plant foods and overall dietary pattern.
Do you provide meal plans?
I can provide structure, examples and personalised targets, but support is not based on a rigid menu. The aim is to give you flexible tools you can use in real life.
Can you help with digestive symptoms?
I can assess common dietary contributors and provide support within my scope. Persistent, severe or unexplained symptoms may require GP or specialist investigation.
Do you offer online appointments?
Yes. Consultations are available online throughout the UK as well as in person in Ponteland, Newcastle.
