**Not sure whether you need a gut health dietitian or nutritionist?

Many people who look for a gut health dietitian are actually searching for clear answers, personalised guidance, and support that goes beyond restrictive diets. As a Registered Nutritional Therapist and Gut Health Nutritionist (BANT, CNHC), I offer a functional, root-cause approach to gut issues that complements - and often goes deeper than - typical dietetic care.
Gut health nutritionist support can help you understand what’s truly driving your symptoms and what your gut needs to finally settle.
Living with bloating, reflux or unpredictable digestion can feel exhausting.
Constipation or diarrhoea, flare ups and food reactions may have you stuck in a repeating cycle that’s hard to escape.
Many people bounce between doctors, tests, and restrictive diets, but rarely are they given specific expertise, a comprehensive approach, or ongoing guidance.
It’s easy to start believing that nothing will truly work. Understanding why your gut symptoms persist is the first step toward lasting relief.
This begins with viewing your gut not in isolation, but as part of your whole self.
Expert Gut Health Specialist - Professor Tim Spector
Chronic gut issues rarely heal through restrictive diets, constant food avoidance, random supplements or medication alone. Your gut is closely linked to every other system in the body, especially the nervous, immune and hormonal systems. And because the brain and gut are so interconnected, flare-ups can be triggered just as easily by stress or emotional overwhelm as by food.
My Mind Body Biome™ approach, shaped by almost a decade of experience, reflects the most effective way I’ve found to support people with long-standing gut symptoms. Combining Nutritional Therapy, Functional Testing and Mind Body support, I look at everything that influences digestion, not just what you eat, but how your body responds, adapts, and holds stress.
Addressing any one of the mind, body or microbiome can be hugely beneficial. But it’s when all three are considered together that we begin to see meaningful, sustainable improvements in symptoms and overall well-being.
As gut health nutritionist, my work focuses on helping people with, chronic bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, and mixed or unpredictable bowel habits understand what’s really driving their symptoms. Unlike generic gut health diet advice or “one-size-fits-all” plans, this approach looks at every layer of your health, digestion, microbial balance, inflammation, stress, nervous system regulation, meal patterns, and the habits that influence flare-ups.
Whether you’re searching for personalised guidance from a gut health specialist or gut health dietitian or simply want support making sense of your symptoms, my role is to bring clarity, evidence-based direction and a plan that works in real life, not another restrictive cycle.
Functional testing (when appropriate) can provide deeper insight into microbiome imbalance, digestive capacity, food reactions, and inflammation. Combined with tailored nutrition and tools to support stress and the gut–brain connection, this holistic approach helps you move toward calmer digestion, more predictable bowel habits, reduced bloating, and a clearer understanding of what your body needs.
No quick fixes. No one-size-fits-all programs. This is structured, evidence-based gut health support that addresses every layer of your health.

“I worked with Amanda for six months and the difference has been remarkable. Her tailored eating plan, supplement support and careful use of testing gave me insights I’d never had before. The results were genuinely startling” - Manny ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Amanda's guidance has been both practical and deeply supportive. I’ve seen genuine improvements in my energy, digestion and overall wellbeing, and for the first time nutrition feels simple, sustainable and actually enjoyable” - Peter ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“My GP had struggled for years to get me a diagnosis or effective treatment. Amanda took the time to listen to my history and issues and within weeks, I saw a massive difference” - Martina ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It’s completely understandable. Many people with long-standing gut symptoms feel they’ve tried everything, every diet, every supplement, every specialist, yet still end up stuck in the same cycle of flare-ups and uncertainty. After years of being bounced between appointments without clear answers, it’s normal to feel discouraged.
My role is to help find the missing pieces of the puzzle.
As a registered Nutritional Therapist, I have access to advanced testing beyond what’s typically offered by a GP, which can reveal things often missed or dismissed in standard care. This work isn’t about blanket solutions, it’s about ongoing support, asking the right questions and understanding what’s truly driving your gut symptoms.
It’s far more than a generic meal plan or a ten-minute appointment; meaningful change takes time, patience, curiosity and compassion.
The discovery call is a relaxed space to talk through what’s been happening for you, your symptoms, challenges and what you’ve already tried. It’s less about me and more about understanding you, so we can begin to uncover what may be driving your gut symptoms or holding you back from feeling better.
If it’s helpful, I’ll offer some insight into where you’re at right now. From there, I’ll explain how I work, answer any questions you have, and together we’ll see whether it feels like the right fit. No pressure, just an open conversation about what could help you move forward.
Not always.
We begin by understanding your symptoms, health history and goals before deciding whether testing is necessary. Functional tests can offer deeper insight into gut health when the picture isn’t yet clear, but we only use them if they will genuinely support your progress, never as a requirement.
Q1: What is the difference between a gut health dietitian and a gut health nutritionist?
A: Many people search for a gut health dietitian or gut health nutritionist when looking for support with bloating, reflux or ongoing digestive symptoms. In the UK, "dietitian" is a legally protected title, while "nutritionist" and "nutritional therapist" are regulated through professional bodies such as BANT and CNHC. Dietitians typically work in medical settings and focus on clinical testing, diagnosis and medical nutrition interventions.
A gut health nutritionist takes a more holistic approach, using personalised nutrition, supplementation, lifestyle medicine and functional testing to address the root causes of digestive issues. As a registered Nutritionist and Nutritional Therapist (BANT, CNHC), my work combines these tools to support long-term gut health.
Q2: What is a gut health nutritionist, and how can they help with bloating or reflux?
A: A gut health nutritionist is a registered professional who specialises in digestive health. They support people with bloating, reflux, constipation and other gut symptoms by identifying food triggers, improving digestion and restoring microbiome balance.
As a qualified digestive health nutritionist, I use evidence-based strategies and functional testing when appropriate to understand what is driving your symptoms. A good gut health specialist looks beyond a simple meal plan and takes time to understand your history, lifestyle, stress patterns and the gut brain connection. This personalised and ongoing support is what makes long-term improvement possible.
Q3: Why work with a nutritionist specialising in gut health compared to, or alongside, my GP?
A: Your GP plays an important role, especially in ruling out serious conditions. However, GP appointments are often brief and focused on symptom management. A gut health nutritionist has the time to look deeper into your history, lifestyle, diet and stress patterns to understand what is driving your digestive symptoms.
While a GP may focus on diagnosis or medication, a gut health specialist provides personalised and holistic support that addresses underlying causes. The two approaches work well together. Medical care ensures safety, while nutrition therapy provides the depth needed for lasting digestive change.
Q4: Can I manage bloating or reflux on my own, or do I need a gut health nutritionist?
A: Many people try to manage gut symptoms on their own by changing their diet or using supplements, but results are often short-lived or inconsistent. A gut health nutritionist brings expertise in identifying root causes, using science-based strategies and applying functional testing when helpful.
They also provide a personalised plan and ongoing support that adapts to your lifestyle, stress patterns and changing symptoms. This type of guidance addresses diet, microbiome balance, the gut brain connection and nervous system support. These are key factors in achieving long-term digestive relief.
Q5: Do I need to have in-person consultations?
A: Not at all. Most clients work with me online and find it easier to stay consistent that way. As an online gut health nutritionist, I offer the same depth of support that you would receive in person.
Whether you are looking for a London gut health nutritionist or prefer to work from home, the process is the same. We explore your diet, microbiome and nervous system to understand what is driving your symptoms. You receive a personalised plan, targeted nutrition for gut repair and ongoing guidance, all with the convenience and comfort of home.
