Nutritionist and Dietitian Consultations: Achieving Summer Health Goals

Summer is the perfect time to refresh your health, feel energised, and reach your personal goals — and private nutritionist and dietitian consultations can help you get there faster. ☀️🥗
Whether you're aiming for weight loss, sports performance, better digestion, or simply healthier eating habits, expert advice makes all the difference.

In this guide, we’ll explain how private nutrition support works, the difference between nutritionists and dietitians, and how Ready Health can help you optimise your wellbeing this summer and beyond.

🔍 Nutritionist vs Dietitian: What’s the Difference?

ProfessionalFocus
NutritionistAdvises on general healthy eating, lifestyle improvements, wellness strategies
DietitianSpecialises in medical nutrition therapy — regulated and able to treat diagnosed conditions

✅ Both can help you transform your eating habits — but if you have a medical condition (e.g., diabetes, IBS, eating disorders), it’s important to see a registered dietitian.

🥑 Why See a Private Nutritionist or Dietitian?

While NHS dietetic services exist, they are often:

  • Hard to access without a GP referral 📋

  • Focused mainly on serious medical conditions

  • Subject to long waiting lists (several months in some areas)

Private clinics offer:

  • Faster access — often within days 📅

  • Personalised, goal-driven consultations

  • Support for both medical and lifestyle nutrition needs

  • Flexible appointment times, including evenings and weekends

Choosing private support means getting tailored advice — when it matters most.

2. Digestive Health
