What to look for in a nutritionist UK?

zobo73 · June 2013

Hello I am thinking about getting a nutritionist to help me work out what, when and how much I should be eating to help loose body fat with my exercise program. Only have 12lb left to go and really want to sculpt my body. I understand about good diet, water intake etc.. But want to get more scientific, proteins v carbs to induce fat burning hormones and what is right for me. Just have no idea what to look for in a nutritionist, qualifications, experience. If you are or know what I should be looking for from a UK nutritionist/ dietician I would really appricate it.

Cheers Zoe

don,t go fo a nutritionist. The term has no legal definition and anyone and there dog can call themselves one. Look for a dietician they have to legally be state registered and qualified.

http://www.nutritionist-resource.org.uk/ will help find one nearby perhaps.

I would look for a female with a similar figure to you're aiming for, as I would find it had to take advice from a chubby one.

Dietitians are nutritionists who are government registered and regulated. To quote one of them - http://www.nutritionist-resource.org.uk/nutritionists/sian-evans
