FAQs
Nutritionist versus dietitian, or nutritionist versus dietician, is one of the most common questions in private nutrition care in London. A Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, such as our practitioner at LIPS Healthcare, takes a personalised, functional approach to nutrition, assessing how individual health factors, lifestyle, and diet interact. A registered dietitian is a protected title for professionals trained primarily in clinical and hospital settings.
If you are looking for a private dietitian near you in London, a BANT-registered Nutritional Therapy Practitioner in private practice offers comparable personalised nutrition support, with direct access and no waiting list. At LIPS Healthcare, our practitioner holds a qualification in Nutritional Therapy and is registered with BANT.
Yes. Hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause can affect weight, energy, sleep, bone density, and metabolic health, all of which nutrition can support. NICE guidelines (NG23) include lifestyle and nutritional approaches as part of managing menopausal symptoms. Your Nutritional Therapy Practitioner can build a plan designed around your specific symptoms and priorities at this stage of life.
Gut microbiome testing analyses the microorganisms living in your gut and provides information about how your gut microbial community is functioning. It can be relevant to digestive symptoms such as bloating, changes in bowel habits, and food intolerances. Not everyone needs this test. Your practitioner will advise whether it is useful for you during your initial consultation.
Yes. Nutritional therapy can support patients using GLP-1 medication by helping to optimise diet quality, maintain muscle mass, and build sustainable eating habits during and after treatment. If you are using or considering GLP-1 treatment through LIPS Healthcare, speak to your GP or prescribing clinician about including nutritional therapy as part of your plan.
It depends on your goals and how complex your health picture is. Some patients find a single consultation sufficient to get a clear plan. Others benefit from a series of follow-up appointments where recommendations are reviewed and refined over time. Your practitioner will discuss the options at your first appointment.
