Nutritional therapy support for lasting weight loss

Losing weight that stays off is rarely just about eating less — it’s about understanding why the body is holding on to weight in the first place, whether that’s blood sugar and insulin patterns, hormones, stress, or simply years of conflicting diet advice.

Many people come to us having tried everything else and feeling somewhat let down along the way, often having lost weight before only to see it creep back. We offer a range of weight loss approaches, tailored to what suits an individual’s history, preferences and goals — two of the most commonly used are outlined below.

How we can help

Two of the ways we can help

Both approaches below are built around eating well, real food — there are no shakes, no meal replacements, and no long-term reliance on the plan once results are achieved. Alongside these, other options may also suit depending on individual circumstances, discussed properly on the discovery call. The right choice comes down to personal preference, history and what fits best.

Metabolic Balance

A world-renowned programme built entirely around personal blood chemistry. A blood test measuring around 36 different markers is analysed to generate a nutrition plan entirely unique to the individual’s own body — not a generic template, but one calculated specifically from personal biochemistry. This is the more established, internationally recognised option, and many clients like the reassurance of a plan built directly from their own bloodwork.

  • Personalised down to the individual’s own blood results — no two plans are the same
  • A globally used programme with a long track record
  • Requires an initial blood test to generate the personalised plan

The IR Plan

Our own in-house programme, built around addressing insulin resistance — one of the most common underlying reasons weight loss stalls or doesn’t happen at all, even with genuinely good effort. Structured around a series of appointments over several months, it doesn’t require a blood test, making it a straightforward starting point for many, without compromising on how personalised or effective it is.

  • No blood test required to begin
  • A structured series of appointments over several months, adjusting the plan as progress is made

Nutritional therapy is a complementary approach that supports general health and wellbeing. It does not replace individual medical assessment. Anyone currently taking prescribed medication should continue taking it as directed, and any changes should always be made through whoever prescribed it. Individual results vary and no specific outcome can be guaranteed.

Common questions

Metabolic Balance builds a plan directly from a personal blood test. The IR Plan is our own in-house programme focused on insulin resistance and doesn’t require a blood test to begin. Both are genuinely personalised and built around real food, and sit alongside other options we can discuss depending on individual circumstances.
This depends on individual history, preferences, and whether a blood-chemistry-based approach feels like the right fit. This is talked through properly on the free discovery call, with an honest recommendation either way.
Only for Metabolic Balance. The IR Plan doesn’t require any bloodwork to get started.
Costs are talked through honestly on the free, no-obligation discovery call — we’ll explain each option and what it involves before you decide anything.
