The Family Nutrition Expert DipION MBANT CNHC

About me

Hi - I'm Catherine Jeans, clinic director of The Family Nutrition Expert, based in Norwich, Norfolk.  I'm one of the UK's most experienced Nutritional Therapists, and have supported thousands of clients worldwide with their health and wellness goals.  

I oversee a team of nutritional therapists, each with their own specialist areas.  We support families of all ages (both children and adults), with a special interest in digestive health, weight management, hormone balance and stress, neurodiversity and restrictive eating, skin health, plant based nutrition and sports nutrition.  

Here at The Family Nutrition Expert clinic, we provide you with practical, realistic and effective nutritional programmes, tailor-made to suit you and your individual needs.  We are also experts in helping you to understood the root causes of your symptoms, utilising functional health tests where needed.  These include microbiome stool analysis, nutritional reviews, hormone tests and food sensitivity/intolerance testing.

Our aim is to help you change your eating habits for life, and in turn create a life time of optimum health and wellbeing.

We work in a neurodivergent affirming way, and have specialist training in supporting clients with a history of disordered eating.

Information about health conditions (*)

Nutritional therapy can help enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting nutritional therapy or making any major changes to your diet or lifestyle.
