nutrition with
a difference
About altnutr
I’m Rhianna, a Registered Associate Nutritionist, and I get it. Thinking about making healthy choices is a chore when you’ve got so much else on your plate. That’s where altnutr can help.
altnutr was created out a craving for being understood when I couldn’t understand myself.
I grew up as an undiagnosed neurodivergent outsider, developing disordered eating habits as a way to cope with trying desperately to fit in. It seemed that everybody around me had their life together, so why was I struggling so much with the basics?
If this resonates, then you are the reason that I am doing this today.
I offer an honest, non-judgmental and empathetic approach, with a bit of realness thrown into the mix.
I don’t like to mince my words, I can be a bit of an anarchist, but most importantly, all advice I offer is evidence-based, empowering you to cut through the misinformation (or 'nutribollocks', to quote Dr Joshua Wolrich)!
I can support you with:
Understanding your relationship with food
Overcoming poor body image
Conquering disordered eating habits
Dismantling weight stigma
Navigating nutrition with neurodiversity
Optimising your nutrition
If you've ever opened the fridge, felt immediately overwhelmed and closed it again, we should talk.
I provide nutrition support without rigid rules, without perfectionism, and without an 'all-or-nothing' mindset.
We'll keep what works, we'll ditch what doesn't, and make food one less thing taking up space in your frazzled brain.
Credentials
When it comes to your health, you want to know that you’re in safe hands.
I am a Registered Associate Nutritionist (ANutr), a membership upheld and regulated by the Association for Nutrition (AfN). This requires a nutrition degree, of which I hold a First Class BSc in Human Nutrition & Health. My AfN registration number is 40026.
I work to and uphold the AfN Standards of Ethics, Conduct and Performance and the AfN Freelance and Independent Practice Standards.
I have professional indemnity insurance, giving you peace of mind and trust in me and my services.
Experience
I work for my local council in Public Health, delivering healthy lifestyle courses and tailored workshops for groups within my local community, as well as training professionals to help eliminate weight stigma and support their clients with their health.
Here are just a few of the organisations I have worked with.
Testimonials
I’ve successfully supported hundreds of individuals through both 1:1 and group sessions to improve their health. Here’s what some of them had to say:
"Rhianna was just fantastic. She made each session fun, informative and very helpful. Because of her, I can see a better future in my journey."
"Rhianna made me feel that it was OK and this is something I can do."
"Rhianna explained things really well, answered questions with good knowledge and was encouraging and not judgemental."
Services - 1 to 1
Step 1: Complete a pre-consultation questionnaire.
Step 2: Have a 30-minute telephone consultation with me, where we’ll discuss your expectations and identify your requirements. This is completely free of charge, with zero obligations if you decide this isn’t the right time for you.
Step 3: Pencil in regular 50-minute sessions, which we can do over the phone or video call. Included is a shared Google Sheet, where we can record your progress and add helpful suggestions, tips and info; think of it as your personal health encyclopedia.
How often you’d like to have your sessions, and what we cover, is up to you. Your health is worth more than a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach; we all have various commitments and life circumstances, and, let’s be honest, different budgets.
Email me if you have any enquiries.

Additional Extras
To supplement our regular sessions, the following additional extras are available to purchase for £50 each:
Services - Workplace Health
The health of your workplace is the key to keeping the cogs of your business turning. I work with a number of organisations providing tailored workshops and interactive presentations, supporting either their staff or their service users.
As well as the limitless benefits these sessions provide, such as enhancing overall wellbeing, performance, morale and motivation, you can be assured that all topics covered are rooted in evidence-based research, empowering your workforce or service users with the knowledge to confidently take control of their health.
As a CIPD-qualified HR professional in a previous life, with experience in developing and implementing workplace health programmes, I will work with what your organisation currently offers its team to ensure that my service aligns with your values.
Examples of topics covered with organisations I have previously worked with include:
Gut
health
Ultra-processed foods
Stress
Neurodiverse Nutrition
Presentations are often shorter (1-2 hours) with an optional activity and resource for delegates to keep. This is best suited to workplaces with limited time and/or resources, and provides a basic understanding of the topic of your choice that is important to you and your business. I can offer this as a one-off, or as part of a regular series.
Workshops are often longer (3-6 hours) with 2 activities and a range of resources for delegates to keep. They usually delve deeper into your chosen topic, or intertwine more than one topic to demonstrate the links between them. The activities and resources provide practical support to encourage delegates to implement healthy behaviours with simplicity.
Workplace Health Pricing
My hourly rate starts at £100 for group presentations and workshops, plus a flat fee for the development of the presentation/workshop, activities and resources, to be agreed upon post-consultation.
I do not offer set packages as each organsiation’s requirements vary, therefore my services are bespoke. Please email me with your enquiry outlining the following:
- Presentation or workshop
- Anticipated group size
- Desired topic(s)
- Inclusion of activities, resources and materials
- Budget
