Michele Kingston BA hons, BSc Nut Med, mBANT, mCNHC
I am a qualified nutritional therapist and functional medicine practitioner giving face to face and online consultations in St Albans. I have been practising for over 14 years. I have worked with hundreds of patients, both adults and children, men and women, from around the world, with a variety of different illnesses and needs. Over this time I have seen amazing results and also I am living proof that nutritional medicine can have a powerful impact on health.
The beauty of nutritional therapy is that it can have a positive impact on so many health problems. Conditions I have worked with, but not limited to:
- Metabolic diseases such as pre-diabetes, diabetes, fatty liver and high cholesterol
- Food intolerances/sensitivities
- Needing to lose weight and needing to put on weight
- Irritable bowel syndrome- IBS, SIBO, reflux and other gut disorders
- Perimenopause and menopause
- Autoimmune disease like Hashimoto’s and rheumatoid arthritis
- Chronic fatigue syndrome /ME/fibromyalgia
- Premenstrual Stress(PMS) and hormonal imbalance
- Cognitive decline / dementia
- Depression and anxiety
- Headaches/ migraines
- Skin complaints including eczema and acne
I also work with clients who would like to prevent health issues and optimise their nutrition perhaps for sport or a busy life.
I have a degree in Nutritional Medicine, which means I am trained to understand how foods and their nutrients influence the function and health of the body. My training also includes functional medicine, which is the practice of identifying and addressing the root cause of disease.
I am a member of the British Association of Nutritional Therapy (BANT) and Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC), which means I have trained to the highest national occupation standards, carry professional insurance and will continue to train through monitored professional development programmes.
For 7 years I was part of the clinical team at Breakspear Medical Group, a world renowned environmental medicine clinic, where I collaborated with doctors, nurses and other practitioners.
I also work as a Health and Wellbeing coach within the NHS, where I have learned more skills for supporting patients and building their confidence, so they can make changes to diet and lifestyle.
My experience also includes giving talks to public and businesses and writing health articles for various publications.
6 years ago I founded The Nutritional Medicine Clinic consulting with patients online, phone and in person. To find out more, please contact me
“Struggling with energy levels and sugar dependency, Michele’s expertise helped me work out a food plan that worked for me and my lifestyle. Michele gave me a realistic plan that was accessible and flexible to social activities & indulgence; she always welcomed feedback and honesty to allow for optimum guidance so I never felt in trouble if I went off track! I still use her eating plan every day, it has helped massively with my energy levels in the morning, instead of that sugar dive and reaching for a quick chocolate hit, Michele created a nutrition plan that keeps me alert throughout the morning and matches my natural sugar levels so I no longer have that craving. Through small nutrition steps Michele’s advice and expertise has really helped many areas of my life: including energy and mood. I would recommend her to anyone from specialist cases to those just wanting a boost!”.

Michele has been a life saver. In the past +year I have been working with Michele and I can’t believe how much we have covered in this time. Michele has listened and understood all my worries and concerns, focused on my own personal health and wellbeing situation, and made each learning process manageable and understandable meaning I can sustain a healthy balance with food and lifestyle choices. No two sessions were the same meaning maximum information and I’m so grateful for everything I have learned and taken on board since working with Michele.
