About Cristina

I am a UK-registered Dietitian specialising in paediatric nutrition, eating disorders, home enteral feeding (HEF), weight management and sustainable weight loss. My clinical background within the NHS allows me to support children, young people, adults and families with complex nutritional needs through compassionate, evidence-based guidance. I combine clinical dietetics with a practical, behaviour-focused approach — helping people improve their relationship with food while achieving realistic and long-term results. I offer personalised nutrition plans, structured weight-loss programmes, meal planning, and lifestyle coaching for clients of all ages. My academic research explores the role of diet in red blood cell disorders (sickle cell and thalassaemia) and its connection with eating behaviours, which I have presented at conferences and continue to develop through collaborative work. On AMA, I provide holistic, accessible and personalised nutrition support — whether your goal is improving family nutrition, addressing clinical conditions, building healthier habits, or achieving safe and sustainable weight loss without extreme diets.
