About me
Alix Tomkinson is a registered nutritional therapist with over 20 years of experience in the field of nutrition. With a degree in Human Nutrition and a diploma in Nutritional Therapy, Alix blends deep academic knowledge with practical, results-driven strategies to help her clients reclaim their health and vitality. She is a fully accredited member of both BANT (British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine) and the CNHC and remains dedicated to ongoing professional development to stay at the cutting edge of nutritional science.
Specialising in weight loss and gut health, Alix works primarily with women who are balancing demanding lives, hormonal shifts and long-standing health concerns. Whether it’s stubborn weight that won’t budge, bloating and digestive discomfort, or hormonal imbalances that impact energy and mood, Alix offers targeted, compassionate support rooted in both evidence and experience. Her signature 12-week programme, Midlife Metabolic Mastery, is built around a personalised, sustainable framework that helps women achieve real, lasting results - without restrictive diets or quick fixes.
Alix runs her own hybrid clinic based in South Staffordshire, offering face-to-face appointments as well as virtual consultations for clients across the UK and beyond. Known for her warm, no-nonsense approach, she’s helped hundreds of women rebuild their health from the inside out -without fads, guilt, or unrealistic expectations, through a personalised, science-backed framework.
After working in food product development for over two decades, including 12 years at Cadbury, Alix made a bold career change. In December 2020, Alix was offered voluntary redundancy from her role in new product development at Cadbury. Seeing this as the perfect opportunity to follow her passion, she founded Alix Tomkinson Nutrition and Health, her nutritional therapy business. This marked a pivotal career shift - one that allowed her to bring together her background in food innovation and her lifelong interest in holistic wellbeing.
Alix’s career in product innovation continues to influence her work. She is founder of The Healthy Chocolatier, a luxury subscription box that empowers people to make healthy, indulgent chocolates at home. The box blends her love of nutrition with her passion for premium ingredients, offering a delicious way to enjoy chocolate without compromising on health. It’s a perfect example of her mission: to make health enjoyable, indulgent, and sustainable.
In addition to her clinical work, Alix has contributed to platforms such as Dr Vegan and been featured in Women and Home, The Daily Mail, Loaded Magazine, City Life Lichfield/Rugeley, BBC Radio Stoke’s morning show and several health-focused podcasts. Whether through her 1:1 consultations, signature programme, or upcoming product line, Alix is committed to making healthy living simple, empowering, and deeply satisfying.
Outside of her practice, Alix loves to travel and spend quality time with her partner and 13yr old twin boys - balancing business and family life with joy, curiosity, and a healthy dose of chocolate.
