Now you can eat without second-guessing every bite
Registered dietitian and nutritionist in Norfolk specialising in gut health, food allergies and eating disorders.
I offer calm, evidence-based one-to-one support online across the UK and face to face at my Norwich office.
Feeling anxious about food?
It’s easy to get stuck in a cycle of Googling symptoms, cutting foods, and still feeling unsure of what’s actually going on.
Hi, I’m Sejal Jacob, a Dietitian (and Nutritionist) based in Norfolk, supporting clients UK-wide online. I help you reduce symptoms and anxiety around food by giving you a clear, evidence-based plan that’s realistic, safe and not overwhelming.
I’ve worked in dietetics for over 15 years, with specialist experience in gastroenterology, eating disorders and food allergy. I’m also completing a Master’s in Allergy, which is incredibly helpful when symptoms are complex and overlap.
"I had been struggling with IBS for years. It was really difficult being a uni student to manage my symptoms. I met Sejal and with her help and guidance on low fodmap diet, my symptoms have gone and I have better understanding of what I can and cannot eat. I feel I have got my life back and am able to enjoy my food and time with friends and family. Thanks Sejal for your help."

If your symptoms overlap, don’t worry. Reach out, and I’ll help you gain some clarity around what might be going on.

Ongoing bloating, pain, IBS/IBD symptoms, unpredictable flare-ups and other gut problems.
Food allergy
Support for suspected or confirmed food allergy, complex symptoms and anxiety-driven avoidance.
Eating disorders
Calm, clinical, non-judgemental support for restrictive eating, food anxiety and binge/purge behaviours.
"Sejal has helped me pick through all the conflicting messages from the press/diet clubs/social media about what a good balanced way of eating is from the view of a qualified medical professional. With that expertise she was able to take into account what would be best in relation to my health conditions. Sejal is great at providing no-nonsense, simple strategies for healthy eating."

For organisations and healthcare services
I also provide freelance/contract dietetic support to services and organisations.
"I have had a long history of digestive problems and after a colonoscopy late last year decided to try the dietary path (not something, oddly, that doctor or specialist seemed interested in). I contacted Sejal and she was most helpful, after meeting me and putting me onto the Low Fodmap diet. Not the easiest, but I'm no longer on ANY regular medication, bowels are more regular than in a long time and other bad symptoms are gone. Thank you Sejal."

What’s the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?
Many people search for “Nutritionist” when what they actually want is clinical support. I’m a clinical dietitian, but I use both terms to help you find me.
The simple difference is that Dietitian is a legally protected title. Dietitians use up-to-date scientific research to assess and treat nutrition-related problems, and are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), which regulates health professionals. “Nutritionist” isn’t regulated in the same way and can mean different things to different people.
If you’re dealing with complex symptoms, allergies, or an eating disorder, it’s important to choose someone with clinical training and accountability.
