A message from
Dr. Naresh ShanmugamMBBS, DCH, DNB (Paediatrics), FRCPCH, Diploma in Nutritional Medicine (UK), CCT (UK), CSST (UK).
As a specialised Paediatric Gastroenterologist and Nutritionist , I see how closely nutrition influences health, recovery, and everyday life. Over more than 20 years of clinical practice, I have also seen how difficult it can be for individuals and families to find reliable advice suited to their needs.
During my specialist training in the United Kingdom, I pursued a Diploma in Nutritional Medicine at the University of Surrey. This strengthened my belief that nutrition deserves a central place in healthcare.
That belief has shaped Nutri Consult.
My role is to guide the platform’s vision and structure, bringing a clinical perspective to how we connect people with qualified nutrition professionals. Together with our advisory board, we aim to make personalised nutritional care easier to find—whether you want to improve your everyday health or need support for a specific medical condition.
Why Nutriconsulte?
Qualified advice. Personal care. Someone you can trust.
The internet is full of nutrition advice, but knowing what to trust can be difficult. Misleading claims, misinterpreted information, and food myths are widely shared—often by people without appropriate qualifications or knowledge of nutrition. Repetition can make these claims seem credible, leading people to follow advice that may be unsuitable for their health.
AI-generated advice adds to this flood of information, often without a qualified professional who understands the individual’s medical history, nutritional needs, and circumstances.
Many platforms focus on general wellness, healthy eating, and weight management. People living with a medical condition often need something more specific: nutritional care that takes their diagnosis, treatment, and individual needs into account. Finding the right professional for that support can be challenging.
Nutri Consult was created to help people find reliable, personalised nutritional care from qualified professionals.
Every dietitian on our platform has their qualifications and relevant experience reviewed by our advisory board before being approved to offer consultations.
Whether you need guidance for everyday health and wellness or support for a specific medical condition, you can connect with a professional who understands your needs and speaks your preferred language.
Because when it comes to your health, expertise matters.
Nutrition as clinical practice.
Provide reliable, evidence-based nutrition consultation that respects both current science and each person's daily life, culture and context.
