Dawn Rowland
I help women over 50 future-proof their health through nutrition and lifestyle medicine. Working with me, they transition from AGEING to AGELESS.
I work as a Local Nutritionist in Corsham as well as an online Nutritionist supporting women remotely.
the passion to do my work
This quote from one of the world’s leading nutrition doctors, gives me the passion to do my work:
“Food definitely is medicine. If we move the UK from its current diet to an optimum diet, we would reduce chronic disease by about 70%. There’s not many medicines that would have this effect at a population level”.
– Tim Spectre

It is worth absolutely every penny and minute invested. I now feel incredible vitality and energy and have lost a stack of weight (a bonus). I’ll continue to work with Dawn, tweaking all things nutritionally as my journey of gut health enlightenment progresses.”
– Rachel Smith

– Thomas A. Edison
How to choose the right nutrition services for you?

Click to reveal the conditions I can support with:
Gut Health package for a HEALTHY gut & DIGESTION
Ideal for addressing...
✅ Digestive issues: If you struggle with bloating, constipation, diarrhea, or discomfort after eating, this package provides targeted strategies to ease symptoms and support a healthier, more balanced digestive system.
✅ Age-related gut changes: As we get older, our gut microbiome naturally shifts. And so do our nutrient needs. This package supports a diverse, resilient microbiome and promotes long-term digestive health
✅ Tired-all-the-time: If you often feel fatigued or sluggish, your gut health could be the missing link. A well-balanced gut enhances nutrient absorption, helping to restore your energy and vitality.
✅ Frequent infections: If you struggle with frequent illnesses, inflammation, or slow recovery, your gut health could be playing a role. Since a significant portion of the immune system resides in the gut, improving its balance can help regulate inflammation and strengthen your overall health.
✅ Low mood and anxiety: If you experience anxiety, low mood, or stress, your gut health could be a contributing factor. Research shows a strong link between the gut and mood regulation, and addressing imbalances may help improve emotional well-being.
METABOLIC Health package for HEALTHY AGEING and better energy
Ideal for addressing...
✅ Weight management – Focuses on nutritious, colorful meals that are easy to prepare and enjoyable. This is not a restrictive diet but a sustainable approach to nourishing yourself.
✅ Slow Metabolism & Low Energy – Supports a more efficient metabolism, helping to combat fatigue and increase sustained energy levels throughout the day.
✅ Blood Sugar Imbalances – Helps stabilize blood sugar levels to prevent energy crashes, sugar cravings, and long-term metabolic issues like insulin resistance.
✅ Out-of-range health markers – Helps reduce inflammation and improve key blood markers such as blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels, lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
✅ Hormonal Imbalances – Supports hormonal health, particularly in midlife women, to improve mood, energy, sleep, and metabolism.
✅ Chronic Inflammation – Reduces systemic inflammation, which is linked to conditions like arthritis, brain fog, and accelerated aging.
MUSCULOSKELETAL HEALTH PACKAGE FOR A STRONG BODY
Ideal for addressing...
✅ Loss of Bone Density & Increased Fracture Risk – Supports bone strength with targeted nutrition and lifestyle strategies to help prevent osteoporosis and reduce fracture risk.
✅ Muscle Loss & Weakness – Helps preserve and build lean muscle mass, essential for maintaining strength, balance, and overall mobility as you age.
✅ Joint Pain & Inflammation – Provides strategies to ease discomfort, reduce stiffness, and support cartilage health for smoother, pain-free movement.

WHY SEE A NUTRITIONIST?
HOLISTIC NUTRITIONIST
By choosing to work with a registered nutritionist, you’re ensuring that your health journey is guided by a professional. These are some of the reasons why you’d choose a registered, holistic nutritionist:
- Functional Medicine Health Analysis: You’ll experience relief and a sudden clarity about why your body has been struggling. With this understanding, you’ll feel inspired to take steps toward improving how your body functions.
- Empathetic Support: Nutritionists understand your struggles and give realistic, step-by-step guidance to help you change your habits and behaviours.
- Safe Supplement Recommendations: Nutritionists recommend professional supplements that are effective. Nutritionists cross check any interactions with any medicines you are taking.
- Targeted Nutritional Advice: Nutritionists offer advice on which nutrients your body most needs and the best foods to eat to build up those nutrient levels.
- Evidence-Based Recommendations: Advice grounded in scientific evidence from clinical studies, not the latest social media hype.
- Professional Registration: Unlike unregulated online advice, registered nutritionists undergo extensive 3-4 year education and training, including supervised practice. Registered nutritionists are members of British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and Complementary Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) and adhere to professional code of practice.
A holistic nutritionist trained in functional medicine looks beyond symptoms to find and address the root causes of your health issues. This approach means you get a personalised plan that supports your whole body, so you feel better, for longer.

How a nutritionist helps?
I don’t offer unrealistic meal plans that take ages to prepare with ingredients clients don’t like.
I help clients combine macronutrients – proteins, fats, fiber, and carbohydrates – into nourishing, satisfying meals. Each meal is thoughtfully balanced to provide the essential nutrients their body needs for better health.
My nutrition coaching helps you shift your mindset around food and nourishment, making healthy choices feel natural and sustainable. My recommendations evolve into lasting lifestyle habits, while I support, empower, and keep you accountable every step of the way.

common misconceptions
Weight Gain During Menopause Is Inevitable
This is simply not true. While hormonal shifts can make it common to gain weight, the right nutrition, movement, and lifestyle strategies can help you maintain a healthy metabolism and weight. You can feel strong, energised, and in control of your body. It’s never too late to make improvements.
To find out more, read my blog, “How to improve metabolism.”
Calcium Supplements Prevent Bone Loss
While calcium is important for bone health, it’s only one piece of the puzzle. Strong bones need a combination of key nutrients like vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin K2, along with consistent weight-bearing exercise and a well-balanced diet. You can take action to protect your bones at any age – building strength, stability, and confidence in your movement.

Supplements Can Replace a Poor Diet
No supplement can match the power of real, whole foods. While they can fill gaps, they can’t provide the full range of nutrients, fiber, and antioxidants your body needs to thrive. Whole foods are complex structures where nutrients interact in ways that enhance their absorption and health benefits. Supplements should enhance your nutrition, not replace it.

Aches, pains and loss of strength are an inevitable part of getting
Getting older doesn’t mean you have to accept constant aches, stiffness, or weakness. While changes occur with age, the right nutrition, movement, and self-care can keep your joints resilient, your muscles strong, and your body feeling energised. You can stay active, mobile, and pain-free well into later life.
To find out more, read my blog, “Aches and Pains of Ageing”.
You Just Need to Eat Less to Lose Weight
Weight loss isn’t just about eating less, it’s about eating right. Simply cutting calories can slow your metabolism, leave you feeling fatigued, and increase cravings and unhealthy food choices. Instead, focusing on nutrient-dense, balanced meals helps regulate hunger, support energy levels, and keep your body functioning at its best. Sustainable weight management isn’t about restriction, it’s about nourishment!

Joint Pain Means You Should Rest More
While rest is important during flare-ups, avoiding movement altogether can actually make joint pain worse. I recommend gentle, regular movement to keep joints lubricated, strengthen the muscles that support them, and reduce stiffness over time. The key is finding the right balance of non-weight-bearing, low-impact exercises, stretching, and targeted strength exercises to help you move with less pain and more confidence.
