Michelle McKenzie
Nutritionist (BSc, ANutr)
I’m Michelle McKenzie, a Registered Associate Nutritionist (BSc, ANutr) offering personalised nutrition consultations in Hastings and online. My areas of special interest include metabolic health, gut health, fasting protocols, post-viral fatigue and healthy ageing.
My path into nutrition began after a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes in 2009, following a decade in the music industry. Living with a chronic condition shapes my approach: combining nutritional science with practical support that fits everyday life.
I graduated with first-class honours in Human Nutrition from London Metropolitan University. My research into low-carbohydrate approaches to diabetes management was published by Cambridge Journals, and I presented the findings at the Royal Society of Medicine.
I’m also the founder of The Regeneration Diet and The Regeneration Retreat, developed following my own experience of post-viral recovery. The retreat has featured in The Sunday Times, The Independent, Prima Magazine and The Evening Standard.
For over a decade, I have supported clients from my local community to Oscar and BAFTA-winning creatives.
Nutrition & Wellbeing
I offer one-to-one nutrition consultations in Hastings, East Sussex and online
The secret to healthy eating is no secret at all: fresh ingredients, cooked from scratch.
Sharing a meal with friends and family is one of life's greatest pleasures, and with so much advice about what to eat, it can be easy to lose sight of that.
Think seasonal fruit and vegetables, quality protein, fibre rich prebiotic foods, fermented foods, legumes, spices, herbs, nuts, seeds and healthy fats.
Good nutrition isn't about counting every calorie or following the latest food trend. It's about finding a way of eating that nourishes you, fits your life and feels sustainable.
It's good for you, it's good for your family and good for the planet.
Client Stories
“Michelle is an amazing person to work with, she is incredibly thorough and combines a solid understanding of the science behind the nutrition as well as a pragmatic approach as to what was achievable in my situation.
I was amazed to experience the difference it made and how quickly I started feeling stronger and more focused. She was not just a source of knowledge but also immensely supportive during this difficult time.
Her enthusiasm and positive energy made any changes to my usual diet easy and my energy levels improved as well as my general wellbeing.”

Our health isn't just about what we eat. It's about what we can digest, absorb and convert into energy.
From the food on our plates to the environments we inhabit, everything we take in influences how we function, physically, mentally and emotionally.
But nothing works in isolation. Sleep, movement, metabolic health, gut health, emotional health and the nervous system are all interconnected, each influencing the others.
Understanding these connections is the foundation of my approach.
