Why Choose Gareth
Extensive experience and expertise
I have over thirty years’ experience working for various leading nutritional supplement companies such as FSC, GNC, Holland and Barrett, Pharmanord, Quest and Natiiv.
As well as training health store staff and other practitioners within these companies, I was responsible for formulating supplements and giving public and practitioner talks in the UK and around the world (Pakistan, Portugal, Greece, Ireland, Malta, Dubai, Nigeria) on the benefits of supplemental use, potential interactions and deficiencies that may be caused by medications.
Alongside of this, I hold my own clinics carrying out nutritional consultations and food intolerance testing. I successfully support clients of all ages, from babies to seniors, with a number of conditions including: IBS, gall bladder problems, skin issues such as psoriasis acne, eczema, menopausal and premenstrual issues, osteoarthritis, sleep deprivation, and other ailments. I specialise in sports nutrition and have supported a number of athletes and clubs over the years. I also co – authored a book ‘500 health tips’ with health journalist Hazel Courteney .
I am based in the North East but work around the UK with clinics in various health retail outlets in London, Manchester, the Midlands and Cumbria, with plans to expand to other areas in the UK. I also offer consultations and food intolerance testing in my own office in Newcastle and home visits throughout the North East and Northumberland. I am in the London area the third week of every month, and Manchester/Midlands the fourth week of every month, and available for house calls on the evenings in those areas. Please call 0777 171 9824 or use our booking form to arrange your visit.

What I do
Nutritional consultations and food intolerance testing
Food intolerance testing is carried out using the Bio Energetic Stress Test. One in five people going to their G.P are diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). What many don’t realise is that IBS is commonly triggered or exacerbated by food intolerances.
Nutritional consultations provide guidance for easing and improving various conditions through diet and possibly supplementation (often a combination of both) which can then help you turn a corner.
Many other disorders can also be linked to food intolerances:
- Acne
- Arthritis
- Asthma
- Bloating
- Constipation
- Eczema
- Fluid retention
- Hyperactivity
- Sinusitis
- Urticaria
- Nausea
- Gall Stones
- Lack of Energy
- M. E.
- Migraine
- Psoriasis
- Rashes
- Stress
- Sleep problems
- Itching
- Dizziness
- Rhinitis

Did you know..?
There are a number of common misconceptions about the causes and remedies of ailments.
Gall Stones
For example, high fat foods are automatically seen to be the cause of gall stones, whereas, commonly, there are two ‘healthy’ foods that are the common trigger…
Dairy Foods
It is widely perceived that dairy automatically improves bone density, but this is not necessarily the case…
Tomatoes
While tomatoes are seen as a superfood and are excellent at lowering the risk of certain disorders, in some people they can aggravate some common conditions…
IBS and Fibre
If you have IBS you almost certainly do need more fibre, but not all sources of fibre will be beneficial. Where it is sourced from is crucial…
Vitamin C
Vitamin C does not prevent colds or flu but can reduce the severity and duration when taken at the right level (6000-8000mgs) during the day.
Osteoporosis and Dairy
If you are sensitive to dairy it can have a negative impact on bone health. Functional calcium is available from a variety of foods, including leafy greens, hummus and soya.

testimonials
A few words from clients we have helped in the past
The old saying is ‘you are what you eat’ but I prefer ‘you are what you absorb and fail to eliminate’, but that doesn’t roll off the tongue quite so easily! I am a passionate advocate that eating the right foods for you as an individual should lead to a healthy digestive system and therefore optimum physical and mental health.
Knowledge of what is right for you and your body is key to managing your health.
“I’ve heard and read a lot about Gareth Zeal’s expertise… So, when conventional medicine was failing me, I decided to book an appointment to see Gareth. I am a lifelong sufferer of both eczema and asthma and more recently had developed debilitating headaches which were impacting my life in a negative way. After a very holistic consultation including a food intolerance test with Gareth, I was prescribed a range of natural supplements and a list of food that I have intolerances to and some much-needed guidance, which was very easy to grasp.
I have been taking the supplements for over 7 days now and following the dietary advice, I have to say, not only have I experienced zero headaches, I feel incredible. I’m less bloated, I’m sleeping better, my eyes look brighter, I actually feel human again!
I can’t recommend Gareth enough; his expertise and gentle approach have literally turned my life around in a way I never thought possible. Thank you! “
“Gareth is an absolute fountain of knowledge, giving the best advice there is. His grasp of the situation and his professionalism shine through in his consultations.
Gareth helped me with my stomach condition, helping me understand it and how I could aid and help myself through it. His advice was invaluable. “
