Hannah Richards is a renowned nutritionist, accomplished author, and the driving force behind The Best Possible You and The Gut Clinic . With over a decade of expertise, Hannah has dedicated her career to unravelling the intricate connections between the gut, brain, and emotional well-being, carving a niche for herself as a specialist in the gut-brain axis. Her transformative approach has helped thousands of individuals achieve optimal health, making her a sought-after expert in nutrition, digestive health, and emotional wellness.

The Emotional Gut Specialist

Hannah's passion lies in understanding and addressing the "emotional gut"—the complex interplay between emotions, mental health, and digestive function. Her deep commitment to helping people navigate this delicate balance has led her to focus on three key areas of digestive dysfunction: constipation, acid reflux, and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). These conditions, often dismissed or misunderstood, are central to her mission of empowering individuals to reclaim their health through practical, sustainable, and science-backed methods.

The Gut-Brain Axis: Hannah’s Expertise

Hannah’s work is rooted in the science of the gut-brain axis—the bidirectional communication between the gut and the brain that governs digestion, mood, cognition, and overall health. She believes an unsettled gut can lead to emotional imbalances and vice versa. This philosophy underpins her holistic approach, which emphasises the importance of addressing both health's gut physical and emotional aspects.

Through years of research and practice, Hannah has developed a unique methodology that combines cutting-edge nutritional science with a compassionate understanding of human behaviour. Her approach delves deep into the root causes of digestive issues, tackling the symptoms and underlying stressors, lifestyle habits, and emotional triggers that exacerbate them.

A Personal Mission

Hannah’s journey into nutrition was fueled by her own experiences with digestive health challenges. She understands firsthand the frustration of living with persistent gut issues and the impact they can have on every aspect of life—from energy levels to mental clarity to emotional resilience. This personal connection drives her empathetic and practical approach to supporting her clients, who range from busy professionals to individuals navigating complex health conditions.
