Changing People's lives....one person at a time!
My name is Heba Al-Zuhair. Following years of academic research into the effects of diet on the body…and months on a plan to help lose the 40lbs I’d gained while studying (!) I opened the Nutrition and Wellness Centre in March 2012. I gained a Master of Science in Nutrition & Public Health and a Master of Philosophy in Osteoporosis Prevention through my studies, and from January 2011 having lost my own excess weight I began helping through the Weight Loss Challengers in Bath.
I wanted to open a wellness centre so I could advise people on the best nutrition programmes to follow, what food to eat and how much of it, and why particular foods are so important.
Now I do this daily and I love it! I want to help people achieve the body they need to have a long and happy life. It’s not just about losing weight – it’s the right balance of weight, body fat and muscle. The coaching and continuous support I offer helps my clients maintain focus, achieve the best results and lead healthier lives.
So if you are overweight, lack energy, have digestive or immunity problems or need advice on sports nutrition then get in touch today – I can help!
Call me to book an appointment today and take a step to a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I think Heba is just so enthusiastic and supportive to everybody regardless of how big their challenge is or how motivated. I think she’s really good at motivating and encouraging everybody. This is my second challenge I’ve done with her but I’m a therapist myself and it was because people kept coming to me telling me about this person that I went in the first place, it was because so many of my clients said how lovely she was, how genuinely friendly and supportive that made me want to go along and meet her. I think it is just that little reminder about what you should be doing, that conscience on your shoulder but she does it in such a way that you don’t feel you’re being lectured, you do feel you’re being encouraged and coaxed along. She’s just very passionate about what she does.
Very Very happy. I’ve been to many slimming clubs in my life, well she’s made me look at things in a totally different way, particularly on the health side rather than losing weight, more about changing your lifestyle. Very supportive, excellent, I would recommend her to anyone. I look and I feel much better, I’ve lost weight and because I’ve changed my way of eating I feel better in myself. I’ve been a trained nurse, I’m fully aware that she’s very well informed and she’s so knowledgeable but she’s got a fantastic way about her.
It’s been really good, have really enjoyed going. I find it is a really supportive group and probably the main thing for me in addition to that is that it is very educational so it’s like a learning process. I‘ve been attending since last September and I’ve lost 26 pounds in weight. I‘ve felt really encouraged by the results and feel really supported, not just because it is a group but the support from Heba personally is really encouraging.
I have been happy. Heba’s helped both with general health improvement and with weight loss. I would recommend her. I suppose it is her general approach to it which is very professional, very caring in a way. I feel quite well looked after!
She’s a lovely, lovely woman who never gives up on you, she’s always happy to give her time, she’s absolutely fantastic. Really nurturing, really kind, she’s brilliant. I’m a bit of a no-hoper really. I haven’t lost mega weight but my eating habits have completely changed, I’m really happy, I get tempted now and again but she doesn’t let you quit. She’s brilliant. At the moment I’m doing the ‘Reduce your body age course’, I’ve done the ‘weight loss challenge’, I didn’t lose loads of weight but I’ve altered my body composition and I just eat so much better now and just feel so much better, so its not all about the scales really. I would really recommend her to anybody. She’ll spend lots of time researching and finding the best solution for them.
Very happy. She helped me lose quite a lot of weight, and she’s there in support of me whenever I want to see her - she’s there for me all the time.
Such a super wellness coach - the enthusiasm Heba has keeps you on track. If you want to be healthy Heba is your woman!!
Heba is a very enthusiastic coach whose encouragement helps you through the challenge. It has given me a good start to weight loss.
I highly recommend the Nutrition and Wellness Centre. The service and support is second to none. It has had a hugely positive inpact on my life and would recommend it to anyone who wants to eat better and feel better.
Friendly, supportive atmosphere. Learnt so much about nutrition which really helped and inspired me.
This challenge over the last 12 weeks has turned my life around.
Great course, would be helpful to have more information to refer to later.
I recommend the course. Lots of great information. Learn something new every challenge.
Very good and informative, could do with a few more handouts to refer back to over topics including statistics. Well done, thank you Heba.
Heba is a real expert in helping people to lose weight and get healthy and keep the weight off. She explains it all so anyone can understand, and pays attention to small details that make big differences.
I was desperate to lose weight and saw an advert for Weight Loss Challenge so decided to give it a go! Heba was extremely welcoming and so enthusiastic it was a pleasure to come to see her every week it did not feel as though I was at a weight loss class. Heba also made time to see me on a one to one basis as often as I wanted and this helped as I could see where I was making mistakes and how to rectify them. After listening to her talks I realised that losing weight was not my key concern but getting healthy was- again Heba told me how to do this. I am now halfway through my second challenge and still as motivated as ever thanks to Heba's continuous support.
I have been on the 12 week weight challenge and feel 100% better . would recommend this to anyone. can be hard but the benefits are worth it. it has changed my life for the better. motivation from Heba is fantastic, at no time are you left to flounder. support is always there. 5 star!
i have been coming here for the last 10 weeks and cant believe how well i feel. weight loss is brilliant, but the other benefits are amazing. cant praise it highly enough - feel 100% fitter even although I have a long way to go. nothing but praise and would recommend it to anyone. pat
I started my work placement with Heba about 2 months ago as part of my Sport Health and Fitness degree course which I am studying at Bath University and the City of Bath College. I wanted to work somewhere which embraced a holistic approach to health and fitness, incorporating the physical, mental and nutritional aspects of health. Heba does this. She is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work for. I am enjoying my work here, learning lots and meeting some wonderful people :O) Sam
I contacted Heba around July last year for her weight loss program. Iâve lost almost 40lbs. Sheâs stays with you. Sheâs extremely interested. I donât think sheâs really in it it for the money, sheâs in it to help people, sheâs more interested in the individual and how they are progressing. On my first visit to her I took my wife because no matter what the programme was going to be my wife would be involved, and Heba was more than helpful in sitting down with us and explaining what it was all about. Following that I went to her roughly on a weekly basis, she would go through everything, weigh us and talk us through our results, the records Iâd kept on what Iâd eaten and why, she gave me quite a lot of guidance on what I should or shouldnât be eating. I suppose now since about February I donât see her regularly but she now rings, we agree a time usually once a week or 10 days, Iâd recommend her without any question. I think she will be an asset to London Road!
I started with Heba around October last year with her Weight Loss Challenge. Her service has been fantastic. Sheâs not like normal slimming groups, sheâs more about changing how you eat as a lifetime thing rather than jus losing weight and going back to normal, itâs a lifestyle more than a slimming class. Iâve had noticeable results and Iâm really happy with it. Sheâs very supportive, you get lots of support from her. Her enthusiasm is contagious, sheâs very enthusiastic about it all. I think she is good value for money.
Heba is a neighbour of mine and we got chatting after she finished her studies at the Bristol University. She told me that she was going to set up a Nutrition and Wellness Centre. I was very interested in Heba's business venture and joined one of her 12 week Weight Loss Challenge. I enjoyed the weekly meetings but found the one to one sessions with Heba most beneficial. It is like having your own personal trainer for nutrition. Heba devised a personal eating plan for me and I must say with her help and support I am doing very well. I lost weight, lost body fat and gained muscle. I am feeling very well. Heba is a people person. Her company is enjoyable. Her enthusiasm, intelligence, professionalism and her wish to help people shines through every time you meet her.
Heba is a delightful and inspiring person whose enthusiasm shines through everything she does. She is a highly qualified nutritionist and her Nutrition and Wellness Centre on the London Road is an oasis of calm, where she gives you her whole attention and really cares that you achieve what you want to. Since attending her Weight Loss Challenge classes, I have lost the weight I wanted to lose, changed my daily eating habits for good, and have much more energy. You can either attend her weekly classes or see her on a one to one basis. She has honestly changed my life for the better, and I thoroughly recommend her services.
I was aware of my poor eating habits and not sure how to address the issue â due to my busy lifestyle Iâd often skip meals (especially breakfast) and when I did eat, it was often not the right types of food. I didnât want to start a traditional âdietâ as I wanted help to change my habits in the long term and create a healthy view of food, understanding what is good and what is bad, whilst addressing a few key personal health challenges. Heba was the perfect solution. As a qualified nutritionist, she has a thorough understanding of health, nutrition, foods and supplements â I found her training sessions informative and life changing. Having 121 follow up support when I needed it, was very helpful. I found Heba both professional and very motivational and would highly recommend her services.
