But with Smart Health, you can access top tips from nutritionists and receive tailored nutrition plans, designed by a team of experts.

All you need to do is answer a questionnaire, detailing what your goals are and a little bit about your current health. Once this is done, one of Smart Health’s nutritionists will give you a call to chat through the details you provided, and get to know a bit more about you and your habits when it comes to eating.

Once you’ve spoken to the nutritionist, they will provide you with your very own menu plan, packed full of meals and snack ideas. It’s as simple as that!

Health check

Keeping up to date with your own health is so important and with Smart Health, you can get an online health check, keeping you in the know.

You will also be given tailored medical, dietary and lifestyle recommendations based on your health check.

Second medical opinion

Nurses, doctors, specialists and any other medical professional have a job to do and trusting them is important. But if you were diagnosed with a critical illness, you might want a second medical opinion - Smart Health gives you the opportunity to do this.

One in three people who have received a Smart Health second medical opinion have had recommendations to change their treatment and one in eight received a change in diagnosis.*

Once you have run through all the details of your current diagnosis with your dedicated Smart Health GP, your information will then be passed onto a world-leading specialist who will go through everything in relation to your diagnosis.
