My name is Bex Ward and I’m a qualified nutritionist. Nutrition is an ever-changing and often very confusing landscape and I am passionate about coaching people so they are empowered to make choices that allow them to reach their goals, whether they are weight loss, sports performance or optimal health, without making unnecessary sacrifices or overcomplicating things. I help people build long-term habits, fuel their body for exercise and have a great relationship with food that means they know that no food is off limits. My hunger for knowledge and determination to turn information into easy to follow advice allows my clients to not only get results, but be empowered to continue to manage their nutrition on their own.

Having come to a bit of a crossroads in my life & career, I was looking at my Instagram feed one day when I realised that nearly all the content was food related. This lead me to a bit of an epiphany: “Why don’t I become a nutrition coach?!”  So I researched the most reputable courses and wanting to learn from the best, I signed up to MNU (Mac Nutrition Uni). After 12 amazing months being engrossed in the fundamentals of nutrition and how to be a successful coach, I qualified as a fully certified nutritionist and started Balanced Nutrition. I knew for a long time that I wanted my company to be called ‘Balanced Nutrition’ because I have a strong belief that so many good things in life come down to finding a balance, especially when it comes to food.

Nutrition and sport have both played huge parts in my life for more than 25 years now and are as prevalent in my routine as ever; and having been involved in amateur sport for more than 20 years, my passion for both has grown year on year. I love to help athletes understand how to fuel their body effectively so they can get absolutely everything out of their training & competitions, and increase their confidence in their performance.
