Ian Craig
Exercise Physiologist and Nutritional Therapist, founder of the Centre for Integrative Sports Nutrition
Ian Craig MSc DipCNE FBANT is the founder of the Centre for Integrative Sports Nutrition (CISN) and course leader of its online postgraduate-level courses. With joint academic backgrounds in exercise physiology and nutritional therapy, and a long career as a middle-distance athlete and coach, he has been developing the concept of integrative sports nutrition for the past twenty years: a discipline that considers both the health and performance of an athlete from an integrative health perspective.
He is co-editor of the textbook Integrative Sport and Exercise Nutrition with Professor Justin Roberts of Anglia Ruskin University, published by Routledge in 2025, and co-author of Wholesome Nutrition For You with his wife, natural chef Rachel Jesson, published by Struik Lifestyle in 2016. He edited Functional Sports Nutrition magazine for twelve years. As co-founder of the Nutritional Institute he is a clinical practitioner, based in his native Scotland and online. His client cases range from nutritionally supporting recreational and elite athletes to exercise- and lifestyle-induced health imbalances, including overtraining, chronic fatigue and autoimmunity.
He gained his BSc in Physiology and Sports Science from the University of Glasgow, his MSc in Exercise Physiology from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and his BSc in Nutritional Therapy at the Centre for Nutrition Education and Lifestyle Management, validated by Middlesex University in London. He is a fellow and professional member of the British Association for Applied Nutrition and Nutritional Therapy (BANT).

COMING SOONThe future of personalized health
Health isn't built in a day. It's built through years of small decisions, changing bodies, and evolving needs.

Built by women for women

Your personal board of experts
No single expert has every answer. Build a trusted team of experts that grows with you, bringing together different perspectives for every stage of your life.
How does it work?
Connect your wearable or log your sleep, meals and workouts. Each morning Ottavia reads your night and your day, applies Ian Craig's methods where they fit, and gives you one clear plan. Ask anything during the day; the answers use your own data.
What do I get with Ian Craig's subscription?
Ian Craig's published method, applied by Ottavia to your own sleep, training and meals every day. You see where that work shaped a message, every time.
Why can't I get this from ChatGPT?
ChatGPT answers from general knowledge and forgets you between questions. Ottavia reasons from your actual data, every day, and applies a named expert's published method with attribution. It is not advice in general; it is about your own Tuesday.
Is this medical advice?
No. Ian Craig guides and educates through Ottavia, and never diagnoses or prescribes.
Do I talk to Ian Craig directly?
No. Ottavia has read Ian Craig's published work and applies it inside your guidance. Your questions go to Ottavia; that thinking comes back in the answer, attributed.
What happens to my health data?
Your data stays in your Ottavia account and is used only to guide you. The third-party AI services Ottavia uses never learn who you are: they see the health context needed to answer you, never your name or contact details. Your data is never sold, never used to train AI models, and is deleted from those services when you delete your account.
Does Ian Craig see my data?
No. Experts contribute their methods to Ottavia; they never see individual users or their data.
Do I need a wearable?
Ottavia works best with Apple Watch, Garmin or Google Health. You can also log sleep, meals and workouts yourself.
What does it cost, and can I cancel?
The price is shown clearly before you subscribe. Manage or cancel anytime in the Experts hub; you keep access until the end of the period you paid for.
