There is no magic pill for health and longevity, but over time the food on the end of your fork makes a dramatic difference in how well you live, physically and mentally, and how long you live.

The balance of scientific evidence is clear: the more whole, plant-based foods we can enjoy, the better our health will be. But what does this mean exactly? Well, that can be different for each individual. Gone are the days where we define ourselves as either vegetarian or not, vegan or not. By working with me, you will discover what good nutrition is and how to make it work for your own lifestyle.

So, if you want to:

  • Stop counting calories and lose weight
  • Learn how to make healthy and delicious foods
  • Decipher fact from fiction when it comes to nutrition advice

Then contact me for a free 15 minute discovery call now!

What is a Registered Dietitian?

Anyone can provide nutrition advice and in fact almost everyone does! Registered Dietitians are unique because they are guided by the latest science, ultimately protecting the public by relying on evidence-based messages.

 

I was trained in Canada where dietitians are regulated nutrition professionals. “Dietitian” is a protected title by law, like a nurse or physician. To ensure you are accessing a qualified nutrition professional, always look for the credentials “RD”, Registered Dietitian.
