Holistic Dietitian & Nutritionist in Melbourne

Nutrition is a key aspect of optimal health and wellbeing that is unfortunately overlooked by many Australians due to lack of time, miseducation, stress and feeling disconnected. Your body needs to receive daily nutrients to repair, grow and to generate the energy needed for optimal function. Without these nutrients your cellular function can decline so you age faster, feel tired, fatigued, unmotivated, sore and inflamed and unable to sleep properly. As an integrative dietitian I take a holistic approach to your diet and consider all the factors that have a direct impact on your nutrition and health.


Working with the whole body and lifestyle is key to lasting health, vitality and quality of life. If you struggle and need help with any of the below concerns please book a nutritionist and dietitian consultation to start building a lifestyle that helps you heal and keeps you at your peak everyday.

What my Dietitian clients feel

I had a very positive experience seeing Anca. I learnt a great deal about my body and mind through a number of methods. My gut health improved greatly, and my attitude towards eating changed. I use her relaxation methods to help me sleep and take time for me when stress starts to increase. Not a day goes by that I don't think about what Anca taught me. Her knowledge and wisdom astounds me. Thank you.

Lisa

From day ONE Anca amazed me with her knowledge, passion and genuine care to help me reach my goals. This incredibly intelligent woman provides more than just a meal plan. She has provided me with education, counselling, referrals to top quality professionals, high quality supplements and products, a shoulder to cry on and the bare truth when I needed to hear it. She has shown me just how important nutrition is for every aspect of my well being and how resilient the human body can be once equipped with the right tools. If you are scrolling through reviews looking to make not only a change, but the right changes, Anca is the person you are looking for.

Lacey

Anca is amazing! She has a genuine interest in what you want to achieve and has a non-judgmental approach when she works with you. She has plenty of new ideas and a fresh perspective of how to live well. She really gets you thinking to challenge your assumptions on what works for you. I'd highly recommend having a session with Anca.

Benefits Of a Dietitian Consultation

What this means for you is that you will have a deep understanding of the root cause your problems and will receive personalised recommendations to address these. Having your nutrition status assessed by evaluating how your digestive system works and how other lifestyle factors such as sleep, exercise, toxicity, and stress impact your body and mind is a must for an optimal personalised nutrition strategy.

Using a personalised lifestyle approach can ensure your digestion works at its peak, you are eating according to your unique requirements and are consuming foods that directly target your needs and goals.

What is an integrative Dietitian

  • Dietitian vs Nutritionist: What's the difference and which is better?

    Dietitians are better as they undergo 5 years of specialised university training to become accredited practicing dietitians. Whilst at university, dietitians train and specialise in all things nutrition and chronic disease management.

     

    A nutritionist is a professional specialising in the study nutrition and the relationship between diet and health. They can help people develop healthy eating habits and manage various health conditions through diet, however they are limited in their ability to help with disease management like a dietitian can.

  • Do dietitians give you meal plans?

    Many dietitians will develop customised nutrition and meal plans for each client.

     

    Dietitians not only create meal plans for their clients, but they also provide education and knowledge on how to make appropriate food choices in any situation so that you can stick to your nutritional or health goals.

     

    Meal plans can also be developed to combat autoimmune and gut health issues.

  • What foods do dietitians recommend?

    Every single person will have a different food list or meal plan depending on their health goals and food sensitivities - BUT there will always be similar suggestions for most clients such as avoiding sugar, processed foods, wheat and gluten, to increase water intake and stick to whole foods.

     

    When recommending food types and creating meal plans, it's important that your dietitian creates this personalised to you and your dietary requirements.
