Hello, please call me Jules
Also known as mum, dietitian, nutritionist & food nerd
With a Masters in Nutrition & Dietetics, I am a clinical practising member of Dietitians Australia + Accredited Practising Dietitian & Nutritionist. I have undertaken postgrad specialty training in fertility and prenatal nutrition + FODMAPs for IBS and endometriosis through ELN Alliance and Monash University.
I have my own two small humans, so I understand the delicate balance of juggling food science, healthy eating and meal practicality.
That’s probably why my nutrition philosophy is whole foods AND soul foods.
