Welcome to Total Nutrition Care
I am an accredited clinical dietitian with over 30 years experience treating many conditions using medical nutrition & diet therapy. My private practice operates on Tuesday, Friday and Saturdays in Murrumbeena and on Wednesday in Beaumaris. I am also an Adjunct Associate Professor at La Trobe University teaching dietitians and supervising nutrition research. I have also developed a special range of low carb, high protein, high fibre bikkies called Skinnybik that are enriched with hunger busting lupin (a legume) that can help with weight loss and blood glucose management.
