SHORT BIO

Jocieli is a qualified nutritionist with a passion for food and for the positive impact it can have on our physical and psychological wellbeing. She strives not only to meet her clients needs but also to pair them up with lifelong skills through a holistic approach and nutritional education.

Having completed her Bachelor’s degree at the Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul/Brazil, in Nutrition and Dietetics, Jocieli has set her sights on improving the health of Sydney with her vast knowledge and enthusiasm for an active lifestyle (with a little South American flavour).
She has helped clients with a range of nutritional needs from weight management to general wellbeing. Whilst having expertise in public health nutrition and community health, she also has a particular interest in sports nutrition focusing on recovery, hydration, making weight and supplementation to improve performance.

Jo’s “hands on” approach is one that will not be forgotten, as she will not only be there to guide you through your journey but give you that personal experience to form a relationship which you can feel comfortable in. Consultations will not be limited to the office as food shopping tours will be on the cards as well as involvement in your kitchen.

She believes that it is never too late to start on your journey to a healthier self. And that the food we eat shouldn’t become a chore, but an experience every time we sit down to dine.
