Specializing in plant-based nutrition + digestive health. Visit www.ohhsogreen.com to learn more about services! My name is Rachael and I am a Registered Dietitian practicing virtually across British Columbia. I strive to help clients set and reach nutrition goals that fit within their current lifestyle using evidence-based nutrition research and education. I utilize an empathetic and weight neutr
al approach that helps clients feel understood and in control of their own wellness journey. A little bit about me, my nutrition experience, and practice...
I have a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia. I completed my Dietetic Internship through the Nova Scotia Health Authority, working in various hospitals in Halifax and Dartmouth. My work experience extends into general medicine, general surgery, intensive care, cardiovascular surgery, diabetes, and gastrointestinal health. I have supported clients by providing evidence-based nutrition education for various conditions, including celiac disease and gluten-free living, irritable bowel syndrome and low FODMAPs, irritable bowel disease, kidney stones, dyslipidemia, hypertension and oncology. My personal health philosophy is that nutrition is only one component of a healthy lifestyle. Through a client-centered approach, I utilize an interdisciplinary wellness model which supports and guides individualized client care. My main areas of practice are digestive health and plant-based nutrition including vegan, vegetarian eating, plant-based sports nutrition, as well as transitioning to plant-based eating. I have over 20 years of lived experience with plant-based eating, which allows me to effectively help clients navigate plant-based eating in a simple way that provides them with the tools they need to manage their own nutrition and goals. I also work with individuals who are not plant-based, as well as provide education and support for diabetes, heart health, celiac/gluten-free, anti-inflammatory eating, kidney stones, as well as weight management through lifestyle. Thanks for stopping by! I look forward to connecting with you!
