About me

Introduction	Welcome to my blog. I'm a registered dietitian who has been practicing in British Columbia, Canada, for 21 years. Most of my career has been spent as a clinical dietitian at a large downtown hospital in Vancouver treating people with severe eating disorders, primarily anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. However, over two years ago, I began writing a food and nutrition column, called Food Talk, for the Vancouver Courier community newspaper. The biggest reason I write for the Courier is to help the public make sense of the copious amounts of contradicting nutrition information available to us in the media. As a nutritionist, it's frustrating to watch people spend too much of their precious time, energy and money on bogus nutrition advice. I started this blog to provide readers with a no- nonsense approach to eating and living well. And since I'm an avid home cook, you'll also see the occasional yummy recipe.
