I understand that food is one of the joys of life; but unfortunately many people cannot enjoy this experience, because of eating disorders or other related lifestyle problems. I would like to support you on your journey to a healthy lifestyle in a realistic and practical way!
I graduated as a Dietitian at NWU and completed my community service in 2005, whereafter I obtained my Master’s degree in Dietetics. My professional career as dietitian started at the Department of Health, where I was soon promoted to Assistant Director for Nutrition in the NW province.
Since I always had the desire to run my own business, I successfully built my own Dietetic Private Practice. While running my practice, I started an online business in Wellness and Lifestyle under the Afrikaans brand “La Ferm” and English brand “ShakeItOff” in partnership with a Biokineticist.
We have built this company into a successful online business with a combined following of 9573 people. I also had the opportunity to become involved in the corporate world of Mining and Industry: designing, presenting, implementing and evaluating Corporate wellness and Nutritional programs in various companies.
I am a CDE (Centre for Diabetes and Endocrinology) trained Dietitian and was for a period of 10 years part of the CDE Lichtenburg where I consulted and supported patients.
Besides my knowledge and experience in Dietetics, I keep myself up to date with evidence-based nutrition and wellness research, and continuous professional development.
This enables me to provide my clients with accurate information and appropriate treatment.
I also make use of advanced technology in my practice:

Even if two people have the same height and weight, it doesn’t mean that they have the same fat and muscle mass. With body composition, we can discover more about our body than with only a BMI- assessment.
The InBody Test provides a comprehensive view of your body composition balance.
This method is effective and efficient when it comes to measuring body water, proteins, minerals and body fat, which are the components of the human body that closely relate to the status of our health. It is more than numbers on the scale: Body composition evaluation can provide an accurate reflection of your overall health and wellness. Bodyweight alone does not account for how much fat a person is carrying inside. Some fat is visible in the mirror (subcutaneous fat), but other fat is deeper and surrounds the organs. This deeper and harder-to-identify fat can significantly impact the body’s functioning. Overall, high body fat levels cause health risks for certain diseases. Body fat also impacts on hormone function, insulin levels, and many other body systems.
If you want a comprehensive assessment of your health and wellness, body composition analysis is the best option. A carefully designed plan to address body composition can significantly alter a patient’s health for the better. The first step in treatment is identification. The InBody Test is a high-tech solution for regular assessment of body composition and identification of body fat changes.

Sports nutrition plays a key role in optimising the beneficial effects of physical activity, whether you are a bodybuilder, a professional athlete in training, or just exercising to improve your mental and physical health.
Making informed decisions regarding your nutrition and hydration can result in improved performance, injury prevention and quicker recovery. However, it is difficult to know where to start with so much conflicting information readily available.

Bloating, excessive gas, reflux, heartburn, diarrhoea and constipation are common symptoms of an unhealthy gut, and your diet plays a key role in managing these symptoms.
I have a special interest in gut health and irritable bowel syndrome and can help you to establish which foods are triggering symptoms.
A tailored meal plan that is balanced and nutritionally complete can help reduce the symptoms mentioned above, improve your quality of life, and start your journey to better gastro-intestinal health.
It is scientifically proved that your gut and your brain are connected – what happens in the one can affect the other. The neurotransmitter Serotonin is produced in the brain and stimulates feelings of happiness in your mood. A large proportion of your available Serotonin, however, is produced in your gut. Your microbiome, which is made up of probiotics and prebiotics, must contain the maximum amount of “good bacteria” to function properly – ensuring a positive interaction between brain and gut, which will lead to a healthy lifestyle, both physical, psychological and emotional.
