Hello, and welcome! My name is Chantelle van der Merwe, and I'm a dedicated and passionate registered dietitian. As a professional, I believe in connecting with my patients on a deeper personal level to truly understand their unique needs and concerns. With my expertise, I strive to make complicated nutrition science more simple and practical, so my clients can achieve their goals with ease and confidence.
My practice focuses on helping patients manage a range of health concerns, including diabetes, metabolic syndrome (including insulin resistance, high cholesterol & high blood pressure), IBS and healthy weight loss and weight management. Through personalized and tailored nutrition plans, I work with my patients to create sustainable changes that will have a lasting impact on their health. In my pursuit of excellence, I've completed a postgraduate diploma in diabetes management from the University of South Wales. This has allowed me to further develop my field of interest in diabetes management, which is a key area of focus in my practice. I'm also passionate about nutrigenomics, which is the study of gene and nutrient interactions. This exciting field is proving to be an incredible tool for the prevention and treatment of disease, and I'm eager to continue learning and exploring its possibilities. In my free time, I'm a secret "study-holic" who loves to stay up to date with the latest research in my field. But when I'm not buried in textbooks, I enjoy traveling to sunny destinations and ticking them off my bucket list. I look forward to working with you to achieve optimal health and wellness. |
