Lower Carb Nutrition
Hi, I’m Kate, an Accredited Practicing Dietitian from Wollongong, NSW.
I came to learn about lower carb way of living in 2018 after I experienced some health issues of my own.
Low carb helped be regain my health and vitality and, since then, I’ve been eager to share this way of living with others and to help guide them through the ups and downs of starting a low carb journey.
I currently work with the Sydney Low Carb Specialists at the Castle Hill clinic (Wednesday) and consult via telehealth to reach the rest of Australia (Friday). When I’m not consulting, I’m completing a PhD at the University of Wollongong.
