ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Grace.
The face behind Nutritional Essence.
Three things I am fiercely passionate about: cooking food, learning about food and of course...EATING food.
​
Food is something that connects every single human on the planet. I absolutely love that.
I was very fortunate to grow up with a strong connection to where food comes from, spending most of my childhood on a livestock farm in Cowra, NSW. Without realising it at the time, this is where my curiosity and appreciation for food truly began.
After finishing high school, I experienced a number of health issues - anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, unexplained digestive issues - which Western medicine couldn't give me answers to. This ultimately lead me down the path of complimentary medicine and healthcare. Food and nutrition played a huge part in helping heal my body and assisting in the management of the issues I was experiencing.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Public Health Nutrition from the University of Wollongong and a Bachelor of Health Science (Nutrition and Dietetic Medicine) through Endeavour College of Natural Health.
My hope is that I can empower you to nourish your body through real nutritious food and simple lifestyle practices, so that you can live a life that you truely love.
​
