About Me

My experience in the gastrointestinal nutrition field allows me to support clients with the spoken and unspoken challenges with functional gut disorders (including irritable bowel syndrome / IBS), food intolerances, allergies, ongoing gastrointestinal concerns and more.

Since entering the dietetics field, I have been fascinated by the intricacies of the gut microbiome - the bugs in our gut are what sparked my interest in gastrointestinal health.

On top of promoting a healthy gut, I am also passionate about helping clients nurture a positive relationship with food and their bodies. I like to remind people that guilt has no place on the table - food and satisfaction do.

Fluent in Mandarin and proficient in Cantonese.

作为一位注册营养师,我专注于帮助华人社区解决肠胃健康方面的各种问题,例如肠易激综合症(IBS)、食物不耐受、过敏及其他长期胃肠不适等。这些问题常常难以启齿,也容易被忽视,但通过科学的饮食管理和个性化的建议,是可以明显改善的。我对肠道微生态系统(即肠道菌群)有深入研究。正是这些“肠道里的小虫子”激发了我对肠胃健康的浓厚兴趣。肠道健康不仅关系到消化功能,更与免疫力、情绪和整体健康密切相关。

除了专注于肠道健康,我也非常关注如何帮助客户建立良好的饮食关系,生活化减脂和改善身型焦虑。在我看来,吃饭不应充满负罪感,而应是一种享受,是滋养身体和心灵的方式。

我也支持身心健康方面有特殊需要的群体,包括有进食障碍(如神经性厌食症、ARFID选择性进食障碍)的人群,改善因自闭症(ASD)、注意力缺陷多动症(ADHD)等导致的儿童偏食或成长迟缓的情况。此外,我在帮助管理长者健康(少肌症、 营养不良)以及其他慢性疾病管理,例如心血管疾病、二型糖尿病、胃食道逆流等方面也富有经验。

如果您或您的家人在饮食、消化或健康方面有疑问,欢迎用普通话与我沟通。我会从“吃得对”开始  ,协助您一步步改善健康,迈向更好的生活。
