Georgia Betts is a Melbourne based clinical nutritionist specialising in nutritional medicine and tailored therapeutic meal plans. Georgia embraces a balanced, whole-food approach, and has many years of experience in recipe development (this means, her food is delicious!). Georgia’s philosophy is simple: eating should be enjoyable, nourishing and non-restrictive. Georgia is highly skilled at identifying the root cause of health conditions, by taking a comprehensive case history, analysing pathology tests and interrupting functional and integrative tests. Georgia then uses food-as-medicine and nutraceutical supplementation in a personalised treatment plan to support the body back to health. Amongst all the “fads” and “diets” out there, Georgia delivers sustainable, evidence-based nutrition solutions. She is extremely passionate about the power of clinical food therapy that is grounded in quality science. Georgia has a natural ability to connect with her clients and understand their individual health goals. She also acknowledges the strong correlation between mental health and physical health. Georgia considers all of these aspects of health holistically when creating personalised treatment plans.
