Hi there, I’m Jade. I’m a mother, Nutritionist, yogi and founder of Nom Nom Nutrition, now living in Mordialloc, Victoria with my husband Jeremy and our gorgeous bubs, Tara and soon-to-be born baby boy. And I’m on a mission to inspire others to make health a priority in their lives. As a practicing Nutritionist, I have seen my patients lives change from adopting an holistic whole foods diet customised to their needs. We only need to look around our own neighbourhood to realise that chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer are reaching catastrophic proportions, and through nutritional science research, we can prove how much our modern-day dietary guidelines are to blame. I am honoured to have you join me here, to not only present you with the research but teach you the healing power of nutritional medicine. Whether you are looking to further your clinical knowledge or wanting to deepen your own health journey, remember this: food that heals comes out of the ground, off a tree, or from an animal — it is just about learning which foods are best for you!

I’m a Naturopath and GAPS Practitioner with over 22 years of experience, specialising in gut health and its impact on the rest of the body — particularly skin health, food intolerances, and immune function. My interest in digestive health grew out of my own experience. I lived with long-term fatigue and health issues that worsened after the birth of my son. I was eventually diagnosed with autoimmune low thyroid function, linked to increased intestinal permeability (commonly referred to as "leaky gut"). I now support my digestion as part of managing my health — a challenge that’s given me firsthand insight into how difficult dietary changes can be in real life. Because of this, I go beyond identifying the underlying cause in my clinical work. I provide practical support — including recipes and strategies for gut health while managing food sensitivities. I aim to make dietary changes feel realistic and sustainable. I hold a Bachelor of Health Science (Complementary Medicine), an Advanced Diploma of Health Science (Naturopathy), a Diploma of Health in Nutrition, a Diploma of Health in Herbal Medicine and I am a certified GAPS practitioner. Alongside clinic work, I’ve worked in the health food industry and have provided education to pharmacy assistants, fellow practitioners, and the general public across Australia.
