Hi. My name is Mechelle Palermo. I am a qualified Clinical Nutritionist (with Distinction). I am also a qualified Medical Laboratory Scientist with over 30 years experience (including Genetics, Cytogenetics, Haematology, Microbiology, Biochemistry & other areas). I am a Certified Metabolic Balance Practitioner. I offer a program to assist clients with improving their metabolic health (weight management, cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, glucose regulation). After a 90 minute initial consultation + blood screen, a personalised Metabolic Balance meal plan is generated for you and the coaching program guides you to achieve your health goals. The program is structured to assist you with the best foods to eat for your body, to lower inflammation and feel your best. The program works well for clients taking weight loss medications too. Clients taking weight loss medications may have reduced appetite. It is therefore important these clients still have a balanced nutritious diet. I am also an Accredited Gut Ecology & Metabolic Modulation (G.E.M.M) protocol practitioner founded and developed by Dr. C. Houghton at Cell-Logic, Australia. The protocol provides a gentle nutrigenomic approach to improving health goals. It includes a healthy "Food First Philosophy" approach plus natural food supplements to target gut health conditions, metabolic health and other health conditions including auto-immune and neurological conditions. Visit https://cell-logic.com.au/the-g-e-m-m-protocol-for-patients/ for more information. Where more support is required, I also offer optional Functional Laboratory tests including a hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) test, Genetics testing, Gut Microbiome, and other types to gather more client health marker data to assist my clients. My primary areas I support are clients for Metabolic health and Gut health. I also support clients in pre-conception, fertility, family, auto-immune and neurological health. I also support clients who would just like a nutrition health check-up. My services are complementary to medical care and my clients should always stay in contact with their medical team. Treatment plans are based on a client's extensive health history which I take in the Initial (First) appointment (including medical history, family history, diet, lifestyle, medications, supplements, conventional & functional pathology test results). Please bring your most recent laboratory test results and a list of current medications & supplements to your First appointment. For each client I ensure the Nutrition & Lifestyle treatment plan is holistic, matches each client's health goals and is based on the best scientific evidence at that time. For Metabolic Balance Program clients, they will follow a structured program including their personalised blue-print meal plan. For clients interested in the Metabolic Balance program, please ask me which blood tests you need before your meal plan can be generated. My approach is a Food-First Philosophy approach. However, some clients may benefit from supplements too. I have current registration with the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS) (2026-2027). If you have private health insurance you may be able to claim for a rebate depending on your fund provider and level of cover. Health funds you can make a claim with include HBF, Latrobe health services, Mildura health fund, Phoenix health fund, see-u by HBF, St Lukes Health, Medibank, NIB, Australian Unity & AHM. Check with your private health fund for eligibility including codes/item numbers for initial and follow-up consults. Unfortunately, Medicare does not cover Clinical Nutrition services. Therefore, for New Clients: 1. Book an INITIAL (First) consult (60 min or 90 mins) or Metabolic Balance Program or COACH BUNDLE depending on individual circumstances. 2. Clients can book a 15 minute Discovery call with me to discuss which service is best for them before booking. 3. First consult session: I will take a detailed health history and discuss relevant pathology test results with you, your health goals, provide education & strategies for your personal holistic nutrition and lifestyle treatment plan, answer any questions you have, and provide you a completed treatment plan within 1-2 business days. Follow-up sessions will be single, a bundle or program depending on the client's health goals. 4. I can also be contacted on my website at www.mechellepalermo.com through my contact page or instagram account @palermomechelle Thank you. I look forward to meeting and assisting you with your Health Goals using Nutrition, Lifestyle & other strategies. Mechelle Palermo :)

Hi, I'm Victoria and I am here to help you achieve health in all seasons, no matter where you are starting from. I am passionate about seeing people heal from chronic disease and improve their mental and physical health. I am an AARPN registered Certified Practicing Nutritionist (CPN) with a bachelors degree in Clinical Nutrition. I believe in nutrition and lifestyle first, because if the foundation is poor you can throw every supplement under the sun at your body and it will only produce short term results at best. I am able to offer functional pathology testing and as an AARPN recognised CPN I have TGA schedule 1 exemption, meaning under Australian Law I have independent prescribing capacity and can prescribe personalised compounded nutraceuticals and practitioner only products to patients. My life experience and academic interests have drawn me to many areas of focus, particularly mitochondrial and metabolic dysfunction and the impacts it has on brain health; particularly mental health (including mood disorders - Bipolar Disorders, Major Depressive Disorder, GAD, and Panic Disorders) neurodevelopmental disorders (ADHD & ASD), neuro-inflammation and cognitive decline. I have undertaken continued education in: - Clinical Care for Autistic Adults (Harvard Medical School) - Common Causes and Treatments of Depression in Children and Adolescents (Stanford School of Medicine) - Women’s Health: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (Stanford School of Medicine) Please note: EPC/ Chronic care plans are for patients without Private Health Insurance.
