Hello, my name is Debbie, and I am a Clinical Nutritionist (BHSc Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine, CPN AAPRN) based in Mandurah, Western Australia. I am a proud Founder, Business Partner and Practitioner at XLR8 Your Health Functional Medicine and Clinical Nutrition. With a deep understanding of women's health issues, my practice is dedicated to supporting women through life's various stages. I focus on menopause, hormone balance, and endometriosis with genuine compassion and care. I am passionate about empowering women to take charge of their health through personalised, evidence-based nutritional strategies. Using the latest scientific research, I strive to provide comprehensive and compassionate care, addressing these specific health concerns while nurturing a positive mindset through NLP techniques, supporting mental and emotional well-being. Gut health is a cornerstone of my approach, given its essential role in overall wellness. I've seen first-hand how the gut microbiome influences digestion, weight management, diabetes, cardiovascular health, allergies, hormone regulation, mental health, and aging. I am focused on supporting any chronic disease condition to improve quality of life and long term health outcomes. Additionally, I address pelvic health concerns such as pelvic pain and incontinence, understanding their profound impact on women's lives and striving to improve their quality of life. Functional testing offers invaluable insights into my clients' unique health profiles, taking the guesswork out of identifying the root causes of health issues. This enables me to deliver highly personalised nutrition treatment plans and protocols that are easy to understand and integrate into daily life. My goal is to make the journey to better health approachable and achievable for every patient I work with. I am committed to working closely with my clients, developing deeply individualised treatment plans that address their specific health concerns and enhance their quality of life and overall well-being. With an extensive background in the food industry, I am passionate about creating delicious and nutritious food options that make healthy eating a joyful and sustainable part of life. Please make a booking for a free 15-minute chat to talk about your nutritional needs. I am available for consultations at my Halls Head clinic, online, or via home visits. Let's work together to unlock your full health potential with XLR8 Your Health.

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 :)
