Deborah Van Lith

Overview

Hello my name is Debbie and I am a Clinical Nutritionist (BHSc Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine) based in Perth Western Australia.
I am passionate about preventing and supporting chronic disease conditions using food as medicine.
My special interest is Gut Health. Although it might seem that Gut Health would mainly impact digestion, scientists are discovering that the gut microbiome can actually affect your overall health.
As well as digestive disorders, Gut Health can impact ability to lose weight, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, allergies, autoimmune conditions, allergies, hormone regulation, mental health disorders, cancer and the aging process.
More than 2,000 years ago Hippocrates famously stated that ‘All Disease Begins in the Gut’. Thousands of years later, research continues to confirm that Hippocrates was definitely onto something. While all disease doesn’t literally start in the gut, many diseases do in fact start with gastrointestinal disturbances or imbalances. These findings highlight the fact that you cannot achieve optimal health without a healthy gut.
As an evidence-based clinical practitioner, I use the latest scientific research to provide holistic client care and focusing on the cause of your presenting condition. I work one-on-one with clients to develop individualised treatment plans and diet strategies that improve quality of life and wellbeing.
Having a background in the food industry, I am passionate about tasty food options that are good for your health and enjoyable to eat.
In addition, I love cooking and developing healthy recipes for WELL AZ Kitchen.

WELL AZ Clinical Nutrition is your one place for everything from A-Z of Clinical Nutrition to help you get back to feeling as WELL AZ.
