As much or as little as you want!

The program runs over 12 weeks and includes 7 x 1:1 consults (an initial 90-minute session plus 6 follow-ups).

Food prep can be as simple or as involved as you choose. Many people keep things very simple especially in the beginning.

The first 2–4 weeks take a little more attention while you find your rhythm, but after that it blends naturally into everyday life.

We step you through planning and prep so you’re not spending unnecessary time or energy.

As long as you’re not pregnant or breastfeeding, you’re generally good to start.

Many parents find this is actually a wonderful way to model balanced, nourishing food and self-care to their children.

I also understand how draining the younger years can be. In hindsight, I wish I’d done this when my kids were little. Having more energy, better sleep, improved cycles and less irritability would have made a big difference.

Looking after yourself isn’t selfish. It supports your whole family.

Yes , in most cases.

This always depends on the individual and their specific condition, but metabolic and hormone-related issues respond very well to personalised nutrition.

Supporting blood sugar regulation, reducing inflammation, improving nutrient status and tailoring food choices can positively influence things like energy, skin, digestion and metabolic health.

Metabolic Balance works by addressing your individual biochemistry, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.

Food really is powerful — and when used correctly, it can be a foundational part of improving health alongside appropriate medical care.

Not at all. Meals can be as simple or as creative as you like.

If you don’t love cooking, that’s completely fine. Many people keep meals very basic and still get excellent results.

You’re in the driver’s seat. Interestingly, a lot of people find their enjoyment of food and cooking is reignited simply because the plan is so straightforward.

Nope. Not a diet.

This is a tough one to get your head around I know, as we see any sign of restriction in our 'diet' as a 'diet'. But it's not about that. It's about gaining long term health in a sustainable way. You weigh food in the beginning simply to get the portion and ratios of protein to carbs right. Then we move to eyeballing and eventually you will know which foods are fabulous for you, which are just ok and those that really don't suit you at all and life becomes a lot less restrictive.

Any transformation requires change. If you are having health issues then you need to change one way or the other. You could go on some crazy internet diet where you cut out major food groups, have little to no support, is impossible to sustain long term OR you can do something like this that is personalised, well balanced, based on wholefoods, fully supported by a professional nutritionist, totally sustainable long term because you've relearnt how to eat AND results in a healthier you all round.

Bonus is modelling healthier habits to your kids and showing them the importance of looking after yourself.

Metabolic Balance isn’t a diet. It’s a fully personalised nutrition program based on your blood chemistry, metabolism and health goals.

Your food plan is created using comprehensive pathology, so you’re eating in a way that supports blood sugar, hormones and metabolic health not following generic rules or trends.

There’s no calorie counting, no extreme restriction and no cutting out whole food groups. Instead, you learn how to eat in a sustainable way that delivers real, long-term results, with professional support every step of the way.
