I'm Marcelle, an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD), Accredited Nutritionist and the Founder of Better You Nutrition.

​

I have a special interest in low-carbohydrate and ketogenic nutrition, metabolic health, weight management and nutrition support for people using GLP-1 medications.

​

I work with people living with type 2 diabetes, pre-diabetes, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), fatty liver disease (MASLD) and obesity, helping them achieve better health through practical, evidence-based nutrition.

​

I understand there is no single eating pattern that suits everyone. While many of my clients choose a low-carbohydrate or ketogenic approach, others prefer a balanced style of eating. My role is to help you find an approach that is evidence-based, realistic and sustainable for your individual health goals, medical conditions and lifestyle.

​

Why I Became a Dietitian

My passion for nutrition is deeply personal.

I chose to become a dietitian after losing my father to complications associated with morbid obesity. Experiencing first-hand the impact that nutrition-related disease can have on an individual and their family shaped the direction of my career and continues to motivate the work I do today.

That experience reinforced my belief that nutrition is about much more than weight. It's about improving health, reducing the risk of chronic disease, enhancing quality of life and helping people feel their best.

​

My Philosophy 

I believe nutrition advice should be practical, achievable and backed by evidence—not fads or misinformation.

​

Nutrition shouldn’t be confusing or overwhelming. My goal is to simplify the science, provide clear guidance and help you develop sustainable eating habits that fit into your everyday life.

​

Whether your goal is improving blood glucose levels, managing a chronic health condition, losing weight or optimising your nutrition while taking GLP-1 medication, I focus on realistic strategies that support long-term success.

​

My Approach

​Evidence-Based Practice

Every recommendation I make is based on current scientific evidence, clinical guidelines and professional experience.

​

Personalised Nutrition

No two people are the same. Your nutrition plan will be tailored to your health conditions, goals, food preferences, lifestyle and cultural background.

 

Practical Solutions

I believe nutrition advice should work in the real world. Together we’ll develop realistic strategies that you can maintain long after your appointment.

​

Collaborative Healthcare

When appropriate, I work alongside your GP, specialists and other healthcare professionals to ensure your nutrition care forms part of your overall health management.

​

Lifelong Learning

Nutrition science is continually evolving. I regularly participate in professional development to ensure my clients receive advice that reflects current evidence and best practice.
