Welcome! I'm Ellie, a UK Registered Dietitian & Nutritionist

Meet Ellie, a UK HCPC Registered Dietitian who pursued her Nutrition and Dietetics degree at Plymouth University, graduating with Honours in 2019. Over the past four years, she has honed her skills in various healthcare settings, both in the NHS and private sectors, serving communities in Essex and Kent in the UK, followed by a re-location to Singapore over a year ago. Her extensive exposure to nutrition, gained through working in both acute hospital and outpatient community settings, equips her to combat a wide range of conditions and diseases. Ellie's dedication led her to pursue additional certifications, including advanced dietary management of IBS and the Low FODMAP diet from Kings College London, a sports nutrition certification from Sports Nutrition Australia and a Mindfulness Certification. To ensure she delivers quality care, Ellie consistently stays updated with the latest nutritional research, incorporating it into her dietetic practice.

The HYROX p**p drama is a good reminder that race-day fuelling is about more than just what you eat the morning of the event. 💩

A few extra things worth knowing:

1. Keep pre-race meals familiar. High-fat meals, large amounts of fibre and spicy foods can increase GI symptoms in some athletes, particularly close to exercise. Individual tolerance matters.
2. Prioritise hydration in the days before. Especially in Singapore’s heat and humidity. Don’t wait until race morning to catch up. Drink consistently throughout the day and arrive at the start line well hydrated.
3. Practise your fuelling strategy. HYROX takes around 90 minutes for many athletes, but finishing times vary considerably. Prioritise adequate carbohydrate intake in the 24–48 hours before racing, alongside a familiar pre-race meal. If you’re taking over two hours, your carbohydrate strategy during the race may also need consideration.

Your gut is trainable, but race day is not the time to experiment.

Save this for your next HYROX and send it to your doubles partner.

You probably don’t need more nutrition information.

You need help figuring out which information actually matters for you, what to ignore, and how to turn it into something you can realistically do.
There is endless nutrition advice online.

More isn’t always better.

Sometimes the hardest part isn’t knowing what to do. It’s knowing where to start.

I said what I said. 👀

Don’t agree? I wanna hear it in the comments.

But because nutrition is rarely as black and white as Instagram makes it seem, here is the NUANCE 👇

🍞 CARBS
I’m not saying you need to eat loads of carbs.
I’m saying they’re an important fuel source, especially if you’re active. The more you train, the more relevant they become.
And cutting them out to get leaner isn’t a magic solution. Fat loss comes down to energy balance. 
💧 ELECTROLYTES
You do not need electrolytes in every bottle of water.
For most everyday activity, water + your normal diet are absolutely fine.
BUT if you’re sweating heavily, training for a long time, exercising outside in Singapore’s heat, or losing a lot of fluid through illness, they can have a place.
You need to replace what you’re losing, not add more just because it’s marketed as “better hydration”. 
🥫 PROCESSED FOOD
“Processed” does not automatically mean bad.
There is research linking higher intakes of some ultra-processed foods with poorer health outcomes, and we shouldn’t ignore that.
But there’s a big difference between encouraging a balanced diet with fewer ultra-processed foods and making people scared of anything that comes in a packet.
Context matters. 
🍕 THE 80/20 RULE
The 80/20 rule isn’t a literal rule.
You don’t need to eat perfectly, and you don’t need to justify every pizza or dessert by calling it your “20%”.
Your overall diet matters far more than one meal. 
Food is fuel, but it’s also part of living your life.
Eat well. Fuel yourself properly. Enjoy your food. 
And please stop being scared of every ingredient you see on social media.  
Follow for more no-BS nutrition.

Do you actually need a greens powder? 🌱

75+ ingredients might look impressive on paper, but more doesn’t automatically mean better.

To be fair to AG1, they state that their product isn’t a meal replacement and doesn’t replace a healthy, balanced diet. But do consumers fully appreciate or read that disclaimer, when a product is marketed with so many ingredients and potential benefits? 🤔

At the end of the day, supplements are the frosting, not the cake. 🍰

My biggest concern is consumers may get the impression that taking a greens powder means you’re off the hook for eating more of your vegetables. You’re not.

If you want one as an additional supplement and are happy with the cost, that’s a valid choice. But personally, I’d prioritise a balanced diet and targeted supplements where there’s a clear reason to take them.

I’d rather spend my money on my food shop. 🥦

Oh, and if it’s red, that doesn’t automatically make it any better 👀❤️

Would you spend your money on one?

Disclosure: This product was gifted to me by AG1. These are my independent professional views.

I think my definition of “healthy” has changed a lot over the years.

I used to put far more emphasis on how my body looked.

Now, I care much more about being strong, well-fuelled, having strong bones, having energy, enjoying food and feeling comfortable in my body.

And honestly, I don’t always get it right.

I don’t always hit my protein or fibre target. I have days where I eat more, less, differently or simply because I fancy something.

And I’m still a dietitian.

Because health isn’t about getting every decision right. It’s about building a relationship with food and your body that actually allows you to live your life.

So, kinda chic to have muscle.
Kinda chic to eat enough.
Kinda chic to enjoy food.
Kinda chic to love your body at any size.

And maybe most importantly, kinda chic to care more about what your body can do than what it looks like.

I’m not a recipe person. I’m a “chuck things in a pan and hope for the best” person.

But I am a dietitian, so when I’m making dinner I do at least try to make sure there’s enough protein, carbs and veg to make it a proper meal.

So lately I’ve been using ChatGPT for recipe ideas, then doing the important bit myself: making it, tasting it and tweaking it until it’s actually good.

This lemon garlic snapper pasta was one of the results.
Simple, balanced, plenty of protein and veg, and very little faff.
Basically, the kind of dinner I actually want to make on a weeknight.

Save this for the next time you want a lazy dinner that still feels like a proper meal.

Nutrition advice on social media can be WILD.

As a dietitian, my biggest issue is the fear mongering around food: processed foods, sugar, seed oils, carbs... apparently everything is going to kill us.

Nutrition is about context, overall diet, frequency and quantity.
You don’t need to fear food. You need better nutrition information.  My philosophy for food: enjoy more, stress less!

Salads don’t have to be boring.

Instead of asking yourself what you need to cut out, think about what you can add.

Fruit, nuts, seeds, cheese, grains, protein, herbs, a good dressing.

Use what you actually enjoy and what needs using up.

More variety = more interesting food.
