About

Hi there, it’s Noura.

A registered dietitian, an educator, a mom, and a food-themed-stuff lover.

I’ve been a registered dietitian for over 12 years — in academia, in community organisations, and now in clinical nutrition counselling. In that time I’ve helped thousands of people understand their bodies, their food, and their health conditions, and take steps that actually fit their lives.

Why I work the way I do

Look up nutrition advice online and you mostly end up confused — with facts that are inaccurate, blown up, or built on fear rather than research.

And most of it doesn’t fit your life, your values, or your culture. That’s where individualised nutrition care comes in. You get information grounded in real science, shaped around how you actually eat — and you get to feel heard and seen while we do it.

“Food is not just fuel. Food is identity and love. Food is family and fun. I consider all of that with you.”

What I work on today

My clinical practice is endocrinology nutrition, alongside primary and preventative care — plus education sessions that are practical rather than theoretical.

Endocrine conditions

Diabetes, hypothyroidism and PCOS — the endocrine conditions I work with in clinical nutrition counselling.

Primary & preventative care

Working on the numbers before they become a diagnosis, and on habits that hold up once the appointment is over.

Teaching & programs

Sessions and programs for groups, schools and organisations — hands-on, and genuinely fun where they can be.

Food fascinates me from seed to gut

The whole process. I came to dietetics from a love of science that started in childhood, and that curiosity is still the reason I do this.

I’m also a mother of three. I learn a lot from them as they grow — and they’re picky eaters, so I get creative, and very patient.
