Lou Patchitt
I am the owner and principal Registered Nutritionist (RNutr), Clinical Psychotherapist and Hypnotherapist at Lighter4Life.
My interest in food and nutrition was sparked while I was a teen when I realised the food we ate didn't mean it was nutritious and that it had a profound link between overall health, mood and wellness.
My focus since shifted towards my career in Nutrition & Clinical Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy and focusing in gut health where I have now found my niche helping clients to achieve their personal goals with food and digestive concerns.
I consult on all general nutrition issues such as weight loss, pre-diabetes, cholesterol, inflammation and food intolerance. I also hold a strong interest in gut health.
Having starting out my food and nutrition life as a chef, I have combined my knowledge and understanding of busy modern lives with a practical approach. Today, our lifestyles often mean we have very little time left to spend hours in the kitchen preparing food so, Lighter4Life's provides clients with recipes for quick healthy tasty meals that can easily fit in to the most chaotic lives.
