DIETITIAN
KERRY HILLERMANN​
​
Kerry Hillermann has over 10 years experience working as a dietitian, with 6 years being in private practice.
​
Our bodies are fuelled by macro and micronutrients found in food and each biochemical pathway present in our bodies is linked to one another and so our bodies will only operate and feel as good as its limiting nutrient. Our nutritional needs will differ at different stages in our lives e.g. being more active or pregnancy or teenager vs elderly or a particular medical diagnoses such as cancer.
​
WHAT IS DONE?
A thorough nutritional assessment is carried out and an In Body comprehensive body composition assessment is carried out (if required) to help provide more insight as to how your dietary intake at the point of the consultation, is influencing your skeletal muscle mass, hydration level, visceral fat and body fat levels.
​
Personalising nutritional approaches is the key to Kerry’s management. Not everyone will require a personalised flexible, interchangeable meal plan however another approach will be provided to them with guidance around their meals.
