About
Welcome to Holistic Dietetics. I am Janet Yong, the founder of Holistic Dietetics and your Accredited Practising Dietitian and Credentialled Diabetes Educator. I created Holistic Dietetics because I am a big believer that a person's health encompasses the body, mind and soul.
I am committed to provide the best possible care to my clients using evidence based knowledge whilst empowering them to positively take charge of their health. Being multilingual, I have worked with clients from all walks of life and of varied cultural backgrounds. I believe the best way in helping my clients achieve their health goals is through an individualised, practical and holistic approach using culturally appropriate strategies.
I am here to walk alongside my clients so they are ready to Eat Well, Move More and Love Life!
Approach: Holistic, individualised, practical, evidence-based, and culturally sensitive. Described as empowering clients to take charge of their health and walking alongside them on their journey.
