Biography
Joe is a university-qualified dietitian from Australia, but now based in Europe with his wife.
From 2011 he worked as a both a clinical and private consulting dietitian for several years, focusing on food intolerance, autoimmune diseases and metabolic health issues. He experiences digestive issues from anxiety and stress, which are – ironically – usually caused by work!
In 2013, Joe began learning the skill of science communication – specifically nutrition science – as a member of the Australasian Medical Writers Association.
In 2019, Joe founded the Diet vs Disease online consulting service, focusing on treating clients with digestive diseases and disorders. Over the past six years the team has now grown to 40 and they have served 1000s of clients!
“People often joke that I’m the ‘food police’, when in fact it’s the opposite. I’m a dietitian because I LOVE food, not because I hate it.”
