ABOUT ASTRID \u00b7 SWISS-TRAINED NUTRITIONIST<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]
I trained as a nutritionist in Switzerland \u2014 a country where nutrition is taught as a serious clinical discipline, where the science comes first, and where unhelpful trends are treated with quiet skepticism. That training shaped how I work.<\/p>\n
I hold a Swiss Dipl\u00f4me en Nutrition and a Certificat en Anatomie, Physiologie et Pathologie, both from \u00c9cole TCMA in Geneva. My practice is recognised under Geneva’s cantonal framework for complementary therapy practitioners (loi K 1 03).<\/p>\n
Today, I practise in Dubai, where I see women across the UAE in person and online. A growing part of my work is also with women in Switzerland, France, and the wider Mediterranean region \u2014 women who often share the same questions but are looking for nutrition advice that takes their stage of life seriously.<\/p>\n
My focus is women 45+. Not because the other work \u2014 general health, weight, family nutrition \u2014 isn’t real, but because the questions women face from perimenopause onward are different, more layered, and far too often dismissed. That’s the conversation I want to have.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
Three things make my practice different from the standard nutritionist appointment, and they show up in every consultation.<\/p>\n
Evidence first.<\/strong> Every recommendation I give traces back to peer-reviewed science, the most current meta-analyses, and clinical guidelines \u2014 not the latest trend on social media. If the evidence is mixed, I’ll tell you. If it’s strong, I’ll tell you why.<\/p>\n Honest about limits.<\/strong> I’m a nutritionist, not a doctor. Where the conversation needs to involve medication, hormone testing, or a specialist, I’ll say so clearly and help you bring the right questions to the right professional. The boundary keeps the work clean.<\/p>\n Specific to your stage of life.<\/strong> A 25-year-old’s nutrition is not a 50-year-old’s nutrition. The body shifts. The needs shift. The advice has to shift with them. Most generic nutrition guidance was never built with midlife women in mind. Mine is.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”] I’m African origin, Swiss-trained, and have called Dubai home for many years. I’m a mother, a wife, and \u2014 depending on the week \u2014 a fairly competitive padel player. I move between three cultures and three languages, and that mix shapes how I think about nutrition: there is no single right way to eat. There is the way that works for your body, your stage of life, and the cooking traditions you grew up in.<\/p>\n I write a weekly Friday newsletter on Substack for women 45+ \u2014 practical, evidence-based, and unhurried. I share research, occasional recipes, and what I’m learning from clients (with their permission and anonymised). If we end up working together, much of what I write about you’ll recognise in the way I practise.<\/p>\n Most of all: I treat the women I work with the way I’d want to be treated. With time. With honesty. With no nonsense. And with the assumption that they’re intelligent adults who can handle real information about their own bodies.<\/p>\n My own journey through perimenopause is what made this work personal.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”] Book a first consultation.<\/strong><\/p>\n If you’re ready to work with someone one-on-one, the first consultation is 60 minutes.
