Nutrition is having a moment
WellBeing
|Issue 217
If it feels like every second person on your feed is a health expert, you're not alone.

Wellness is everywhere and while some of the advice we receive is questionable (raw carrot salad as a DIY retinol?), the upside is people are waking up to the power of food. Whether it's gut health, hormones, inflammation, sleep or stress, more of us are tuning into how nutrition underpins everything - and taking a more whole-body approach to feeling good.
That shift isn’t just showing up on socials. It’s gaining traction across the healthcare system, too. And for those of us who feel the pull towards helping others live well, right now presents a real opportunity: clinical nutritionists are now formally recognised as part of the Allied Health Professions. It's a big deal and a big step forward for anyone thinking about turning their passion for healthy living into something more.
It means more opportunities to collaborate with GPs and other professionals, and a stronger voice within Australia's health landscape. It also brings added credibility to the profession, helping clients and colleagues understand that qualified nutritionists aren't just wellness-adjacent they're part of the broader healthcare conversation.
