• Personalised, realistic nutrition advice that suits your lifestyle

• Evidence-based research

• Holistic - how you sleep, move and think all impact your wellbeing

• Behaviour change focus, rather than template meal plans

• Empowering you to make changes that can last

At Mission Nutrition, our experienced nutritionists and dietitians take the time to truly listen and understand you - your unique goals, lifestyle, and challenges. It’s not a one-size-fits-all approach because everyone is different. And it’s not just about food; we focus on practical, personalised advice that fits with your life.  

Here’s what you get from a consultation:

• Nutrition and lifestyle guidance tailored to you and your circumstances

• Clear, practical advice you can start using straight away

• Clarity around how food affects your symptoms, energy and mood

• Confidence in what to eat and why to support your body - physically and emotionally

• Practical tools to help manage emotional eating, weight changes, or unhelpful habits

• Simple lifestyle strategies to support better sleep, stress and overall wellbeing

• Supplement recommendations if needed, backed by evidence

• A chance to feel heard, supported, and empowered to take control of your health

• The reassurance of having a qualified, caring expert in your corner

• Bonus resources including easy, healthy meal ideas that suit your preferences and routine

We’re here to help you feel better - inside and out - with guidance that works in real life.

At Mission Nutrition, we’re about more than just food advice. We look at the whole wellbeing picture - supporting you with nutrition and your sleep, stress, movement, habits, and lifestyle. Because it’s all connected, and it all matters.

We understand that life is busy and often complicated, so we make things easier - helping you cut through the confusion and take practical, realistic steps forward. We turn the theory into something that actually works in your life.

Our team of experienced and highly qualified dietitians and nutritionists aren’t here to judge - we’re here to partner with you, support you, and champion your progress. With real-life experience and practical tools, we show you how to make changes that stick.

We’re real people, with real lives, here to help you feel your best - in a way that truly works for you.

Your Initial Consultation is to help us understand you and your goals. To start with we’ll complete a full lifestyle, health, and diet assessment.

Together, we then start to develop a personalised action plan to get you started on your path to better health. This will give you the confidence to know what you need to focus on to get the results you are looking for.

We will answer as many of your questions as possible at this time, however, sometimes there is a lot to cover so follow up sessions may be necessary. You can arrange these directly with the nutritionist or dietitian you are working with.

A Follow Up will help to keep you motivated and on track with what you are wanting to achieve. Much like a follow up appointment with a GP, physiotherapist, dentist or other healthcare provider - the number and frequency of these sessions will be based on your needs.

Your follow up meetings are completely tailored to you. We'll review your progress, discuss tools and strategies to help you reach your goals, and work through any challenges you're facing along the way.

The dietitian or nutritionist you work with will help you work out what is right for you!

At Mission Nutrition, our focus is to empower you with the knowledge you need to make the right choices for you - this is how you create long-term change and healthy habits that stick. You'll learn how to eat to your appetite and create a healthier relationship with food, without weighing your food or restrictive diets!

After your session, you will receive a tailored report that outlines the key points discussed in your consult, some meal ideas, and steps to take to reach your goals and get the results you are looking for!

While a very prescriptive diet plan can sound like a good idea, research shows that it's not the best way to change the way you eat so this is not something we offer.

Yes, absolutely. This is always looked at on an individual basis. 

At Mission Nutrition, we take a food first approach - which means we’ll work with you to get the nutrients and vitamins you need through food and lifestyle choices wherever possible. That said, there are times when supplements can be beneficial. We'll consider your age, stage of life, symptoms, and medical history to identify any potential gaps. For example, supplementation may be recommended for things like fertility, coeliac disease, or specific deficiencies. 

Our goal is to make sure your body gets what it needs in the most effective and sustainable way for you.  

Not always - and it’s important to know that testing doesn’t always provide clear or definitive answers. In many cases, understanding your symptoms, health history, and lifestyle gives us just as much, if not more, insight into what’s going on and how best to support you. 

If we feel specific testing (such as blood tests or breath testing) would be helpful based on your symptoms, we’ll let you know what we recommend and how to go about it. 

If testing is advised, it’s ideal to arrange this before your follow-up appointment so your practitioner can help you interpret the results and use them to guide your plan.

If you already have recent test results, we ask that you send them through ahead of your initial consultation so we can factor them into your personalised recommendations.

The weight loss medication world is upon us and we believe that there’s no better person to have in your corner than a specialised dietitian or nutritionist. Whether you are considering or already on a GLP-1 antagonist we are here to help. 

There is no quick fix when it comes to weight loss, with or without medication, at Mission Nutrition we believe in behaviour change at the core for creating sustainable lifestyle habits that support your long-term health and wellbeing. 

Firstly, there are there are a number of considerations you will need to make to determine if this medication is right for you – we can help to guide you through this in your initial consultation. 

It is helpful to have blood tests prior to your initial consult, including:

• Cholesterol / Lipids 

• HbA1c 

• TSH (and further thyroid markers if TSH sub optimal T3, T4) 

• Iron studies 

• B12 

• Folate 

• Vitamin D 

• Zinc 

We will support you with: 

• Protein requirements and lean muscle mass 

• Exercise goals 

• Meeting nutrient requirements and maintaining nutrition status 

• Hydration 

• Gut health and side effects you may experience 

• Sustainable behaviour change 

• Accountability, support and empowerment 

• Maintaining results once GLP-1 treatment is discontinued 

We do not prescribe or alter medication. All medication decisions remain with the GP or specialist (more information here).

Our role is to ensure patients remain nutritionally supported and informed. Follow up appointments are intended to help you get the best out of the medication while taking it, and to help you create healthy eating and lifestyle behaviours while on, and beyond, GLP 1 therapy that can last in the long term. 

All of our team offer telehealth consultations which take place via video meeting or phone call. We use a secure video conferencing platform that is operated through Cliniko (our practice management system). Please be assured that our team do telehealth consults frequently and they work very well. 

Yes, face-to-face consultations are available with our Dietitians in Auckland, Tauranga, Rotorua and Christchurch.

Yes, absolutely. It’s important to note that the focus of the consult will be on you, rather than the support person. We also offer couples consults if both of you would like to be included in the consult.
