Leticia Nadalete

I’m a dietitian from Brazil with expertise in vegetarian and vegan nutrition. I have a bachelor’s degree in Nutrition from a highly recognized university in Brazil called Universidade Federal de Lavras, where I performed several extracurricular activities to learn everything that I could about nutrition area. I was an active member of GENEX – Study group in exercise and sports, a deep immersion in teaching and educational materials, lectures, articles, presentations and courses. As a curious person, I was a member of NENUCLI, a study group in clinical nutrition during my university and as a passionate person about improving my nutrition knowledge, in my last year of graduation, I enrolled in the ISAK short course where I gained the certificate of level 1 anthropometrist being able to provide accurate anthropometric assessments. Before finishing the nutrition university, I started a 2 years post-graduation course in vegetarian nutrition from the Vegetarian Brazilian Society.

After graduation, I worked as a private nutritionist in a Brazilian gym where I was responsible for nutritional recommendations and orientations. In 2021, I moved to London and during the first year, I dedicated myself to getting the HCPC recognition as a dietitian while working as a nutritional therapist. During my time as a nutritional therapist and dietitian in the UK, I had the opportunity to work in an NHS clinic of mental health specializing in eating disorders and also in the NHS primary care as a dietitian where I worked with dementia, diabetes, obesity, cancer, dysphagia, high cholesterol, hypertension, malnutrition, IBS and others comorbidities.

I have experience in nutrition for more than 5 years and in the last years, I have been working providing nutrition consultations face to face and online to help people adopt a plant-based diet in a simple, healthy and affordable way to reach the best version of themselves.
