ohhsogreen Hi! My name is Rachael and I am a Registered Dietitian practicing virtually across Nova Scotia, British Columbia, and Ontario. Hi, welcome to Ohhsogreen!

Specializing in plant-based nutrition + digestive health. Visit www.ohhsogreen.com to learn more about services! My name is Rachael and I am a Registered Dietitian practicing virtually across British Columbia. I strive to help clients set and reach nutrition goals that fit within their current lifestyle using evidence-based nutrition research and education. I utilize an empathetic and weight neutral approach that helps clients feel understood and in control of their own wellness journey. A little bit about me, my nutrition experience, and practice...

I have a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia. I completed my Dietetic Internship through the Nova Scotia Health Authority, working in various hospitals in Halifax and Dartmouth. My work experience extends into general medicine, general surgery, intensive care, cardiovascular surgery, diabetes, and gastrointestinal health. I have supported clients by providing evidence-based nutrition education for various conditions, including celiac disease and gluten-free living, irritable bowel syndrome and low FODMAPs, irritable bowel disease, kidney stones, dyslipidemia, hypertension and oncology. My personal health philosophy is that nutrition is only one component of a healthy lifestyle. Through a client-centered approach, I utilize an interdisciplinary wellness model which supports and guides individualized client care. My main areas of practice are digestive health and plant-based nutrition including vegan, vegetarian eating, plant-based sports nutrition, as well as transitioning to plant-based eating. I have over 20 years of lived experience with plant-based eating, which allows me to effectively help clients navigate plant-based eating in a simple way that provides them with the tools they need to manage their own nutrition and goals. I also work with individuals who are not plant-based, as well as provide education and support for diabetes, heart health, celiac/gluten-free, anti-inflammatory eating, kidney stones, as well as weight management through lifestyle. Thanks for stopping by! I look forward to connecting with you!

Cruciferous veggies like broccoli are loaded with nutrients, however, they can cause digestive upset in some people due to the high content of insoluble fibre ๐Ÿฅฆ

Cooking and combining with other foods for a more balanced meal can sometimes help with digestion and reducing GI associated symptoms.

Sprouted Banana Turmeric H**p Pancakes ๐Ÿฅž

3/4 cup of Sprouted Khorasan Wheat Flour
1/4 tsp Himalayan Sea Salt
1/4-1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder
1 small frozen Banana
1 1/2 cup Coconut Milk

Directions:

1. Mix Flour, Salt, and Turmeric.
(Turmeric can be quite strong so start with a 1/4 tsp, if not used to it.)

2. Defrost frozen Banana until melted and able to mix into thicker liquid. Then add to flour mix, along with the coconut milk.
(Start with 1 cup of coconut milk, and add more as necessary to get appropriate thickness of batter. The thicker the batter, the thicker and fluffier the pancake; the thinner, the more crepe like.)

3. Cook in lightly oiled (extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil) pan on stove top on medium heat until light brown and then flip.

4. Top with a light sprinkle of turmeric powder, h**p hearts, and some maple syrup or date syrup. (Date syrup can be made by blending a handful of dates with water.)
