Fearless Nutrition - Dietitian

Fantastic experience: I chose Sylvia to help me with my growing "addiction" to acid reflux pills. I was on 2x 40mg omeprazole and one 20mg famotidine per day, also needed Acidex some nights. I knew the long term omeprazole use was not healthy. Anyway took the plunge to see Sylvia (virtually), and she recommended an anti inflammatory diet. Over the course of a few weeks, I got my head around that! With some coaching and check in sessions, I slowly dialled my acid reflux meds back (didn't always get that right....). But I'm down to only the occasional pills these days if I push the boundaries too much. I'm off the strict diet, but kept a lot of the habits Sylvia taught me along the way. I make the yummiest chia pudding for breakfast and I love it! Sylvia was understanding, not too pushy with her knowledge but also kept me honest. Just that right balance which can be hard to achieve. It's been one year since I went through my sessions with Sylvia, and I'm so much healthier because of it!!

Fantastic experience: I met Dr Sylvia last Saturday and let me share with you the data evidence for how effective it has been With the super pragmatic, actionable steps that Dr Sylvia paved out for me, from day 2 I saw results in my sleep immediately (from 6h asleep time to 8h asleep time), and I feel more energized and confident throughout my day. I am excited to continue working on the plan we built together, and I would highly recommend seeing Dr Sylvia to achieve your health goals!

Fantastic experience: So glad I found Sylvia and Fearless Nutrition! Sylvia is an excellent dietitian with a deep understanding of nutrition and physiology. She’s great at coming up with ideas that work specifically for your body and lifestyle, often with complex requirements.

I highly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: I'm really thankful to Sylvia for helping me manage my PCOS symptoms. She took the time to explain everything and made it easier for me to understand what was going on in my body.

Instead, she helped me understand how certain foods affect my body and how to adjust my portions. Since completing her hormone health program, my blood test results have improved significantly, and my hormone levels are back to normal. I now have a regular monthly cycle, and my hormonal breakouts have gotten better. Sylvia is an exceptionally skilled dietitian and I highly recommend her to anyone dealing with hormonal issues like PCOS.

Fantastic experience: My significant other and I were struggling with our nutrition, we wanted to change our lifestyle so we can one day run around with our future children. One day we done a google search and Sylvia popped up I was skeptical at first because I had never opened up to a complete stranger about my struggles with food but Sylvia was absolutely amazing! She listened to what we were struggling with health wise and helped us come up with tools so we could make the right decisions with our nutrition. If something wasn’t working for us she came up with a plan of something different. Because of Sylvia we now have the tools and confidence needed to make healthy choices for our bodies. Within the first two months I had gone down two dress sizes. Months later both of us are feeling healthier and have so much more energy to enjoy our life together. I can’t thank Sylvia enough. I would highly recommend getting Sylvia’s guidance if you are struggling to make the right choices with your nutrition, she will give you tools to help you in your journey to a healthier you.

Fantastic experience: Sylvia at Fearless Nutrition has been instrumental in helping me improving my PCOS symptoms. Her expertise in this area combined with her friendly approach has helped me identify some of the root causes and triggers, and creating a sustainable plan.

I am very grateful to have found a fantastic dietician!

Sylvia is so easy to talk to and such a lovely person.

Sylvia helped me understand what was missing and gave me practical advice with lots of examples. She also tailored my plan to fit in with dietary requirements and my lifestyle. I’ve had great results and cannot recommend Sylvia highly enough!

Fantastic experience: After suffering from burnout at work and realising I'd developed a bunch of unsustainable habits with regards to my food and exercise, I made an appointment with Sylvia. I'm SO GLAD I did. In our first consult, Sylvia had a talk with me about what my life looked like and identified the reasons which might have been driving me towards unhealthy decisions. She outlined a loose meal plan (which is what worked for me) and a series of tests. I found the changes suggested by Sylvia to be really actionable and concrete and she was always ready to back up her suggestions with actual science. Sylvia was empathetic when I needed it and called me on it when I was obviously making excuses. She's very good at knowing when to press and when to back off and be a bit more gentle. My appointment with Sylvia was the first domino which has led me to a place where my quality of life is significantly improved. If you're reading these reviews because you're not sure whether or not you should make an appointment with her, stop reading and just go book in your damn appointment. You won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: I could not be happier with my experience working with Sylvia. I've been on this journey trying to get to the bottom of my poor health for two and a half years now. I'd been to two different GP's. Two different Gastroenterologists. And one Immunologist. All could not diagnose my weight loss, low white blood cell and B vitamin count, low energy and irritability. After the first session and test Sylvia had already found the culprit and her treatment has got me back to normal. You can't believe what a relief it is to solve this, after having specialists tell you it's a change of life circumstances to name a one of the diagnoses. I'd highly recommend Sylvia if you're facing any digestive issue.

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend working with Sylvia. She maintained professionalism whilst being friendly and non-judgmental with what can be sensitive topics to discuss. Always had flexibility regarding appointments and presented as very knowledgeable providing information on a wide range of topics.

Fantastic experience: After years of struggling with my weight, I decided to finally visit a nutritionist seeking help. Sylvia was incredible, giving me all the tips I needed to help with my journey. I'm now much happier where I am, and all it took was someone with the knowledge and willingness to help. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Sylvia in March looking for help with my diet due to my very busy lifestyle. She wrote me a custom meal plan that would suit my lifestyle, and I have never felt better. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Would definitely recommend Sylvia to those wanting an easy, stress free approach to eating. Thanks for helping me to find some quick, tasty meals to help me to reach my goals!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this nutritionist. My own experience has brought about some radical change in what I eat and the way I eat it and it has now become a lifestyle change.

Fantastic experience: I met Sylvia around 6 months ago. I was looking for help to have more energy and to be more focused on my work. I got it! She helped me and supported me during my period of understanding what my body needed the most. Even during those anxiety attacks (which only happened once during the lock-down) she was there (online) and helped me to go through it smoothly. Her exact words were: "First of all DON'T FEEL GUILTY. Cravings and emotional eating is a totally normal response to stress". I haven't had them never again :) I absolutely do recommend her fantastic work!

Fantastic experience: I have three appointments now with Sylvia and in the beginning I was trying a low-carb/keto diet with just the aid of Youtube videos. Having had these appointments with Sylvia, I now have a much better understanding of how diet and food affects both the body and the brain. I have increased my energy levels and feel much more in control of my day-to-day health. I thoroughly recommend Sylvia if you feel you need any help in working out exactly what diet works for your lifestyle of choice.

Fantastic experience: I saw Sylvia for a nutrition check-in and to help with dealing with eczema and adrenal fatigue. She was warm, friendly, relatable and extremely knowledgeable. She provided me with some great ideas to boost my nutrition and overall health and also gave some ideas for supplements I could add. I really liked that she looked at the whole picture and was realistic with her recommendations so that they were manageable long term. I would say 80% of the changes I have made to my diet have now become firmly entrenched as new habits so that is a great success. I would highly recommend Sylvia to anyone who is looking for a holistic nutritionist who knows her stuff!

Fantastic experience: Great service, advice and plans that work

Fantastic experience: Sylvia was the nutritionist that I needed! I struggle with weight, bloating, cravings and acid reflux. Sylvia was always professional, kind and efficient with her work. She created a food plan that fits my hectic lifestyle, involving a lot of restaurant eating. Within one week of the plan I had more energy, less bloating, lost weight and almost no reflux! She has helped me turn my life around. Even after a month I still find it easy to follow the food plan, even when I'm out at restaurants. Thank you Sylvia!

Fantastic experience: Sylvia is SO lovely and kind and makes you feel at ease... and she made my weight loss journey feel quite effortless, even though I'd been struggling for a number of years on my own. I fully recommend Sylvia's wonderful dietary expertise to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Sylvia and I met over Skype towards the end of May. By the end of September I had dumped 14kilos of unwanted weight. Effortlessly.Thanks to Sylvia and her expert scientifically based advice. She sees beyond weight to optimal health and I have always felt safe in her hands.

Fantastic experience: Sylvia North worked with me, my 12yr old daughter and my wife. She is intuitive, knowledgable, and provided us with real advice based on traditional and the latest research, products and our lifestyle! As my daughter Lauren said "She's so kind and supportive!" Thanks Sylvia you changed our lives!
