Rebecca Gawthorne - Dietitian & Nutritionist Get my NEW recipe ebooks & find me on Instagram Hi! Food physically becomes you! I don’t believe in restriction. I do believe in healthy eating.

My name is Rebecca Gawthorne (aka “Nourish Naturally”) & I’m an Accredited Practising Dietitian, Accredited Nutritionist & a member of the Dietitians Association of Australia. I love food & despite four years of studying food & nutrition at University, publishing research on health, & helping thousands of clients with their eating, it never ceases to amaze me how important healthy, nourishing food is to our bodies. It makes up every cell in your body – your muscles, hair, skin, heart. We need to nourish our bodies with healthy, real, wholesome foods to ensure our bodies function healthily, to feel energetic and live the life we were created to. QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE
I hold a Bachelor of Nutrition & Dietetics (Honours I) from the University of Wollongong. I received First Class Honours for my research conducted at the Sydney Children’s Hospital, which has been published internationally. I have a range of experience at various hospitals, health clinics and community nutrition centres across Sydney, as well as working throughout rural NSW with The Royal Flying Doctor Service as “The Flying Dietitian”. I have presented health seminars, cooking classes and I write nutrition articles for magazines, newspapers, websites & newsletters. I am also a qualified MEND Go4Fun Healthy Kids program leader and have undertaken countless additional courses on mindful eating, weight loss, chronic disease management & healthy eating.WHAT I BELIEVE IN
I don’t believe in fad diets. I don’t believe quick fixes with expensive diet pills. I do believe nourishing naturally. I do believe in fresh, real, wholesome foods that make you feel, look and live fantastic. And I also believe in treating yourself & enjoying food.

A race I’ll never forget 🏔️🇨🇭1st place for 2026 🥹🏆

I still can’t believe I had the opportunity to run the Gemsen Trophy - 947m of climbing from Wengen up to Männlichen in the Swiss Alps, finishing at an elevation of 2,343m.

The views were unreal, the climb was brutal, and somehow I finished with the fastest time so far across both the men’s and women’s results for 2026.

Definitely one of the most incredible running experiences I’ve ever had.
