About

Hi. I’m Rachael Allan, owner and operator of Nutritious Mum.

If you are experiencing learning or behaviour challenges with your children, and you are open to looking at the link with diet, I’m your person! I also love to support mums’ health so they can be 100% there for their kids; with good energy, high immunity, a positive mindset and strong body.

I’m a devoted mama-bear of two. My son is twice exceptional (2e): highly gifted with ADHD and dysgraphia, and my daughter has dyslexia. They are the reason I now do what I do.

After thorough research during my own family’s journey I then formalised my knowledge through Well College Global (formerly Cadence Health) with a focus on early nutrition (birth to adolescence).

I’m now a nutrition educator, specialising in children’s diet for learning and behaviour. I talk to parent groups locally in Invercargill and run Fueling our Fireflies: an online course for parents. This course currently runs as a private Facebook group three times a year. Although it is available internationally, it references foods available in New Zealand only.

I am proud to also be an Independent Distributor for USANA (True Health), who produce a range of premium nutritional products, including specific supplements for children and teenagers.

If you are feeling overwhelmed by your children’s challenges please do get in touch, by whichever method works best for you: a call, text, email, or Facebook message.

I found Rachael very helpful when going through a tough time trying to sort out nutrition and general motivation. She was patient, knew her products really well and gave some real and interesting suggestions regarding meals and foods and organising the pantry. All of which have worked well. She has also put me in touch with other experts which also worked well. The sessions we had were affordable and I appreciated the time.

I found this programme very useful. Rachael is a down-to-earth mumma, who is experiencing challenges similar to my own family. The information given in the program is easy to understand. There is no ‘waffling’ it is pure information to help you incorporate better nutrition into your own families lifestyle. Thank you!

When planning my daughter’s Japanese food themed birthday party last year, I became aware of the additives in wasabi paste but just could not find an alternative locally! All the brands I could find here in Invercargill had artificial colours (102 and 133 – both on my list to avoid) and no actual wasabi either, … Continue reading Yes To Sushi But Leave The Accompaniments Please

Health At Every Size

I used to believe that being a healthy weight was THE most important thing you could do for your long-term health. Something everyone should strive for. No excuses. When the body positivity movement – with it’s acceptance of all bodies, no matter the form, size or appearance – peaked last year, it made me nervous. I had … Continue reading Health At Every Size
