Your Trusted Partners in Gut Health

Welcome to Nutrition for Living, your gut health dietitians with a no-nonsense approach to your health. We’re dedicated to providing quality care for women’s health, gut health and any other nutrition goals in a supportive, personalised and non-judgmental environment.

How Did Nutrition for
Living Begin?

Nutrition For Living began with a simple desire: to make a difference in people’s lives through nutrition. This journey took me, Annabel, from Melbourne to Townsville and Rockhampton, where I discovered my passion for specialising in gut health. My journey has evolved to include supporting women through perimenopause and menopause, and designing nutrition plans that support gut health alongside women’s health.

Motivated by my own experiences with IBS, I focused on learning all I could about managing gut health conditions.

In 2021, Brisbane became home, where I brought my dream to life by starting a practice dedicated to helping others improve their gut health.

Over the years, I’ve had the joy of providing personalised consults and telehealth services to a diverse group of clients as a gut health dietitian.

As demand grew for our services, so too did our team. I was thrilled to expand our team to include Michael Wilson, with expertise in mental health nutrition, trauma-informed care and eating disorder management, and Grace Gibson, who offers a wealth of knowledge in women’s health, PMOS and nutrition for perimenopause and menopause.

OUR TEAM

Our Dietitian Team

ABOUT ME

Hello, I’m Annabel Johnston

I’m an Accredited Practising Dietitian who genuinely loves what I do. I’ve been helping people understand their gut health for years and I know firsthand what it’s like to struggle with digestive issues that nobody seems to take seriously.

Now, I’m bringing that same depth of expertise to women’s health and perimenopause and menopause nutrition as a gut health specialist. I’ve seen firsthand how the right dietary support can change the way women feel during one of the most challenging transitions in their life. 

I believe nutrition advice should be warm, practical and backed by science never preachy and never one-size-fits-all.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Michael Wilson

As an Accredited Practising Dietitian, my clients come to me to discuss eating disorders and disordered eating, disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI), and the complex presentations where food, body, and identity intersect. 

I’m trauma-informed in everything I do, and I take that seriously. It’s a genuine commitment to making sure every client feels safe before we talk about anything else.

I believe everyone from any background should have access to an evidence-based, collaborative experience centred around you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Grace Gibson

With a clinical dietetics background, I work with complex, whole-person care no two patients present the same way, and no single recommendation fits everyone.

My areas of focus include women’s health, hormonal health, covering PMOS, endometriosis, perimenopause and menopause, alongside sustainable weight management, sports and performance nutrition, chronic disease prevention, and nutrition for overall wellbeing. 

Whatever brings you in, my goal is the same to help you feel like yourself again.

OUR VALUES

Who We Are Now: a Growing Brisbane Dietitian Team Supporting Patients and the GPs Who Refer Them.

Evidence-based, Always

Every recommendation is grounded in current research and clinical experience, not trends or fads.

Whole-Person, Whole-Team Care

Gut health, hormonal health, weight, and mental wellbeing are connected, and so is our team. Whether you see Annabel, Grace, or Michael, you’re getting care that considers the full picture.

Real Life, Real Food

We take a flexible, Mediterranean-style approach to eating. No elimination for the sake of it, no food fear, just practical guidance that fits real life.

Collaborative by Design

We work alongside GPs, specialists, and allied health professionals, because the best outcomes happen when your whole care team is talking to each other.
