The Wisdom of Nutrition in Healthy Living

Whether you are well and want to stay that way, or you want to achieve your highest potential through mindful eating, or you need guidance for any nutrition related condition …..spend some time with the experienced resident Nutrition and Dietetic Consultant at the Cape Town Medi-Spa. 

Ingrid Schloss [Bsc. Micro Med [Hons] Nutrition & Dietetics, RD] is a Nutrition Consultant and Coach with a postgraduate degree in Nutrition and Dietetics and more than 15 yrs of experience in various fields of nutrition including gut health. She is able to draw on her years as a clinical therapist in the United Kingdom and as a lecturer, researcher and Acting Head in the Division of Nutrition at the University of Cape Town.

Ingrid has also journeyed and gained insight into a broader approach to health and wellness, whether this has been through personal experience; interactions with various health/wellness practitioners or through the wisdom of her patients themselves. She consequently decided to leave academia and now runs a part-time private consultancy at the Cape Town Medi-Spa where she embraces a more holistic and integrated approach to nutrition and its benefits, in health and disease. She has also had the privilege of working together with various other practitioners in the facility which supports her philosophy that approaching the system as a whole, from various aspects, provides a more complete healing experience. Her deep respect for individual life- philosophies contributes to her belief that nutrition plays a pivotal role that varies with each person’s specific needs. Ingrid hopes that by sharing this, she may be able to empower recipients to make informed choices about managing their lifestyle appropriately in order to achieve optimal health.
