Caryn Zinn - Dietitian

I’m the owner of Caryn Zinn Nutrition and have been providing nutrition consultancy for over 25 years. In the past decade, my practice has focused on a holistic, whole-food approach to nutrition, lifestyle, and sports performance, with a special emphasis on metabolic health. My expertise includes whole-food, carbohydrate-reduced nutrition and the therapeutic use of ketogenic diets—particularly for insulin resistance-related conditions such as weight management, diabetes, menopause, and inflammation.

To get in touch, you can use the website contact tab, call me on 021 422 911, or email caryn@cz-nutrition.com.

Consultations may be claimable through selected comprehensive health insurance providers.

 

Sylvia Goedeke - Dietitian

I am a registered dietitian with a special interest in women's health, fertility, and pregnancy nutrition. I have been consulting in private practice since completing my masters in dietetics in 2016. In 2023, I completed my PhD in 2023, which focused on hyperinsulinaemia in pregnancy and gestational diabetes. I love to help clients use nutrition and lifestyle to optimise their metabolic health - it’s never just weight loss, but when health improves, it’s also the reduced inflammation, less pain, better hormones, and energy levels. I have specific expertise in addressing and overcoming digestive concerns and chronic inflammatory conditions. I am generally not satisfied by being told that I need to learn to live with sub‑optimal health; I am interested in getting to the root cause to develop sustainable ways forward. To me, holistic nutrition care means taking in the whole picture to develop nutrition and lifestyle approaches that get you to your goals and help you stay healthy.

Consultations are claimable on selective comprehensive health insurance schemes.

I am currently on maternity leave until October 2025. After that, feel free to contact me, phone 0210349245 or email sylvia@cz-nutrition.com

We work remotely, usually on ZOOM, but also over the phone if you'd prefer.
