HI, I’M KARELLE

Helping you feel your best through nutrition that fits your life.

I’m a Nutrition Therapist trained at the Institute for Optimum Nutrition (ION), with a functional nutrition approach. I work with people who want to better understand what is going on with their health and feel more confident about what to do next.

​

My approach is practical and personalised. We look at your food, lifestyle, symptoms and, when it is useful, functional testing to gather more information and create a plan that works for you.

​

I’m proud to have won the Health & Wellness Award at the 2025 Algarve Business Awards, and to be a finalist again in 2026—recognition of my commitment to practical, personalised nutrition support.

FUNCTIONAL TESTING

When it can be useful to look a little deeper

Sometimes your symptoms and food history give us a lot of information. At other times, functional testing can provide additional insights and help guide your nutrition plan.

​

Depending on the situation, this may include gut and digestive testing, hormone and cortisol testing, nutrient and metabolic testing, and selected genetic testing.

​

Testing isn’t necessary for everyone, but when it is needed, it can help us make your plan more specific.
