Joel Feren is The Nutrition Guy, an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) and Nutritionist with a background in biomedical sciences. Aside from his work in private practice, Joel doesn’t fit the mould of a traditional dietitian. Instead, he can be found regularly consulting to the food industry, writing nutrition articles for print and online publications, presenting on television for Channel 10’s My Market Kitchen and Studio 10 and engaging in media based work via his role as a Media Spokesperson for the Dietitians Association of Australia.
Joel is passionate about dietitians working in the food industry and enjoys the challenge of debunking commonly held nutrition myths in the media. He believes that nutrition is too important to be an afterthought for food brands and businesses, and dietitians can play a fundamental role in improving the nutritional quality of our food.
In this chat, Joel opens up about his experiences consulting to food industry and working with the media. He reflects on some career highlights, and shares some of the challenges and feelings of self doubt that he has overcome along the way to find success.
As for me? Well I've rebranded! The Naked Truth is no more. Instead, I'm now working under my own name, Rachel Hawkins.
