About me

Malithi Weerakkody_Gut Health Nutrition Specialist

Hi, I’m Malithi.

I am an NASM-Certified Nutrition Coach and an AFPA-Certified Gut Health Nutrition Specialist. In addition to my two professional certifications, I have an MSc in Food Science and Technology as well as a BSc in Microbiology.

For the past 10+ years, I have been working as a freelance science and blog writer and a researcher. Before that, I worked as a research scientist in Microbiology.

I enjoy reading research papers on nutrition, gut health, and the gut microbiome. (Yes, you can call me a nerd 🤓.)

I want to combine all my knowledge, expertise, and passions to create evidence-based, easy-to-understand content on gut health and nutrition to help you achieve a better quality of life.

When I’m not researching or creating content, I like to read books, bake, and try out different coffee recipes.

I live in Edmonton, Canada with my husband and two kids.
