Having completed a Bachelor Degree in Science with First Class Honors in Nutrition and Dietetics, Dr. Joanna moved to Australia and won a scholarship to complete her PhD with The University of Sydney in 1999. Today, Dr. Joanna is the founder of Get Lean, a regular on the Nine Network, and the official nutritionist for TODAY. She is also the author of several books, has a weekly column in the Sunday Life and a blogger for Woolworths Baby & Toddler Club.
She believes that having a good healthy relationship with food is just as important as eating nutritious foods, and she regards food as more than the nutrients it contains; rather, it is part of our social connection, our culture and a great source of pleasure in life.
