Nutritional Therapist Ireland | Grainne Travers Nutrition About

About  me

Nutritionist, Lecturer, self-proclaimed amateur chef and mother to 2 children who keep me busy and amused! I am passionate about my work as a Nutritional Therapist, and found my love of cooking as soon as I could see above the kitchen counter. Luckily I grew up in a house where we grew our own vegetables, milked our own cows and made our own bread. Not quite “Little house on the Prairie”, but through rose tinted glasses it is not far off.

 

As a teenager, I really didn’t appreciate the efforts my parents went to, to put quality, whole food on the table for their 6 children, but little did I realise that it would been the foundation of my career as a Nutrition and Wellbeing Expert. And now I gratefully bow to their wisdom and commitment!

 

But I wasn’t always a nutritional therapist! For more than a decade I circumnavigated and succeeded in the corporate world of Marketing, PR and Sales. However, as the years went on the passion that once ignited me for this world dwindled and I was brought right back to my foundation – Food and Nutrition. Four years later (plus 2 babies in the middle), I qualified with Distinction as a Nutritional Therapist – and so began my new Nutrition Career I now have succeeded to jigsaw my experience together combining the skills I have attained in my careers-corporate, nutrition and parenthood (the most challenging of all!) and specialise in Nutrition and Wellbeing for TEAMS in both corporate and Sporting worlds.

 

In 2017 I joined the team in the Institute of Health Sciences, Dublin where I now lecture and Tutor in their Nutrition and Lifestyle Diploma to both national and International Students.
