Hi, I’m Ishani, a degree-qualified Clinical Nutritionist, registered member of the Australian Natural Therapists Association (ANTA), and founder of Lemon Tree Clinical Nutrition. Based in North Melbourne, I provide personalised, evidence-based online nutrition consultations to clients across Australia.

My interest in nutrition began with my passion for creating healthy, delicious recipes and learning about the impact food choices can have on our health and wellbeing. My own experience with gut issues inspired me to look deeper into the connection between food, digestion and overall health, and to help others better understand and support their own wellbeing.

A little more about me

Outside of clinical practice, I am a mum of two girls and a Miniature Schnauzer. I enjoy spending time in nature, practising yoga and slow cups of tea. My daily walks are a part of my everyday ritual and help me feel grounded and balanced.

Areas of Interest

Gut Health and Digestive Support

We explore dietary, lifestyle and other contributing factors that may influence digestive health, including intestinal permeability. Where appropriate, functional testing may be used to investigate potential underlying factors and provide further insight, helping to guide personalised nutrition strategies rather than relying on guesswork.

Results are interpreted to provide insights into individual genetic predispositions and help guide tailored nutrition and lifestyle strategies to support long-term health and wellbeing.
