EXPERIENCE & EXPERTISE

Joy Erdile - Registered DietitianI’m Joy Erdile (Kiddie), and I’ve been in private practice in Coquitlam since 2008. My services fall into three categories: Routine, Digestive Health, and Therapeutic Diets. 

I can help you normalize your cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure, reduce fatty liver, and achieve long-term weight loss. If you’ve already been told to “eat less and move more,” you know that this advice doesn’t work over the long term because it doesn’t address the underlying issue of hunger and cravings. I can design a Meal Plan for you and teach you how to eat in a way that keeps you satisfied between meals and helps curb cravings, leading to improved energy, the ability to be more active, improved lab results, and sustainable weight loss. For most people, the Comprehensive Dietary Package is best suited to meet these needs.

I support people across the lifecycle, including providing a Prenatal Dietary Package to support women during all three trimesters of their pregnancy, and helping middle-aged and older adults remain healthy as they age through the Healthy Aging PackageI also have years of experience supporting women struggling with the complexities of PCOS, as well as “women of a certain age” dealing with the symptoms of menopause

I offer a range of Digestive Health Packages for those recently diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disorder (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and colitis, celiac disease, and SIBO, as well as for people either newly diagnosed or having long-standing IBS. I also provide a Low FODMAP Diet Package.

I am experienced in designing therapeutic ketogenic diets for physical and mental health and supporting those with lesser-known conditions, including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), Mast Cell Activation Disorder/Syndrome, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Histamine Intolerance, and aspects of Long COVID. You can find information about these specialty services under Therapeutic Diets.

I offer several different dietary patterns, including vegetarian, Mediterranean, and low-carb or keto (previously provided through a dedicated low-carb division), and am licensed in British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario.

I am passionate about helping people feel better and restore their health, and believe that Nutrition is BetterByDesign©.

No one sized fits all but Nutrition is BetterByDesign.

MULTICULTURAL MEAL PLANS

I specialize in multicultural Meal Plans and have in-depth knowledge of the food and cultural practices from many regions, including parts of Asia, South Asia, North and Central Africa, the Caribbean, the Middle East, the Balkans, and the Mediterranean.

 

HIGHLY RATED

I am very appreciative of the reviews that I have received from former and returning clients, and I continue to strive for excellence in all the services that I provide.

PUBLISHED RESEARCHER

I was the lead researcher on a clinical study in mental health nutrition. The link is available under the “About Me” tab.

NOT SURE WHERE TO BEGIN?

Not everyone’s needs fall into neat categories, so if you’re unsure where to start, the Initial Hourly Consultation is perfect for that. You can meet with me, share your health background and the different approaches you’ve tried, and we can discuss together the most cost-effective way to combine services.  Should you start there and decide to move forward by taking one of my packages, then any remaining time in the Initial Hourly Consultation can be ‘banked’ and used later for follow-up services.

For information about booking services, using your extended benefits, payment options, clinical hours, etc., please visit the FAQs section.
