BetterByDesign Nutrition Ltd.

 

I am Joy Erdile (Kiddie) and I’m a full-time Registered Dietitian (RD) with a post-graduate degree in Human Nutrition. I’ve been in private practice in the greater Vancouver area since 2008 and am licensed in British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario. 

My areas of practice include Routine Services, Digestive Health, and Therapeutic Diets — and since health goals don’t always fall into neat categories, I can help if your needs are in more than one area. 

In 2024, I was honored to be recognized as one of Coquitlam’s top three businesses for weight loss, and I am passionate about helping people feel better and restore their health.

I design Meal Plans using a variety of dietary patterns, including vegetarian, Mediterranean, and low carb and keto which used to be offered through a dedicated low-carb division.  Regardless of the type that you choose, my approach doesn’t require you to keep a food journal, or constantly weigh and measure your food, or yourself!

Routine Services are available hourly and through packages designed to support adults of all ages. Whether you would like guidance on healthy eating, or need help with weight and health management, I can help.

I believe that there’s no one-size-fits-all diet, but that 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 of Asia and South Asia, North Africa, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean.

In January, I was honored to be recognized as one of Coquitlam’s top three weight loss centers for 2024.  

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