About
  • I am Joy Erdile (Kiddie) and I am a full-time Registered Dietitian (RD) with a post-graduate degree in Human Nutrition. I have been in private practice in the greater Vancouver area since 2008 and my areas of practice include Routine Services, Digestive Health, as well as Therapeutic Diets.

    I design Meal Plans using a variety of dietary patterns, including vegetarian, Mediterranean, as well as low carb and keto (which used to be offered through a dedicated low carb division). Regardless of the dietary pattern 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 as well as through a range of packages, including the Comprehensive Dietary Package for those looking for weight and health management, a Healthy Aging Package for men and women who want to retain muscle and bone mass as they age, a Prenatal Package, a Menopause Management Package for ‘women of a certain age’, as well as a specialized package for those diagnosed with PCOS, and another for those recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism (Hashimoto’s).

    I provide digestive health services to individuals with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), food allergies and food sensitivities, those newly diagnosed with celiac disease, ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease, as well as one to help people reduce the occurrence of constipation and hemorrhoids.

    I also have more than seven years experience designing therapeutic ketogenic diets as adjunct treatment for some physical health conditions, and in the last few years as adjunct therapy in mental health.

    I believe that there is no one-size-fits-all approach, 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, Middle East and the Mediterranean.

Interesting Facts

In March 2017, I was at a crossroads with respect to my own health. It was more like a crisis. I lost 55 pounds and 12 inches off my waist, and put my high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes into remission. In August 2022, I was diagnosed with profound hypothyroidism and have since changed my lifestyle once again to best support my health. You could say that I understand weight loss and health recovery from both sides of the clinical desk.
