Private Zoom Teen Cooking

Edwina Erkins Teen Cooking Workshop

I’m a qualified Nutritionist (ATMS 27167) with a Master’s in Nutrition from Deakin University, currently enrolled in a Masters in Youth Mental Health with Melbourne University. I’m also a Student Member of Sports Dietetics Association (student member 5561) and a Member of Nutrition Australia.

I am passionate about empowering teenagers to understand and own their nutrition choices and decisions. The teen years are the perfect time to educate, practice and create healthy eating habits before they leave home, grow into adults and become too set in their ways.

It’s never too early or too late to improve your health. Developing healthy habits takes time and commitment. Small changes make a massive difference. It is important is to understand that what you put into your mouth every day (diet and nutrition) determines the ability of your body not only to perform daily, but also effects your focus levels at school, work and sleep, along with your overall emotional wellbeing.

Hi, I’m Edwina

The Power of Food

Food is the ‘fuel’ that generates power in each body cell and system, including your brain, muscular skeletal and immune systems.

Many don’t realise how much control they have over their own health. We are all born with a unique genetic profile, but our health destiny is not pre-determined. Our diet, lifestyle and environment can switch on and off specific genes which determine our health.

The benefits of making diet and nutrition a top priority every day will not only make a difference within a few weeks but will also help you fight off chronic disease such as diabetes and cardiovascular conditions in the future.

Take the first step

Take the first step by booking an InBody Composition and Nutrition Assessment appointment with Edwina.  

An InBody analysis will give you data on your internal health including your ratio of muscle mass to fat levels and visceral fat (dangerous fat around the organs). You can then set your diet, lifestyle and training goals based on evidence not on guess work.

Proud World Vision Sponsor

I recently visited my sponsor child, Regina, in Kenya as part of World Vision’s Strong Women Strong World campaign. Seeing the impact firsthand was incredible.

What stood out

World Vision is run like a world-class organisation.
$48/month (just $1.50/day) supports education, family programs, and more.
 Clean water access is life-changing—girls can attend school, and communities thrive.

We take so much for granted. Sponsorship truly makes a difference. 

I encourage you to join me in giving back.
