I'd like to introduce...
Anisha Gupta - your new nutrition bestie.
Registered Dietitian + Nutrition Coach to help you take your health to the next level.
My Story
I grew up in Mississauga, Ontario at a time when everyone’s parents were immigrants. My parents were learning their place in this new society, but wanted to hold onto our heritage as much as possible. The result: I shied away from anything cultural outside the walls of my home – God help my mother if she made me walk into a grocery store wearing an Indian suit!
But as the years rolled by, I began to embrace my roots. I’d bring Indian food for lunch, and my car would resonate with the rhythm of my favorite Punjabi songs without a worry in the world.
I know I am fortunate. My upbringing in my South Asian household was not marked by unwelcome body criticism, but at a young age, I witnessed it happen to others: the relentless pressure to lose weight, the judgment, and the emotional scars it left behind. These early experiences have been a driving force in shaping my path as a dietitian.
My Story
Fast forward to today, I’m a mom of two, juggling the responsibilities of running my own business. When I say I know exhaustion, I mean I know exhaustion! I used to place my own needs at the bottom of the list, constantly prioritizing others, especially my children. It wreaked havoc on my health, leading to sleepless nights, hair loss, persistent skin issues, and even a panic attack. I was heading straight for burnout city. So, I decided to dig deeper, seeking answers beyond just managing symptoms, which is pretty much what every doctor I saw prescribed for me.
Through a journey of self-discovery, reflection, and extensive research, I unraveled the root causes of my health challenges – hormonal imbalances, mineral deficiencies, my demotivated mindset, and the lack of balance within my life. This discovery fueled the 6 foundational pillars that Hello Nutrition now sits on: sleep, stress, hydration, movement, nutrition and mindset. Health requires a holistic, well rounded approach to create sustainable results. I’ve walked the walk, talked the talk and now get to inspire amazing clients like you to strive for greatness!
I'm here to teach you how to become a balanced and nutritious eater, without compromising on the foods you love.
Healthy eating doesn’t have to be hard. I’m here to make it as simple and easy as possible, so you can get on with the more important things in life – like truly living and enjoying life.
This burning desire fueled my passion to become a nutrition coach. Along this path, I’ve connected with countless incredible humans who, much like myself, have wrestled with anxiety, burnout, overwhelm, brain fog, and always feeling like they have to “catch up”. Their stories have deeply touched me. What I’ve learned is that it’s not a lack of information that keeps us stuck, but rather the overwhelming flood of information and the daunting question of where to begin.
So here’s my mission as a dietitian: to empower you to rewrite that negative inner dialogue, to cultivate lasting, nourishing habits, and to wholeheartedly embrace the richness of your cultural foods. This mission is about sculpting a brighter, healthier future for yourself. I’m here to be your guide, your advocate, and your trusted partner on this incredible journey.
Are you ready to embark on this path, hand in hand?
Things I really love...
Travelling all over the city to speak at events
Sitting outside, listening to the sounds of nature
Binge watching a suspenseful TV show
Enjoying a good quality, melt in your mouth, piece of chocolate
MY GOAL IS TO EMPOWER YOU...
I BELIEVE THAT...
Diets and quick fixes don’t work. I want to show you how nourishing your body, practicing mindful eating, and building a harmonious connection with yourself are the keys to your weight success and happiness.
MY GREATEST PRIORITY IS...
simplifying your path to success. It’s not about overwhelming you with more information, but simplifying the next step towards the future you desire.

Way Back Where it all Started…
During my educational journey, I earned my BASc in food and nutrition. It was a time of exploring the science behind food and discovering the foundations of a healthy diet – a vital step in my path to becoming the dietitian I am today.
I was so excited to accept my first nutrition job, working as a Nutrition Technologist at my local hospital. I had amazing mentors and gained tons of hands-on experience crafting menus that catered to patients’ dietary needs. It was a great learning experience, but I found myself yearning for more.
I made the decision to go back to school and pursue my Master’s degree in Dietetics. My master’s degree took my nutrition knowledge to a whole new level. It was the best decision I ever made. On December 18, 2013, I passed the licensing exam,, and officially became a licensed Dietitian in the province of Ontario, Canada.
I made my debut in the workforce as a Dietitian. I worked in doctors’ offices, providing counseling to patients dealing with various health challenges, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, and weight management. It became clear to me that our healthcare system had gaps, and the traditional methods of patient counseling were failing. So I decided to make yet another pivot in my career…
Hello Nutrition was born
I registered my new business and called it Hello Nutrition. I am now my own boss and am able to offer personalized guidance, recognizing that everyone’s health journey is as distinct as their fingerprint. Through my signature coaching programs & courses, I’ve been able to witness hundreds of remarkable transformations. It’s been such a ride, and we haven’t even reached the peaks yet!
