About Estelle du Plooy
Estelle is a registered Clinical Nutritionist and certified Breath Coach with a special interest in longevity and healthy ageing.
Estelle’s career started in the mining industry. Leading a team of management accountants, her work focused on budgeting, forecasting, projects and whole mine feasibility analysis.
Following a work transfer of her partner, they relocated to Australia from South Africa in 2002. The next 10 years her energy was focused on raising two boys. In 2012 they moved from Brisbane to Newcastle where she enrolled to study Bachelor of Biomedical Science. This provided her with a detailed understanding of the human body on all levels including anatomy, physiology, cell metabolism, immunology, and basic nutrition. To have a more patient care aspect, she subsequently completed a degree in nutrition, focusing on helping clients in a clinical setting.
Estelle lives in Newcastle with her husband and loves to catch up with her two young adult sons. She loves exercise and is forever trying to find enough time to pursue all her interests including strength and conditioning, cycling, swimming and occasionally surfing.
