Welcome to Feed Your Happiness – your playground for evidence-based articles, nutritious recipes and inspiration to help you live with health, happiness and meaning.

Hi there, I am Alana Krahe and Feed Your Happiness is my voice on how to add more health, happiness and meaning to your life.

I am a writer and nutritionist with a particular love for sharing my learnings to empower you to create and maintain a truly good life.

For those of you into credentials, I have a love for both art and science with a Bachelor of Communication and Bachelor of Health Science (Nutritional Medicine).

As a nutritionist, I am deeply committed to providing personalised and practical solutions to help my clients live each day feeling the best they possibly can. After all, it is our quality of life that matters most.

I am also fascinated by the extraordinary ability of the human body to adapt and transform. I love sharing this with my clients as they achieve positive and lasting results.

My nutritional medicine knowledge allows me to provide research-based diet and lifestyle interventions that promote ongoing health and wellness.

As there is so much more to health than genetics and physical symptoms, I enjoy spending time to understand my client’s emotional and social functioning. This helps to identify my client’s underlying causes of impaired health and wellbeing and guides my treatment approach.

My approach is genuine, warm and patient centred. I like to understand what it is like to walk in my client’s shoes. If you think I could help you with personalised health advice, make a booking and I look forward to meeting you soon.

As a writer, I believe in communicating credible and evidence-based information in simple language to help you make informed choices regarding your health and wellbeing.

I have always been passionate about writing, having spent over 10 years working in marketing and communications for leading pharmaceutical and healthcare brands. While I enjoyed these years, I always wanted to go my own way and inspire from an independent perspective. This was the catalyst for my passion project Feed My Happiness.

When not writing, reading or practicing as a nutritionist, you will find me enjoying the simple life. Spending quality time with my family and friends, getting outside for my daily dose of vitamin D, making a mess in the kitchen and trying to escape my two ratbag children to listen to live music keeps me out of trouble.

I hope you can use this site to create positive change in your life.

The philosophy for Feed Your Happiness is centred around my core beliefs:

In living with health, happiness and meaning.

Health is allowing your body and mind to function optimally.

Happiness is striving for an ongoing sense of contentment rather than the transient state of being happy.

Living with meaning is discovering, creating and evolving your authentic inner self.

Eating, moving, thinking, resting and belonging are essential for allowing us to thrive.

Knowledge is powerful and allows us to grow.

In credible and evidence-based research.

In simplifying scientific and biochemical knowledge into actionable steps.

In promoting preventative health and how to best manage and overcome the underlying causes of health conditions and illnesses.

We are all human (and love chocolate or some other vice), so I will not encourage perfection, but small improvements over the lifetime.

In supporting honest research and lifelong learning as science continues to uncover just some of the answers to our complex functioning.

In personalised health and that living a happy and meaningful life is unique for us all.

In empowering and inspiring so we can all live a good life.
