Why it feels hard

Why a nutrition consultation is right for everyone

A nutrition consultation isn't just for people who want to lose weight or are dealing with health issues. Food and drink shape our energy, focus, digestion, sleep, athletic performance and long-term health every single day. Yet most of us put our diet together mainly out of habit, advice from the internet, or trial and error. A consultation helps you understand what your body actually needs, what you're already doing well, and where even small changes can make a surprisingly big difference.

Myths and the evidence behind them
  • A detox cure cleanses your body.

    What the research says

    Your body continuously processes and eliminates waste products on its own, mainly through the liver and kidneys. For a healthy person, there's no need to replace that process with juices, teas or any other “detox”.

  • To lose weight, you have to cut out bread and side dishes.

    What the research says

    Weight loss doesn't require banning any food group. What matters is a sustainable energy deficit over time, a well-balanced diet, and enough movement you actually enjoy.

  • Sugar is poison for the body.

    What the research says

    In small amounts, sugar isn't a toxic substance. What matters more for your health is your total intake, how often you consume it, and what your overall diet looks like.

  • The fewer calories you eat, the better you'll lose weight.

    What the research says

    Cutting calories too aggressively can hurt satiety, recovery, performance and how sustainable your routine is long term. The goal isn't to eat as little as possible, but to create a reasonable, sustainable calorie deficit.

  • As long as you eat healthy, portion sizes don't matter.

    What the research says

    The quality of your diet matters a great deal, but so does quantity. The same foods can lead to weight loss, maintenance or gain, depending purely on portion size.

  • You need to drink 3 liters of water every day.

    What the research says

    Fluid needs aren't the same for everyone. They depend on body weight, activity, ambient temperature, diet and health status. We also naturally get some of our water from whole, unprocessed foods.

How I work

I approach nutrition individually, in a way that makes changes actually work and make sense in your everyday life.

I don't believe in extremes, bans, or one-size-fits-all meal plans. I work from current scientific evidence, but it's just as important to me to understand you — your routine, preferences, constraints, health goals, and what's realistic for you long term.

  • 01

    Grounded in science

    I base my recommendations on current findings in nutrition, physiology, prevention and medicine — not on trends, miracle methods or alternative ideologies.

  • 02

    I look for solutions for you

    There's no single right meal plan for everyone. Together we find a way of eating that matches your rhythm of life, your tastes, your circumstances and your specific goals.

  • 03

    I want you to understand why

    Getting a list of what you ‘can’ and ‘can’t’ eat isn't enough. I explain the reasoning behind it so you can gradually make your own decisions, instead of depending on the next meal plan or diet.

  • 04

    I think long term

    The goal isn't a perfect routine for a few weeks. The goal is to build habits and a system that still work during a busy stretch at work, a holiday, dinner with friends, or a harder period in life.

My overall view of health and vitality

Nutrition isn't just about what's on your plate.

Food, digestion, sleep, movement, hydration and your mindset all influence each other. That's why I look at the connections that can explain how you feel and how well you're able to change your habits.

  • 01

    What and how you eat

    Together we look at the quality and variety of your diet, whether you get enough protein and fiber, the role of fats and carbohydrates, and how your eating fits into an ordinary day.

  • 02

    Hydration

    It isn't just about how many glasses of water you drink. Fluid needs change with activity, environment, diet and individual factors.

  • 03

    Daily rhythm

    Sleep, regular meals, timing and room for recovery can significantly affect hunger, cravings, focus, and your ability to stick with changes long term.

  • 04

    Mindset and habits

    Food isn't just physiology. Stress, emotions, motivation and ingrained patterns often decide whether a change actually sticks. That's why we also work with what's behind your everyday decisions.

  • 05

    Movement

    Movement isn't just a tool for burning energy. It supports muscle and bone health, metabolism, sleep and mental wellbeing. Together we find a type and amount of movement that fits your life and is sustainable long term.

Why I specialize in hydration

Hydration isn't just about how much fluid you drink. How it's spread across the day, activity, ambient temperature, your diet, and the balance of electrolytes like sodium and potassium all play an important role. Your hydration status has a proven effect on energy, focus, physical performance and how well your whole body functions.

About Anna

I live what I recommend.

I completed an MSc in nutritional sciences at the University of Vienna, specializing in molecular nutrition. I'm fascinated by what happens in the body at the cellular level — and equally by turning evidence-based facts into habits that actually support your health.

Reference
“What strikes you first is her professionalism, but what you take away is mostly her warmth, empathy and genuine wish to help.”

I originally reached out to Anička for nutrition advice, and I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised — not only by her knowledge, but by her approach.

It was clear from the start that she isn't after universal advice for everyone, but genuinely tries to understand the individual person and their situation. She always explained everything to me patiently, listened, and looked for solutions that are actually workable in everyday life.

I really appreciate her recommendations on food and supplements. The recipes are tasty, simple, and easy to fit into everyday life. Even though change doesn't happen overnight for me, and I know my path will probably be a longer one, I feel her advice has moved me in the right direction. For example, I've noticed an improvement in hair loss, and overall I feel like I finally understand my body a little better.

But maybe even more important to me than the knowledge itself is her human side. Anička is deeply empathetic and professional at the same time. She can listen to you without judgment and create an environment where you feel safe and understood.

I'd also like to mention that Anička works with children too — I brought my daughter Anička to see her, and she talked with her so nicely, explaining what matters for the body and what's good for healthy eating, and it wasn't boring or forced at all. I loved how she handled fluid intake: she had tastings of different options ready so my daughter could try what she liked. That was a big plus for us, since drinking enough is usually a struggle. I also liked her idea for supplements — for example, fish oil in a ‘gummy’ form, which my daughter enjoyed far more than the classic version.

I also had the chance to try one of her yoga classes and I was thrilled. Yoga had never really appealed to me before, but with Anička it was a completely different experience. She explains everything beautifully, helps, corrects, and you really feel like she's giving you her full attention. Her calm, energy and kindness really come through in class.

To me, Anička is proof that age isn't what matters. Even though she's young, she's incredibly capable, knowledgeable and mature as a person. You can tell she does her work with heart, and I'm very glad I found her.

I can recommend her to anyone looking not just for an expert, but for someone who genuinely cares about others.

What strikes you first is her professionalism, but what you take away is mostly her warmth, empathy and genuine wish to help ♥️
