ANGELA LEACH
Angie completed her BSc Dietetics at the University of the Free State with all the âtoolsâ required to go out into the world as a registered dietitian. It was also at university that her love for FUTURELIFEÂŽ was ignited, as she saw the value of a then very new FUTURELIFEÂŽ Smart food⢠in obtaining balanced nutrition with benefits on a limited student budget.
After University she started her career completing a community service year at Grey Hospital and as one of only two dietitians at the hospital, she was able to gain valuable experience in multiple spheres of dietetics and treat a variety of disease states. Her passion for community outreach and the value of nutrition education were also harnessed over this period.
After spending a year in a clinical setting, Angie decided it was time to spread her wings and see what else the world of dietetics had to offer - she started out as a FUTURELIFEÂŽ dietitian at the beginning of 2013, having found a company where she could grow, learn and add value. FUTURELIFEÂŽâs values align completely with mine, and I love thatâ, she says.
Angie is also a sports nutrition enthusiast and as an avid mid to long distance runner herself, understands the complexities of tweaking the diet to best reach individual requirements for optimal performance outcomes.
As a mom, Angie is also passionate about maternal and paediatric nutrition. She loves that FUTURELIFEÂŽ products can make a motherâs life easier by fulfilling the nutritional needs of both a pregnant or breastfeeding mother and kids in multiple convenient and versatile formats.
Angie has been a part of the âFUTURELIFEÂŽ familyâ for over 8 years and has loved being part of all the growth and development that has taken place. As Head Dietitian she has the privilege of managing the wonderful team of FUTURELIFEÂŽ dietitians across South Africa.
