About Christine

Christine Yip is a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist. Her passion for nutrition began at a young age after meeting with a dietitian to manage her own health, and watching her grandmother struggle with diabetes. These early experiences inspired her dedication to helping others manage their blood sugars, achieve healthy weight loss, support heart health, and embrace overall wellness.

Christine is a compassionate and collaborative dietitian who takes a personalized approach to nutrition care. She creates a supportive, judgment-free space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered in their health journey. Christine believes that nutrition should be fun, engaging, and exciting—not overwhelming. Her goal is to simplify the science and make healthy eating approachable and stress-free. By breaking goals into small, achievable steps, Christine helps clients build lasting, sustainable habits that align with their unique needs and lifestyle. Fluent in Cantonese and deeply appreciative of Asian cuisine, she is passionate about helping individuals enjoy their favorite cultural foods while supporting their health. Her approach emphasizes balance, flexibility, and empowerment—guiding clients to take charge of their well-being without restrictive diets or giving up the foods they love. Fun fact: Christine loves donuts just as much as fruit salad!
