Jade Manuel (Menio)

About Jade

I’m a multifaceted dietitian with a chef’s knife in one hand and a nutrition degree in the other. With roots in personal chef work and clinical nutrition, I blend flavor and function to help you eat well and love it. Whether you’re managing a health condition, feeling lost in the sea of nutrition advice, or just want to get more confident in the kitchen, I’ll meet you where you are. With evidence-based strategies, a little humor, and a whole lot of real-world support, we’ll create something that works for you.

Approach to care

I know food is deeply personal—tied to culture, memories, health, and everyday habits. That’s why I bring a non-judgmental, supportive approach to every session. I’m here to support you, help you build sustainable habits, and make food feel good again—physically, emotionally, and practically. No shame. No fads. Just real talk, real food, and strategies that actually work for you. Whether we’re tackling meal plans or sauté pans, I believe nourishment should feel good—in your body, on your plate, and in your life.

Your first session with Jade

Your first session is all about you. We’ll start with a relaxed, judgment-free conversation about your health history, eating habits, lifestyle, and goals—whether you’re here for support with medical conditions, meal planning, or just to feel better in your own skin. No scales. No shame. No one-size-fits-all plans. Instead, you’ll get personalized guidance, clear next steps, and a safe space to ask questions. I’ll meet you exactly where you are—and we’ll build from there, together. Oh, and if you love to talk about food? You’re in the right place.
