About Me
Bent Fork Nutrition is the brainchild of Krista Leck Merner. Krista received her Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition (Honours) with Kinesiology from Acadia University. She went on to complete her Dietetic Internship and is a registered member of both the Nova Scotia Dietetic Association and Dietitians of Canada.
Krista has been working within the fields of fitness and community health over the past ten years. Throughout her career, she has worked with individuals, athletes, workplaces and community groups to improve their nutrition practices. Combined with her personal passion for health and wellness and her desire to help others adopt this lifestyle, she has helped hundreds of clients achieve success! Whether it is losing weight, regulating blood sugars, increasing vegetable intakes or improving performance, Krista’s approach to nutrition is individualized, realistic and goal oriented.
There is often a misconception that dietitians will only tell you what not to eat! However, this is not always the case. Krista combines her own love of food, with client food preferences and lifestyle, to achieve success in establishing lifelong healthy habits!
