Welcome to Nutrition and Diet Refined, your trusted source for nutrition, plant-based recipes, and practical guidance for living a healthier lifestyle.
I’m Petra Chi, a trained nutritionist, certified Raw Food Chef, and the founder of Nutrition Refined. Based in Canada, I have dedicated my career to helping people transform their relationship with food and embrace a lifestyle rooted in balance, wellness, and nourishment.
Since January 2016, this blog has been my space to share my knowledge, experiences, and love for whole, plant-based foods. What started as a personal journey soon became a global platform where readers come for inspiration, evidence-based information, and easy-to-follow nutrition guidance.
Growing up, I developed a deep passion for food — not just eating it, but understanding its impact on the body, mind, and overall health. This curiosity led me to train as a nutritionist and later become a certified Raw Food Chef.
Over the years, I realized how overwhelming nutrition advice can feel — one day a food is called “super,” and the next it’s labeled harmful. I wanted to cut through the confusion and bring people clear, science-backed, and practical advice they could trust. That is how Nutrition Refined was born.
At Nutrition and Diet Refined, my mission is to simplify healthy living and make plant-based eating approachable for everyone.
Here’s what you’ll discover on this site:
Balanced Nutrition Guidance – Evidence-based articles about whole foods, diets, and lifestyle choices that support long-term health.
Plant-Based Recipes – Practical, delicious, and nutrient-dense meals that fit into everyday life.
Meal Plans & Ideas – Easy, affordable, and creative solutions to help you stay on track.
Wellness Tips – Strategies for portion control, mindful eating, and building sustainable habits.
Every article is designed to be original, trustworthy, and practical, whether you’re just beginning your nutrition journey or looking for advanced insights.
In today’s digital world, there is no shortage of health advice — but not all of it is accurate or safe. At Nutrition Refined, I make a promise to my readers:
Expertise – As a trained nutritionist and certified Raw Food Chef, I combine professional knowledge with real-world experience.
Credibility – All content is thoroughly researched, using reputable sources such as peer-reviewed journals, health organizations, and certified nutrition resources.
Clarity – I break down complex nutrition concepts into simple, actionable steps.
Balance – This is not about fad diets or quick fixes, but about sustainable, long-term wellness.
This approach has allowed Nutrition Refined to build a loyal and growing community of readers worldwide.
I believe food is more than fuel — it is a powerful tool for healing, energy, and joy. At Nutrition Refined, I celebrate whole, plant-based foods that nourish the body and mind.
My philosophy is simple:
Eat more whole, natural foods and fewer processed products.
Enjoy variety and balance rather than restriction.
Cook with love and creativity because food should bring joy, not stress.
