How I work
I'm Mafalda Gonçalves, Nutritionist at Clínica da Vila. I hold a degree in Nutrition Sciences and a Master's in Clinical Nutrition, with a practice oriented towards supporting adults and older adults at different life stages.
My areas include nutrition for fertility, obesity and excess weight in adults, chronic disease prevention and dietary education. I also work on nutrition for older adults, including dysphagia, sarcopenia, tube or PEG feeding, pressure ulcers and chronic wounds.
"Eating well is rarely about rules. It's about understanding the body, the context and the goals of each person, and calmly building a sustainable way to look after yourself."
Every meal plan is built together, adjusted to lifestyle, clinical condition and personal goals, because eating habits only work when they can be kept up day to day.
