From the Desk of Maree Ferguson Founder & Director, Dietitian Connection S eeing Sav Manolis on this issue’s cover with champion fighter Jeff Horn reminded me of something very important: the value of thinking globally. Brissie-based Sav spent a chunk of time in Las Vegas recently during the lead-up to Jeff’s June fight in the US. He prepared meals in the casino kitchen for Jeff alongside renowned chefs. acquire cutting-edge knowledge from the world-class sports trainers he met, and shopped local markets to learn about emerging food trends in the US. Then he brought all of that back home to Australia – and his clients now enjoy a sports dietitian who is able to translate those global experiences into innovative, results- driven strategies. Apollo International Clinical Nutrition Update, Chennai India At DC, we, too, strive to think globally. Our intention – from our inception – was to create a community of dietitians connected around the planet. And while our roots remain firmly in Brisbane [we love you, city on the river!], these days more than ever we’re focused on embracing the world as a whole, for our members’ enrichment. © Dietitian Connection 4 Infuse | September 2018
