About Our CEO, and President Karyn Sunohara
Hi, I’m Karyn Sunohara. I am a registered dietitian and chef. I am an auntie of 12 beautiful nieces and nephews. When I’m not spending time with my wonderful family, fur children, and spouse, I love writing recipes and testing out new meal creations. I have a passion for anything paediatrics including food allergies and intolerances both common and rare, and gut health challenges. I created For the LOVE of FOOD Nutrition Inc. to provide individuals and families with the best nutrition care.
Shortly after high school I enrolled in SAIT’s Professional Cooking Program. SAIT allowed me to build my confidence in my cooking skills and my passion for food, nutrition and cultures. While at SAIT I was very fortunate to work closely with my Chef instructors on special projects, banquets, and fundraisers. After graduating from SAIT I wanted to continue to learn and decided to enrol in the nutrition and dietetic program at Acadia University. While attending Acadia University for Nutrition and Dietetics I entered culinary competitions. I was fortunate to win 1st place in Atlantic Canada for Pulse Canada’s 2012 ImPULSEible recipe creation competition. I recently graduated from Acadia’s Nutrition and Dietetics program in Wolfville, Nova Scotia in May of 2013. In June 2014 I completed her dietetic internship at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto.

“Karyn was an invaluable asset as we worked through numerous issues with my baby’s food allergies. I highly recommend her and wish I found her months earlier in our allergy journey.”

“I have a rare immune disease that was in a severe flareup. None of my doctors or specialists could help me or give me answers. But Karyn had experience with people who have my condition, and recommended elimination diets and lifestyle changes that yielded a significant improvement in my condition very quickly! She also followed up frequently and was always available to answer my questions over email. She is a very caring person and an extremely professional nutritionist with a lot of experience.”
