Get To Know Anna
Dairy, almond, or oat milk? To intermittent fast or not? Are sugar alcohols really bad for you? There is a host of nutrition information out there and a million decisions to make. Registered Dietitian and wellness expert Anna Kalfayan makes healthy eating simple, easy to understand, and delicious.
Anna is a registered dietitian, content creator, and wellness expert living in Southern California with her husband and daughter. She is also the founder of The Gut Girlie, a company focused on holistic wellness, promoting the interconnectedness of physical health and mental well-being.
Anna’s passion for nutrition grew after a severe psoriasis outbreak during her college years. Fed up with the itching and pain of this autoimmune disease, she began to remove all processed foods and focus on a whole food mindset. After a year, her skin cleared, her energy grew, and her immune system improved immensely, thus beginning her journey into nutrition education.
​
Anna received her bachelor’s degree in marketing from the University of San Diego and completed her postgraduate studies at Point Loma Nazarene University, where she received her registered dietitian certification.
​
During the COVID pandemic, Anna decided to start posting her nutrition content on TikTok, sharing grocery hauls, high-protein meal ideas, busting nutrition myths, as well as snippets of her motherhood journey. She began creating content for wellness brands to help kickstart their social media and continues to do so today. Some of her past clients include Maxine’s Heavenly Cookies, ACURE, O Olive Oil, Simple Mills, Harmless Harvest, and Smarty Pants.
​
When she is not working, Anna enjoys hanging out at the beach with her family, cooking up new recipes in the kitchen, surfing, camping, or adventuring in a new city.
