Tania Cosco

Clinical nutritionist

I'm Tania Cosco. Clinical nutritionist, and the founder of Primaera.

I hold a Bachelor of Health Science (Nutrition) and an Advanced Diploma of Nutritional Medicine, and I'm a member of the Australian Traditional Medicine Society and the American Society of Nutrition.

Before Primaera there was Transcend Nutrition, my own practice. It taught me the thing I've built on ever since: the work starts before the consultation does. I read your history first, so we open with understanding rather than paperwork. Whole picture first. Then the order.

My work sits in the layer underneath how you actually feel. How blood sugar and insulin behave across a day. How thyroid function, iron and B12 decide whether your energy holds to the afternoon. How the gut shapes immunity and mood. How protein and training load determine whether muscle is kept or quietly lost. How micronutrient status underwrites skin, sleep and recovery. How your needs change through every hormonal stage of life.

I read blood chemistry against optimal physiology, not reference ranges alone. And I read systems against each other, never one marker on its own.

I grade what I recommend by the evidence behind it, and I tell you where that evidence is still thin. Some of this field is well established. Some of it is early. You'll always know which one you're looking at.

Where something moves into prescribing, it moves to our prescriber. That line is deliberate. I designed the model around it.

I built Primaera to put nutrition, clinical care and ongoing support into one plan instead of three.

Consultations by video, Australia-wide; in-clinic, Inner West Sydney.

Care decisions and suitability for any program are always determined by a clinician after a consultation.
