About Ryan
Ryan Pinto is an advanced sports dietitian with more than a decade of experience working alongside elite athletes and professional sporting organisations. He has led nutrition programmes for some of Australia's most prominent teams, including the South Sydney Rabbitohs, NSW Waratahs, Brisbane Broncos, Manly Sea Eagles, and Cricket NSW, helping athletes maximise performance, recovery, and long-term health through evidence-based nutrition.
Ryan believes there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all diet. Every plan he creates is personalised to the individual, built around their goals, lifestyle, training demands, body composition, and overall health. His approach combines the latest scientific evidence with practical strategies that people can realistically maintain, because lasting results come from sustainable habits, not restrictive diets.
At The Spierings Medical Group, Ryan works closely with the medical team to help patients improve body composition, optimise performance, support healthy ageing, and use nutrition as a powerful tool to improve both health and quality of life. He sees SMG patients via telemedicine from Sydney, Australia, and holds an active DHA licence.
