Episode 7: Fuelling Success with Be Fit Food with female founder, Kate Save
Next up on the Fruitful Entrepreneurs Podcast, and the first episode for 2024, host Shelley Tilbrook, chats with female founder, Kate Save, from Be Fit Food, about her entrepreneur journey, her determination to solve an industry problem stemming from her own lived experience and expertise. She shares her insights, lessons, challenges as well as some nutritional tips for entrepreneurs to perform at their best.
From successfully pitching on Shark Tank, to growing 1500% overnight, to managing the operational demands, to now expanding the business through Woolworths and Chemist Warehouse - this is well worth tuning in for this inspiring journey and success story.
There’s no denying that Australia’s obesity rates are continuously on the rise and there is little education in place to show the public the effects of added sugar & sodium, high carb & large portioned diets can have not just on our weight, but on our general health & wellbeing.
That’s why our founder, Kate Save, an accredited practising dietitian & exercise physiologist, started Be Fit Food.

Be Fit Food has one main goal: to help Australians to eat themselves better.
The programs give our customers the food, resources and dietitian support they need to healthily lose weight rapidly and sustain their weight loss through eating nutrient-rich, real food rather than resorting solely on shakes, bars or detox teas.
The recipes are created by our team of dietitians and are designed to bring the body into mild nutritional ketosis, which makes the body burn stored fat rather than carbohydrates and helps our customers to feel fuller for longer, have more energy throughout their day, sleep better and help towards other health benefits such as lowered cholesterol & balanced blood sugar levels.
