Bruce Duncan Waithe, founder of Fuel Nutrition a Toronto based meal delivery service is a self taught chef building his skills over the years on a lifelong passion for creating healthy meals with a gourmet touch. Bruce has always had a strong connection to food, learning the art of combining flavors and fresh ingredients from his early beginnings hanging on the coat tails of his mother in the kitchen.  Although his career began in the fitness industry it would soon lead him down another path that would be the perfect marriage between his passion for food and fitness. 

With a 25 year history in the fitness industry behind him, Bruce had established himself as one of his fields most highly respected examples of what it means to live a fit and healthy lifestyle. While working as a personal trainer and fitness instructor Bruce translated his passion for healthy food into a successful catering and private chef business. As if by fate one of Bruce’s longtime fitness clients was also a gourmet chef and taught him the foundations of working in a professional kitchen, ultimately preparing him to take his business in the culinary world to the next level.

The word quickly spread that Bruce was the Chef de cuisine of healthy eating and it was possible to enjoy great food even while working towards lofty fitness goals.  A natural talent to transform wholesome ingredients into gourmet meals that would tempt even the most discerning palates had emerged.

With many requests from fitness clients to provide homemade meals that would keep them in shape and rival the flavors of the city’s top restaurants born was the idea of Fuel Nutrition.  A novel approach to clean eating, meals delivered to your doorstep daily catering to those who either did not have the time or commitment to preparing healthy meals for themselves.

Over the past 5 years establishing Fuel Nutrition as a thriving business, Bruce himself has grown and evolved as a chef experimenting with flavors and incorporating the principles of optimal nutrition into his menus.   Bruce’s sister, Holistic Nutritionist Michelle Waithe works as part of the Fuel Team on this aspect of the business.  Michelle has always been inspired by Bruce’s healthy lifestyle leading to her own career in the field of nutrition.  The combination of Michelle’s nutritional knowledge and Bruce’s culinary expertise is what sets Fuel Nutrition apart, creating extraordinary food that is fresh, nutritious, and delicious.

Michelle Waithe, BaSc., RHN, PTS holds a Bachelors Degree in Nutrition from Ryerson University, is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, a graduate of The Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, and is a Can-Fit Pro Certified Personal Trainer.

Michelle’s journey into health and nutrition began at a very young age inspired by her older brother Bruce which has led to a lifelong passion and career inspiring others to achieve optimal health for themselves.  Growing up watching Bruce live a healthy active lifestyle that included a passion for natural whole foods ignited a spark of desire in Michelle to walk this path as well.
