FAQ’s

What's the difference between a registered dietitian and a nutritionist?

Registered dietitians (RDs) are nutrition experts who have completed specific educational and professional requirements, including earning a bachelor’s degree, completing supervised practice, and passing a national examination. They are also required to maintain their credentials through continuing education. Nutritionists, on the other hand, may have varying levels of education and expertise, and their qualifications are not standardized. Working with a registered dietitian ensures that you are receiving guidance from a highly trained and qualified professional.

What can I expect during a typical session?

During a session with a registered dietitian, we will discuss your health goals, dietary preferences, and any medical conditions you may have. We’ll work together to create a personalized nutrition plan that fits your lifestyle and helps you achieve your objectives. Sessions may include meal planning, nutrition education, goal setting, and ongoing support and accountability.
