RD Consultation

Could a personal meal plan help you control your weight, improve athletic performance or manage your medical condition? A Registered Dietitian is a food and nutrition expert who reviews your current goals and circumstances and develops a nutrition strategy to properly improve your eating habits.
Registered dietitians have met academic and professional requirements and passed a national exam for the credential "RD." They can administer medical nutrition therapy for a variety of medical conditions.

Your consultation is private and individual counseling is provided.
