Offerings
Disease Management
I have 10+ years of experience counseling patients with all types of chronic disease states - diabetes, chronic kidney disease, cancer, cardiac disease, GI diseases and gout. Proper nutrition can help ameliorate disease states, reduce reliance on medications, or simply add to quality of life when managing a chronic disease. I will counsel you on the best food choices, suggest recipes and offer meal plans to help you comply with the dietary restrictions necessary to manage your chronic disease.
General Wellness
The saying goes “you are what you eat”. Wellness can reduce stress and help maintain overall health both of which add to quality of life and longevity. In addition to sleep and exercise, nutrition plays a central role in wellness. Let’s talk about how to improve your nutritional habits, so you can attain the highest level of general wellness you can.
Weight Loss
A healthy weight is of utmost importance to keep chronic disease at bay. Just losing a small percent of body weight has been shown to avoid some diseases and reduce reliance on medications associated with many disease states. Most people report that losing unwanted pounds positively affects how they feel, bolsters confidence, improves body image, and enhances activity level and social interactions. We will explore your eating habits and feelings about food to help you manage emotional eating. I will help you lose weight safely and teach you how to maintain your weight loss without feeling punished or deprived.
Meal Planning
It’s easy to cook a quick convenience meal or go out for fast-food when you are hungry and nothing else is easily available, but a little planning can prevent this. Meal planning can help you save time and money, eliminate waste, implement dietary changes, and add variety to your diet. Together we will develop a meal plan that suits your personal taste and needs.
Pantry Assessment
The typical American pantry stores prepackaged foods full of refined grains, salt, added sugars, or saturated fat. But, eating unhealthy prepackaged foods can cause health issues such as weight gain, high blood pressure, and heart disease. I will help you identify the unhealthy pantry items you may rely on and replace them with healthier substitutes, starting you on the road to better health.
Grocery Store Tour
Grocery shopping can be overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be! Together, we can stroll through your grocery store, aisle by aisle, while I answer your questions and provide shopping and meal planning tips. During our tour, I will show you new ingredient possibilities, how to read labels, how to select healthy on-the-go options, and how to make the best overall food choices.
