How I Can Help You
Translating the science of nutrition into practical solutions for healthy living is my job as a registered dietitian. As past President of the New York State Dietetic Association and recipient of the 2006 Distinguished Dietitian Award, I can help you create and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Medical nutrition therapy helps you modify unhealthy behavioral patterns and change those habits that are working against you.
Our bodies respond to the nutrients we consume, the physical activities we participate in, the lifestyle we lead, and our hormonal status. I have advised many men and women how to modify these controllable risk factors to improve health throughout life – from childhood to late adulthood. I can also help with prenatal nutrition, vegetarian nutrition, and family meal planning
Dietetics professionals promote healthful eating habits, which include helping men and women gain access to a wide variety of foods, as well as increasing opportunities for increased physical activity. Knowing that nutrition can favorably influence health and decrease the risk of chronic diseases, dietetics professionals strongly support research, health promotion activities, health services, and advocacy efforts that will enable us to adopt desirable nutrition practices for optimal health.
