Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Registered Dietitian Nutritionist care with Dr. Anay Rodriguez:

What is the difference between a Registered Dietitian (RD) and a nutritionist?

A Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) is a credentialed healthcare professional who has completed rigorous academic and practical training, including supervised practice. Unlike "nutritionist," which is not a regulated term, an RDN provides evidence-based, reliable nutrition advice.

What can I expect during my first visit with Dr. Anay Rodriguez?

Your first visit with Dr. Rodriguez will be a comprehensive assessment, involving a detailed review of your health history, eating habits, lifestyle, and personal health goals. This is the first step in creating a realistic and sustainable personalized nutrition plan tailored to your unique needs.

What is Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT)?

Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is an evidence-based, therapeutic approach to managing medical conditions using a personalized diet plan. A registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) provides this formal process to help manage diseases such as kidney disease, diabetes, or heart disease. This service is often covered by insurance.

Do you work with patients who have eating disorders?

Yes, RDs are a crucial part of the eating disorder treatment team. Dr. Rodriguez works collaboratively with therapists and physicians to help patients heal their relationship with food, establish regular eating patterns, and achieve nutritional rehabilitation in a supportive, non-judgmental environment.

How can a dietitian help me manage my diabetes?

Dr. Anay Rodriguez can help you manage your diabetes by teaching you about carbohydrate counting, balancing meals to stabilize blood sugar, and making healthy food choices without sacrificing flavor. This empowers you to take control of your condition.

I'm an athlete. How can you help me with sports performance?

Dr. Anay Rodriguez can help athletes optimize performance by developing a personalized nutrition plan. This plan will fuel workouts, aid recovery, build muscle, and ensure proper hydration for peak athletic achievement.

I want to lose weight. Can you just give me a meal plan?

While sample meal plans can be helpful, a personalized approach to weight loss focuses on sustainable lifestyle changes, including understanding portion sizes and developing a healthier relationship with food. This process, rather than a quick fix, leads to long-term success.

I have chronic kidney disease. How important is my diet?

A specialized renal diet, guided by Dr. Anay Rodriguez, is crucial for managing chronic kidney disease. It's a primary treatment, not just supportive care, helping preserve kidney function and potentially delaying dialysis by controlling protein, sodium, and potassium levels.
