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

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

A Registered Dietitian (RD or RDN) is a credentialed healthcare professional who has completed extensive education and supervised practice, providing evidence-based nutrition advice. The term "nutritionist" is not regulated, and therefore, does not ensure the same level of training and expertise. An RD provides reliable, science-backed nutrition guidance.

This initial step will help us create a realistic and sustainable personalized nutrition plan tailored to your unique needs.

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

While sample meal plans can be helpful, a personalized approach focusing on sustainable habits, portion control, and a healthy relationship with food is key to long-term weight loss success. We work with you to develop a plan that fits your lifestyle and needs. This involves more than just a meal plan; it's about creating lasting change.

A sports dietitian, like Dr. Tina RD, can help optimize athletic performance by developing a personalized nutrition plan. This plan can fuel workouts, aid in recovery, build muscle, and ensure proper hydration for peak athletic achievement.
