How Can A Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) Help?

RDN’s help patients understand how their nutrition and lifestyle can improve their health. We not only look at what you eat, but your relationship and access to food, how much and what kind of activity you get, stressors, sleep habits and other selfcare behaviors. Our goal is to help you see what’s in your control and create a plan to improve your health.
