This legislation for #MNT has the potential to be a game-changer for millions of Americans. Diet-related illness is fueling $4T in healthcare costs…and Medicare reimbursement sets the pace for other insurers to follow. PS. I ran a nutrition private-practice in greater Boston for 13 years… while we still helped hundreds of clients a year, only 3 diagnosis were covered by most insurance companies. The concept of “food as medicine” is gaining traction—#RDN are the qualified credentialed pros to advice on food to optimize nutrition, health & wellness. Tell your legislators!

In this guide, you will learn why and will be provided with steps on how to incorporate nutrition into the treatments that you provide to your patients. #nutritionandpt

A new systematic review is in press at AJCN showing the effectiveness of MNT by RDNs on health outcomes in adult patients with prediabetes. This in combination with the recent systematic reviews on dyslipidemia and adult weight management demonstrate the impact of personalized nutrition interventions by RDNs on key outcomes. #dietitians #research #eatrightpro

Metanalysis of Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) for adults with prediabetes by RDNs on #cardiometabolic outcomes. Personalized nutrition by RDNs is and will continue to be key to improving health outcomes. I would like to see the healthcare costs and health equity outcomes. No doubt it will be a big impact! #RDN #RD #healthequity #prediabetes #healthcarecosts #valuebasedhealthcare

Check out our new systematic review focused on effectiveness of MNT by RDNs in adults with prediabetes….

Having reasonable #weightloss expectations is important before starting a #semaglutide like #Ozempic. Research studies show that about 11% is a reasonable amount of weight loss to expect after being on the medication for 6 months. The article I wrote below provides information on the weight loss you can expect to see over time while taking the medication. *Note that research is still underway to gain more information on weight loss results. Of course, factors like your #diet and #exercise routine will also impact your weight loss. My best advice is to work with a #registereddietitian to avoid nutritional deficiencies and maximize your results. __________________________________________________________________ I'm a freelance nutrition writer, reach out if you'd like to work together. https://lnkd.in/gtpYRTf2

Who you PARTNER with while on these medications DOES matter!!!! We have the #1 companion program to combine with Ozempic, Wegovy, and other Semaglutide containing GLP1 medications for the absolute BEST results, and more importantly… LONG TERM SUCCESS!!!! Were you aware that 30-50% of the weight you lose on these medications could be MUSCLE, without the proper companion nutrition program? 😳 Were you aware that a study in the Journal of Pharmacology and Therapeutics found that a majority of people who take semaglutide gain MOST of the weight back within a year of stopping the medication? You NEED a companion nutrition and lifestyle intervention program that will help you learn healthy habits and behaviors that will enable you to keep the weight you lost for life! You NEED a coach to guide you! You NEED a supportive community! And you NEED a nutrition program that will provide essential nutrients AND PROVIDE MUSCLE PROTECTION! I'm guessing you want to have the fastest weight loss results AND you don't want to gain that weight back, right? If you are ON or considering GLP1 medications for weight loss, please TEXT to 818-522-8089 or DM me RIGHT NOW!!! By themselves, these drugs are NOT the quick fix you may think they are. Let’s have a conversation!

You can't expect everything from one medical provider...unless your provider practices the science and art of Functional Nutrition. Functional Nutrition aims to provide a more complete model of care. As Functional Nutrition Counselors, we do this by working in a therapeutic partnership. This particular approach to partnership focuses on empowering the patient with support and education while filling critical gaps in time and inquiry for the physician. What healthcare gaps do you fill or hope to fill in your practice?

Endometriosis is a chronic, often painful condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterine cavity. This misplaced tissue can cause inflammation, pain, and in some cases, fertility issues. Symptoms may vary but often include pelvic pain, menstrual irregularities, and fatigue. As a nutritional therapist, I can support individuals with endometriosis by developing personalised nutrition plans aimed at reducing inflammation, managing pain, and improving overall well-being. By focusing on anti-inflammatory foods, optimizing nutrient intake, and addressing any underlying dietary deficiencies, we can work together to alleviate symptoms and enhance your quality of life. Through dietary adjustments, supplementation, and lifestyle changes, I am here to guide you on a path to better health and symptom management. https://lnkd.in/eFt8shyV
