FAQs

The academic background, clinical expertise, and practical experience qualify registered dietitians to practice nutrition science. To be a registered dietitian, one must meet the following criteria:
  • Have a minimum of a Bachelor’s degree (typically in health or nutritional science) with course work approved by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (formerly the American Dietetic Association) Commission on Accreditation for Dietetics Education
  • Complete a 1200-hour internship which may include clinical, food service, community, and management rotations, and pass a national registration exam
  • Complete continuing education requirements every five years to maintain registration.
 
Simply put, anyone can call themselves a nutritionist; it's not a regulated credential. However, one must meet the criteria listed above to be a registered dietitian. The bottom line is if you are looking for a reliable source of nutrition information, make sure you consult with a registered dietitian.
Functional nutrition is an evidence-based approach to nutrition care that looks at each individual comprehensively to improve health and overall well-being. This type of nutrition therapy focuses on identifying the root causes of diseases rather than a prescription of nutrition protocols based on a diagnosis.

What our clients are saying…

The Nutrition Clinic was exactly what I was looking for to help me address some complicated health issues. I was dealing with parasites, SIBO, and incredibly underweight. 

I had no idea where to start to address all the health issues and weight loss. I also tend to be a workaholic and let my personal health go; so I knew I would need accountability to stick with any treatment plan.

Rachel was fantastic! Her approach was holistic and thorough. She put together a plan that was doable and broke things down into manageable steps. She was very supportive throughout the entire process.

I was so impressed with the results and am beyond thankful to be feeling better! This was the best investment I made in 2021 (and bonus points, now my partner who was at first skeptical wants to work with a nutritionist too!)

Taylor is truly gifted in reading her clients and listening to their needs. She has given me the resources I need to get back on track with eating in a way that my body responds beautifully to. She is extremely knowledgeable and easily answers all questions. I love that she has given me the tools to help balance my hormones through nutrition, and understands how to get me to my goals in a way that motivates me without me having to count or track anything. Thank you so much Taylor! 🙂
