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!)

What our clients are saying…

I did the 3-month gut program with Erica, and it was incredible. We discovered I had SIBO, candida, and a parasite all in my gut. With natural, homeopathic supplements we made lots of progress. Erica listened to my goals, lifestyle habits which determined what she had me taking. I had severe bloating and was unable to go to the bathroom for days. I still have work to do and will continue treating these gut issues but all with the tools Erica gave me. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this program if you want to learn A LOT about your gut. You will LEARN. It’s not usually just one thing but many.

I’m so grateful for Rachel and her team. After suffering with digestive pain and struggles for at least 15 years and trying many different remedies, this solution is what finally led to answers, informed treatment, and lasting healing. They provided hope, genuine care, and responsive support throughout the journey. Highly recommend to anyone who is interested in healing their gut once and for all.
