Master of Science, MS Certified Diabetes Educator, CDE Registered Dietician, RD Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist, LDNA large portion of people obtain nutrition information from diet websites, magazines, social media and even well meaning friends and family which often report nutrition myths and misinformation. This inaccurate information can lead to fad dieting, significant weight fluctuations, poor relationships with food, worsened health problems and eating disorders. As an Registered Dietitian Lindsay uses evidenced based nutrition information and nutrition counseling with clients to help them improve health without causing harm.
Lindsay uses a non diet, HAES philosophy as a nutrition therapist and dietitian. She believes eating should not add additional stress to an often already stressful life. Food fuels our body and is also meant to be enjoyed. Lindsay believes we can enjoy all foods and achieve or maintain good health. Lindsay enjoys working with clients to find satisfaction with nutritious meals and food they enjoy and also helping to find balance with foods we eat simply for pleasure and fun.
We are often exposed to only one body type in popular culture. In real life however, bodies come in different shapes and sizes by nature. Science has shown us that behaviors have a greater influence on our health rather than achieving a specific weight. All bodies deserve dignity, respect and adequate nutrition. Lindsay works with individuals find adequate nutrition to support health and a positive relationship with food.
