With 40 years clinical experience, the spectrum of my professional nutrition services range from basic nutrition counseling/education for those who simply want to improve their diet & lifestyle, on up to therapeutic nutritional support for specific health conditions - everything from indigestion to cancer (see list of specialties below). A functional medicine nutrition approach seeks to identify & resolve the root cause. Professional nutrition services determine your personal health profile. One size does not fit all. Anyone can sell you vitamins, few can tell you precisely which nutrients best meet your actual, individual need.

Vegetarian Nutritionists and Dietitians
What is a vegetarian diet?
A vegetarian diet is one that does not involve the consumption of meat and seafood. As a result, most vegetarians get their dietary protein from a variety of plant-based sources, such as nuts, tofu, beans, seeds, and whole grains. Vegetarians may also consume non-meat animal protein sources, such as eggs, cheese, and milk. Some individuals follow a vegetarian diet for health-related reasons, while others will follow it for ethical or environmental reasons.
Is a vegetarian diet healthier than a standard diet?
Because many animal meats are high in calories and saturated fats, they can contribute to health concerns like high cholesterol and hypertension. This makes a vegetarian diet an appealing alternative, especially for those with chronic health conditions such as heart disease or obesity. A vegetarian diet, which focuses on plant-based foods, often leads to lower calorie consumption overall. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals who are overweight or at risk of becoming so. Additionally, a well-planned vegetarian diet can provide all the necessary nutrients, supporting overall health while helping manage weight and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
How do vegetarians get enough protein?
Vegetarians can easily consume enough protein with proper planning. Common vegetarian sources of protein include tofu, tempeh, nuts, beans, seeds, lentils, dairy products, eggs, and whole grains. People new to a vegetarian diet might find it helpful to track their protein intake initially to ensure they're getting enough. However, many vegetarians soon develop a routine where they regularly consume sufficient protein without needing to track it closely, given the current wide variety of plant-based protein options. Consulting a dietitian can also be beneficial, especially if meeting protein goals seems challenging with only plant-based sources.
When is it useful to go vegetarian?
Many people can benefit from a vegetarian diet, especially those looking to lower their risk of heart disease, diabetes, and some cancers. The health benefits of reducing or eliminating meat and increasing plant-based foods are well-documented, including improved cholesterol levels, better blood sugar control, and reduced inflammation. Nutrition professionals often stress that even cutting down on meat, without completely eliminating it, can still lead to significant health improvements. This makes a vegetarian or partially vegetarian diet an attractive option for those wanting to improve their overall health and reduce their risk of chronic conditions. Additionally, well-balanced plant-based diets are typically rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, which also support overall well-being and can additionally aid in weight loss or management.
