With the help of a board certified specialist in sports dietetics (CSSD), athletes will gain knowledge of how diet impacts performance and training.   Being that every athlete is different, fueling and hydration plans need to be tailored as such.  Our dietitian will measure body composition as dietary modifications are made in order assess gains in muscle mass.  Through the use of metabolic testing, clients can be assured that calorie needs are met in order to meet weight/body composition goals while having enough energy to train.   In addition to sports specific meal plans, our dietitian works with special need athletes of all ages who have medical conditions, disordered eating, are injured or post surgery.  Having a sound nutrition plan in place will give you and your team the competitive edge it needs to come out on top.

Metabolic testing is a simple, ten-minute breathing test to analyze and determine exactly how much oxygen your body consumes.  These Target Caloric Zones provide the information needed to determine the maximum amount of food you can consume while still losing weight.  This allows for a healthy diet while understanding and working with your metabolism to burn off the food consumed on a daily basis.

Treatment for disordered eating involves a multi-disciplinary approach and working with a treatment team that includes nutrition intervention with a Registered Dietitian.  Our dietitian specializes in the treatment of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and eating disorders not otherwise specified.   The goals of nutrition therapy include weight restoration, regulating metabolic function, nutrition education and meal planning.  Using cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, food and body image related distortions are identified and restructured so that the process of healing can begin.

Medical Nutrition Therapy refers to the treatment and prevention of diseases that are typically treated with medication through the use of dietary intervention.  It is an essential component of comprehensive health care.  Through changing what types of foods and the portions consumed, patients are able to improve their lipid profiles, maintain a healthy blood sugar level, and manage food allergies and/or intolerances.  Only a Registered Dietitian is licensed to treat patients using nutrition intervention and evidence based research.
