What is the nutrition team’s philosophy?

Allara’s RDs default to a health-first and weight-neutral approach. We are a blank slate, and will listen to what YOU feel needs to happen, to feel healthy.

Your cardiometabolic health, hormonal symptoms, labs, and how you feel each day are treated as your primary markers of health. Weight is an additional piece of data, amongst those things. The bottom line: if weight loss is one of your goals - we’ll work on it! But we won’t ever give you unsustainable weight loss recommendations, or ones that come at the cost of your health.

Please discuss with your dietitian how this perspective intersects with your beliefs and treatment targets, so we can adjust our suggestions and approach to fit the most important person in this collaborative relationship: you!
