Manage, or Reverse, Diabetes, Fatty Liver, and Endocrine Diseases with the Support of a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist on Long Island

Taking charge of your health begins here. Nutrition is the cornerstone of treatment for diabetes (including pre-diabetes), hypoglycemia, fatty liver, and metabolic syndrome. 

Whether you have been recently diagnosed, have lived with your condition for many years, or are a caregiver, understanding science-based medical nutrition therapy and developing a personalized program are essential tools for disease prevention and health promotion. These tools empower you to make changes that improve outcomes.

WHAT DOES A DIABETES NUTRITIONIST DO?

Diabetes and endocrine diseases can be effectively managed with medical nutrition therapy. As a dietitian with thirty years of experience working with endocrine diseases, Nancy can provide a comprehensive nutrition program that includes:

  1. Assessment: Assess your dietary habits, medical history, blood sugar levels, lab results, weight, and lifestyle.
  2. Goal Setting: Set personalized nutrition goals, including normalizing blood sugar and lab values, preventing progression and complications, attaining and maintaining optimal weight, and promoting overall health.
  3. Meal Planning: Develop a personalized meal plan that includes a balance of healthful macronutrients that are enjoyable and satiating.
  4. Nutrition Education: Provide evidence-based education on medical nutrition therapy and diabetes management. You need to understand your medical conditions and the appropriate nutrition program for you, considering your lifestyle, food preferences, and health requirements.
  5. Recent Research Data: Stay current with relevant research on the relationship between endocrine disorders and chrononutrition (biological clock/circadian rhythm) and the microbiome.
  6. Ongoing Support: Provide monitoring, evaluation, and continuing guidance to navigate dietary challenges and empower you to make the best food choices for your unique needs.
  7. Collaboration: Collaborate with your healthcare teams to ensure coordinated integrative care.

WHAT IS THE NUTRITION PLAN FOR YOUR ENDOCRINE DISEASE?

There is no one-size-fits-all plan. By working with a dietitian, you can receive evidence-based nutrition counseling to optimize your health and promote wellness. Research shows that maintaining a healthy diet significantly reduces the risk of complications and symptoms associated with conditions like diabetes, fatty liver, cardiometabolic disease, and pancreatic disease. A nutrition program can make a significant difference, as sustainable lifestyle changes can delay, reverse, or even prevent serious health problems. Improve your health status and implement a personalized food plan for the following endocrine issues:

  • Diabetes Mellitus
  • Pre-diabetes
  • Hypoglycemia
  • Fatty liver
  • Thyroid Disease
  • Pancreatic Disease

Nancy, a NYS Certified Dietitian-Nutritionist and Registered Dietitian, works closely with patients and their physicians to develop a healthy sustainable nutrition program to manage endocrine diseases. Consultations include dietary evaluation, nutrition education, behavior modification and an individualized food plan. Dietary recommendations include specific foods and patterns of food choices with consideration for each person’s lifestyle and food preferences as well as specific health related needs. With over 30 years of experience, Nancy offers online nutrition therapy to patients across New York.
