Testimonials
My dietitian was a huge help in my transition to a college dining hall. I wish I had started working with Pesto Health sooner!
Robbie C, Pace UniversityFrequently asked questions
Why should I see a registered dieitian?
The foundation of good health is nutrition. Registered dietitians help you achieve and sustain your health and wellness goals. They build personalized care plans based on your cultural background, socioeconomic status, medications, lifestyle, and more.
What is the difference between a nutrionist and a dietitian?
Nutritionists don’t need credentials. Registered Dietitians (RDs, RDNs) do. RDs are credentialed professionals who have completed specific coursework and an internship in the field of nutrition. RDs are required to complete continuing education credits every year to maintain their credential.
How many appointments will I need?
Everyone is different! Depending on your diet, goals, and health issues, we'll tailor an individualized approach that may involve meeting with you weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly. This lets us help you in different eating situations throughout the year, like holidays, vacations, and parties. You and your dietitian will figure out the best plan for you.
How much is each appointment?
It depends on your insurance. We currently partner with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, Medicare, and United Healthcare. We also accept out of pocket payments per session, email us at support@pestohealth.com to learn more.
What is a registered dietitian?
A Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RD or RDN) is a food and nutrition expert who has completed a minimum of a bachelor’s degree, an ACEND-accredited supervised practice program, and a national examination administered by the Commission on Dietetic Registration.
