About Us

MV Nutrition Team

Our Mission

is to empower people with knowledge and confidence to improve their eating habits, achieve
their health goals, and prevent and treat chronic diseases.

We accomplish this by reaching out to people in need of nutrition education and by providing services using evidence-based and extensive validated knowledge of nutrition.

MV Nutrition is a team of expert Registered Dietitians that use the most accurate and sciene-based information about nutrition and weight loss.

Anyone can call himself or herself a nutritionist but RDs are the nutrition professionals with the right credentials. RDs are nutrition professionals licensed by the Commission on Dietetic Registration of the American Dietetic Association. They can legally practice medical nutrition therapy and are highly trained in multiple forms of nutrition counseling such as cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and dialectical behavioral therapy. RDs base all their nutrition work on sound science.

A good RD should have received a bachelor’s or advanced degree from an accredited college or university, should have completed an extensive internship program that includes supervised clinical experience and should have passed a national licensing exam.
