Hiroyo Ito, RD

I am in love with food and nutrition. These are endlessly interesting for me. Food can be art, culture, & science. Nutrition and human metabolism are so full of miracles for me.Everyday, everyone, we consume food and nutrition regardless. Also, life! Your daily dietary practice closely and significantly affects your lifestyle. Many of us live in the environment of food desert, food insecurity, sedentary lifestyle, over-caloric consumption, and/or high-speed society. This is an ever going matrix of your thoughts, your food choice, and external environmental factors.Nutrition related chronic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, chronic kidney diseases & cardiovascular diseases are pandemic. We have complicated problems related to nutrition.This is my philosophy as a nutrition professional;"食" This is a word of food in Japanese. The meaning of this character is “diet” and “eating”. It literally describes that “the diet makes people better.” In fact, good meals make people smile and happy.I believe nutrition is a key skill to keep up your life to fulfill. Nutrition works to maintain your health as a foundation of your life.My life work is to support many of you to live better and be happier by practical nutrition approaches, including cooking techniques, shopping guidance, & condition specific nutrition counseling.I learned that nutrition works. Let me help you.
