John Kuziara, RD

John’s interest in nutrition began during his weight loss journey in 2011 as he struggled with obesity until the age of 20 years old. Struggling to break through plateaus, he realized he needed to start changing what he was eating to achieve the results he desired. After implementing what he had learned through nutrition education, he broke through his plateaus and lost a total of 121 lbs. John realized the power of nutrition and the healing effect it provided for the body. It was from this experience that he decided to dedicate his life to nutrition and become a Registered Dietitian (RD) so he may help educated others achieve a happier and healthier life.

He then completed his dietetic internship with a focus in clinical nutrition at The City University of New York, Lehman College in Bronx, NY.
