Anyone in California can call themselves a nutritionist. Dietitian, in contrast, is a protected title – meaning only those who meet the criteria can use it. RDNs are the most qualified nutrition providers out there, having over 1,000 hours of training experience and being the only providers qualified to offer medical nutrition therapy (MNT).
The world of nutrition is broad – someone treating diabetes will eat differently from someone with high cholesterol. With Fay, you can easily find an RD specializing in your area of concern to provide research-backed strategies based on the latest research to achieve optimal outcomes.
Finding time to meet with another provider can be tough. Virtual dietitian sessions make this easy and open you up not just to dietitians in LA, but in the greater U.S., giving you access to a wider range of expert nutritionists with comprehensive specialties.
When you put your care in the hands of a healthcare provider, you want to trust their approach. Fay’s Los Angeles RDNs follow the latest research and employ evidence-based practices to help with weight loss, your relationship with food, healing health conditions, and more.
Fay’s dietitians in LA are well-acquainted with the unique culture in this sprawling city. You’re often torn between a sedentary lifestyle stuck in your car and keeping up with friends going up Runyon Canyon on a Saturday morning. Your RD will be able to make a personalized plan based on your ideal lifestyle that accounts for all of this.
How many hours should I sleep each night? How much should I be working out? Should I be prioritizing strength or cardio? Your RD can help you answer these questions and much more to find a custom regimen that works with your schedule and helps meet your goals.
With so many different weight loss trends and treatments, it can feel impossible to know which approach is right for you. Put your care in the hands of a qualified dietitian for reassurance that you’re getting evidence-based advice tailored to your individual goals.
With Fay, you can pay as little as $0 per session. How? Because Fay takes advantage of the little-used nutrition benefits that come with most health insurance to cover your dietitian services. All you have to do is input your plan information and pick from the providers who take your insurance. Fay bills directly to insurance so you don’t have to worry.
Over one-third of Black adults in Los Angeles County report being diagnosed with hypertension and 13.5% of Latinx adults are living with diabetes. Over 25% of all adults in LA County are nutritionally insecure. The wealth disparity and car-dependent nature of LA can make accessing both healthy food and quality healthcare difficult.
Angelenos love their food, from the latest restaurant opening to fan favorites like burritos and cheeseburgers. On the other hand, the city can feel health-obsessed with plenty of specialty diet restaurants and shops like Erewhon popping up everywhere. With so many choices, finding balance and sticking to your health goals can be difficult while still enjoying all that the city has to offer.
It’s no secret that LA can be health-obsessed to a fault. While striving for health is always a good thing, it can be problematic when it becomes obsessive. Find balance amongst this wellness culture by working with an RD to prioritize the foods and activities that you love and letting go of the must-try mentality.
Fay connects people with Registered Dietitian Nutritionists to receive personalized nutrition counseling, covered by insurance. We accept over 700+ insurance plans so most patients will pay between $0 - $12 per session. Fay boasts the largest network of dietitians in the country with over 1,000, giving access to life-changing nutrition care to millions.
Fay has dietitians that specialize in eating disorders, gestational diabetes, bariatric, cardiovascular, weight management, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, stage 1 through 4 chronic kidney disease, oncology, GI, and many others. All dietitians on Fay are board-certified, licensed healthcare providers.
A registered dietitian (RD) or registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) is a credentialed practitioner who has, at least, completed a bachelor’s degree, a supervised practice program, the Commission on Dietetic Registration’s exam, and a state license. Both RD and RDN are protected titles, meaning only those who have completed the qualifications can use the titles. Nutritionist, however, is not a protected title, and anyone can claim it. There is no standardized training for nutritionists, and many nutritionist training programs are unregulated. Registered dietitians can provide preventative care and treat conditions like diabetes, eating disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, and many other medical conditions with medical nutrition therapy.
Most people get their sessions for free when they book with Fay. Without coverage, you could pay closer to $150 per session. To get more confidence about your coverage, you can check your price using our pricing tool.
