Benefits of Working with a Nutritionist vs. Going It Alone

Let's face it—dieting isn't easy, and most people need additional assistance to reach their health goals. Whether you're trying to lose weight, address chronic illness, or fuel for the next race, nutritional counseling can help you understand the best strategies for reaching your goals.

Evidence-Based Nutritional Information and Advice

An image of an arrow icon
Certified Registered Dietitians (RDs) or Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) undergo extensive training and education to receive their credentials. Unlike specialists without these credentials, RDs and RDNs are held accountable in front of a medical board and must possess the highest medical nutritional knowledge. When you work with an expert nutritionist, you receive the best nutritional counseling tailored to your eating habits and health and wellness goals. You can count on reliable support every step of your health journey with an expert matched for your goals.

Meaningful Support and Accountability

An image of an arrow icon
Diets often fail due to insufficient support, commitment, or nutritional or health plan compatibility. Everyone has unique health requirements and eating habits, and it's challenging to develop an effective strategy on your own. Nutritionists can help you realize the best methods to make healthy food choices and hold you accountable throughout the process. Nutritionists aren't there to count calories or tell you what foods to eat. They understand your lifestyle, preferences, and circumstances and act as your partner in your health journey.

Personalized Strategy for your Health and Fitness Goals

An image of an arrow icon
Instead of trying to learn what's best on your own, nutritionists develop comprehensive medical, nutritional, or health plans which suit your lifestyle and personal goals. These can adjust based on your preferences and what works for you, and you can always count on the best expertise for any challenge or health goal. Nutritionists want to help you succeed long-term and stick to your plan.

About Phoenix Specific Registered Dietitians

Arizona has fewer requirements to become a dietitian or nutritionist than other US states. However, Top Nutrition Coaching only offers highly-qualified dietitians and nutritionists exceeding Arizona certification standards. 

Becoming a Nutritionist in Phoenix, Arizona 

At a minimum, all candidates must possess an associate's degree or undergraduate certificate. Their education level must be appropriate to the type of service of medical practice they wish to offer to their clients. Some nutritionists in Arizona may have higher levels of education (such as a doctorate), but this isn't a requirement to be considered a nutritionist. 

Continuing Professional Education 

Registered dietitians in Arizona must keep up with the certification requirements and mandatory training required by their practice or level of service. Typically, this includes completing at least 30 hours of professional education every two years.

Get Over the Phoenix Hurdles and Get Back to Health 

Phoenix is a great city, but some residents don't have access to the best variety of nutritionists or fresh ingredients. The climate limits what local foods are available, and you may have to go out of your way to find wholesome ingredients–especially with food shortages. 

Hot and Dry Climate

Exercising and getting outside isn't as easy in Phoenix as in other cities with mild climates. Residents in Phoenix regularly experience 100-plus-degree days, making it challenging to get out and stay active. 

The desert-like environment can also limit the readily available local and healthy foods. You may have to pay extra or go out of your way to find fruits, vegetables, and healthy foods for your diet. 

Commuting and Accessibility

You'll likely need to commute to meet with a Phoenix nutritionist, which takes away appropriate time from other areas of your life, like family, work, and personal commitments. It's far easier to match with a nutrition expert through Top Nutrition Coaching and preserve your precious time for other parts of your life.

Full Transparency Pros and Cons 

There are several options available to help you improve your nutrition. Although we believe Top Nutrition Coaching offers the best-in-class nutrition therapy in Phoenix, you may want to explore other options. More than anything, we want you to find the best support for your needs. 

In-Person Nutritionists

Pros 

  • Your local primary care physician, hospital, or gym may be able to refer you to a local nutritionist in Phoenix. This may be convenient for some patients with existing connections. 
  • If you need any testing or physical screenings, you may want to meet face-to-face with your medical provider.

Cons 

  • You're limited to the selection of nutritionists based in the Phoenix area. You may get lucky and find a qualified and compatible expert, but options through online services or health marketplaces usually are more diverse and accessible for patients. 
  • Unless you find a nutritionist in your immediate area, you may have to commute to other parts of Phoenix, sit through traffic, deal with parking, and take time out of your day. 
  • You may not have immediate access to your local nutritionist and have to schedule an appointment to meet. With Top Nutrition Coaching, you can message your nutritionist when you need, even without an appointment. 

Health Insurance

Pros

  • Your insurance company can refer you to in-network dietitians, which may save you money. Every insurance plan differs, so you'll have to check with yours to see what services they cover, how to get a referral, and how much they'll pay for your nutrition counseling. 
  • Your health insurance plan may cover online or in-person nutritionists, so you may have access to a wider variety of experts beyond Phoenix. However, every insurance plan differs, so it's best to check with your plan. 

Cons

  • Insurance providers typically won't cover nearly as much (if anything) for out-of-network providers, and you're limited to the resources your insurance company has to offer. 
  • It's not a guarantee all insurance plans will cover nutrition counseling, so you may have to pay out-of-pocket regardless. 

Open Marketplaces

Pros

  • Open marketplaces connect you with various nutritionists and dietitians, so you may have better options beyond what's available in Phoenix. 
  • Some services offer risk-free trials or initial consultations to get a feel for the nutritionist's methodology and strategy before committing. 
  • You can vet professionals in an online marketplace and find one that works best for you. 
  • Getting in touch with your nutritionist with Top Nutrition Coaching is easy and accessible whenever you need it. 

Cons

  • Insurance may not cover open marketplace dietitians, so you may have to pay out-of-pocket. 
  • You may not get to meet with your dietitian in person if you connect via an online open marketplace. 

Diet Companies

Pros

  • Some diet companies offer their products in local grocery stores or supermarkets, making it more convenient to stock up. 
  • Diet companies usually have plenty of resources and guides to assist with your goals. 
  • If you buy in bulk or commit to a more extended subscription plan, you may qualify for a discount depending on the diet company. 

Cons

  • You may not receive the best individual diet plan because diet companies need to make their products for a large audience–not for each particular person. 
  • Diet companies may take shortcuts with ingredients, nutrition, and calories to mass-produce and make their plans convenient. 
  • You're limited to the diet company's options–not what foods you prefer or work best for your health. 

Online Meal Plans

Pros

  • Most online meal plans offer subscription models and scheduled deliveries, so you never run out of meals. 
  • You may have the option to select which meals you want to eat instead of receiving what the meal plan decides each delivery. 
  • You won't have to invest as much time in meal planning, grocery shopping, or food prep since it's delivered right to your door, and some meal plans just need to be reheated. 

Cons

  • Online meal plans can cost substantially more than buying ingredients and making the food yourself. 
  • You're limited to the options the meal plan has to offer, and some people may not like the food available. 
  • If you can't stay committed, meal plans will go to waste, and you'll need to buy more food. 

Online Nutrition 

Pros

  • Some online nutrition sources are free to access, and you can specifically research what you need. 
  • You can read about others with similar conditions to yours and their experience. 
  • Online nutrition programs often have mobile apps, websites, videos, and additional ways to engage with relevant content. 

Cons

  • You may not receive the most reliable or trustworthy information from open-access or community-based online nutrition platforms. 
  • You aren't guaranteed any support or accountability if you research online nutrition and develop a plan on your own.
