Benefits of Working with a Renal Nutritionist vs. Going It Alone 

Dealing with renal disease is a significant challenge – especially if you're going it alone. Without an expert to guide you, it's difficult to know how to structure your nutrition approach. Even if you know which nutrients your body needs more or less of, it's not easy to make and adhere to significant dietary changes. A renal dietitian can be a massive asset to your nutrition journey. Here are some of the benefits of working with a renal nutritionist rather than going it alone.

Decrease the Likelihood of Developing or Progressing Renal Disease

Skip the Tedious Research

Our renal nutritionists have experience working with the challenges related to renal issues. Rather than researching your nutritional needs by yourself – which can get tedious and difficult to understand – you can rely on an expert who already understands the complexities of kidney health. They can also help apply that knowledge to your food choices, meal planning, and fitness regimen.

Have an Accountability Partner

An image of an arrow icon
With a nutritionist as a partner in your health journey, you're more likely to reach your goals. Working with a professional gives you added accountability, boosting your motivation and discipline when changing habits and lifestyle choices. Your renal nutrition expert will tailor your eating plans to your specific health challenges, medical history, food preferences, and wellness goals.

Get Over the New York City Hurdles and Get Back to Health

As the fastest growing chronic disease, diabetes affects one in 12 adults in New York City. As a result of diabetes, many individuals develop renal issues that require a carefully controlled renal diet. Getting the proper nutrition can help prevent or slow the progression of diabetes and is essential for managing chronic kidney disease. However, even when you have the best intentions, sticking to a healthy diet can be very challenging, especially in a busy metropolis like New York City.

Limited Time

In a fast-paced place like New York, most residents have bustling schedules and juggle priorities such as careers, families, education, social lives, and other responsibilities. With the stress of balancing these demands, it can become challenging to find the time or muster the energy to cook a healthy meal, making it easy to resort to fast foods or convenience foods. Unfortunately, these high sodium menus can be particularly detrimental for people with pre-diabetes, diabetes, or renal issues.

Transportation

Despite New York City’s many transportation options, traffic is frequently congested. When it’s difficult to get across town, making a trip to a large grocery store with a good variety of food options can be challenging. New Yorkers sometimes settle for convenience store items or a quick bite at the diner around the corner, even if these aren’t the healthiest food choices.

How much does a renal nutritionist cost in New York City?

An image of an arrow icon

Full Transparency Pros and Cons

Although we firmly believe that Top Nutrition Coaching offers the best strategy for using nutrition to optimize your renal health, there are other options. Here are some of the pros and cons of alternative nutrition strategies you might want to consider.

Online Meal Plans

Pros: 

  • Some online meal plans may benefit renal diets, such as those with low-sodium recipes.

Cons: 

  • Many online meal plans focus on weight loss through caloric restriction, which is not a very healthy or sustainable approach. This approach may be especially unsuitable for individuals with health issues like chronic kidney disease or diabetes.
  • Consuming the correct balance of micronutrients like potassium and phosphorus is essential for a renal diet. Finding an online meal plan that focuses on precise nutrient levels may be challenging.  

In-Person Renal Nutritionists 

Pros:

  • Some health insurance providers may cover face-to-face meetings with an in-network renal nutritionist at a hospital or private practice. However, this is usually only if the sessions are medical nutrition therapy to treat a medical condition.

Cons:

  • You’ll only be able to meet with nutritionists who live and work in New York City rather than accessing expert nutrition counseling from some of the world’s leading renal dietitians.
  • Very few in-person nutritionists offer an out-of-hours messaging service, so you will only be able to discuss your progress and ask questions during appointments. 
  • You'll have to contend with NYC traffic and transportation issues to get to your in-person appointments rather than enjoying virtual nutrition counseling sessions from the comfort of home.

Online Nutrition Resources

Pros:

  • Some people may enjoy the challenge of becoming a self-taught expert on nutrition and renal health. 
  • Various universities and government agencies have helpful and informative websites that offer guidance on nutrition topics.

Cons:

  • You won't find information specifically tailored to your nutritional needs and goals as you would in nutrition counseling sessions.
  • You'll have to navigate various opinions and a range of conflicting information by going online, rather than relying on expert advice. 
  • When pressed for time, you won't have the opportunity to devote hours to reading about nutrition and kidney health.
