Culina Health Team and Services

Changing lives through better nutrition, one session at a time.

Food as sustenance, connection, and comfort unites all of us across cultures and classes. Every time we prepare a meal, we are making a small decision based on what we crave, what we have handy, and what will fill us up. As dietitians, we know that all of these small food decisions can add up to have a big impact on our short and long term health; yet very few outside of the dietetic profession are given access to comprehensive, science-based education about our food and the nutrition it contains.

Only 0.2% of the US population have ever seen a registered dietitian, yet millions of Americans live with chronic health conditions linked to metabolic dysfunction, which can be greatly improved with better nutrition. Many people don’t know they can afford to see a registered dietitian, or they think that dietitians won’t understand their cultural backgrounds, food preferences, and lifestyle habits, and they will be forced to give up foods they like in order to be healthy.

At Culina Health, we believe that everyone deserves and can afford quality nutrition care from a credentialed expert. We’re on a mission to make clinical nutrition accessible and sustainable for all, so that nobody has to rely solely on search engines or wellness influencers for important information about their health.

We pair patients with registered dietitians for personalized, one-on-one virtual nutrition care that is science-based, inclusive, and culturally competent. We offer non-judgmental, sustainable, and multilingual support in all specialities and we honor all patient backgrounds.

Culina Health is proud to be clinician, women, and BIPOC owned.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Culina Health?

Culina Health is a group of experienced registered dietitians on a mission to make quality nutrition care accessible to everyone regardless of socioeconomic background, race, age, or gender. Our diverse group of dietitians speak eight languages and provide empathetic and culturally-competent care nationwide via telehealth. Most of our patients receive insurance coverage, and we also offer affordable self-pay options. Get started 

We offer one-on-one and group virtual nutrition counseling services to patients for a variety of health concerns, from navigating nutrition misinformation and improving relationship with food, to nutrition care for chronic diseases, comorbidities, and complex health conditions. We specialize in sustainable weight loss nutrition, gastrointestinal and digestive health, heart and cardiovascular health, diabetes and prediabetes, hormone health, general healthy eating and wellness, among other areas of expertise.

What services does Culina Health offer?

What populations does Culina Health work with?

We work with all populations! Our patients span all ages, races, ethnicities, and gender and sexual identities. The majority of our patients are adults, and we also have dietitians who specialize in working with children and teens. We believe that everyone should have access to clinically excellent, culturally affirming nutrition care.

What is a registered dietitian nutritionist? Are they the same as nutritionists?

Registered dietitians (RDs) or registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) are nationally-recognized food and nutrition healthcare professionals who are uniquely qualified to provide medical nutrition therapy (MNT). RDs complete extensive nutrition education and 1,000+ hours of clinical training. They must pass national board exams for licensure, and stay up-to-date on current evidence-based guidelines with mandatory continuing education credits.

RDs receive an NPI number (National Provider Identifier Number), which authorizes them to bill insurance for nutrition care. RDs work in both inpatient and outpatient clinical settings, including hospitals, alongside physicians and other healthcare providers. There is no comparable national standard of education, training, or licensure for nutritionists, who do not offer insurance coverage for their services.

Are my visits covered by insurance?

Most likely! If you have a commercial insurance plan from a major provider, chances are you have some coverage for registered dietitian visits. 88% of our patients receive insurance coverage. When you book your first session with Culina Health, we will verify your insurance coverage for free.

How do I make an appointment with a registered dietitian? How many appointments will I need?

You can schedule your first session on our website. We will ask you some questions to learn more about your needs, and then match you with a registered dietitian who specializes in your health condition(s), meets your preferences, and practices in your state. At your first session, you and your dietitian will decide how frequently you will meet, and whether you might benefit from any other support. The number of sessions needed to achieve and maintain lasting change varies greatly from person to person. Your dietitian will likely be able to best advise on a recommended duration of care after 1-2 appointments. 

How effective is it to work with a registered dietitian virtually?

It’s very effective! Your dietitian is equipped to engage in meaningful conversations as well as share key visuals and resources with you in session. In fact, many of our patients prefer meeting virtually as it allows more flexibility to select the time and location that is most comfortable for them. We have weekday, evening, and weekend availability so you can find the best time that works for your schedule.
