Medical Nutrition Therapy
Medical Nutrition Therapy, or MNT, is one of the primary services that we offer here at Rhode Island Nutrition Therapy. MNT is a therapeutic approach to treating medical conditions and their associated symptoms, via the use of a specifically tailored diet and lifestyle plan. The personalized plan is then monitored by a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, or RDN.
The goal of MNT is to help lower your risk of complications from conditions such as type 2 diabetes and to help you manage conditions such as high cholesterol. Healthy eating and lifestyle changes can help you manage many chronic conditions and lower your risk of developing others. Your dietitian will guide, educate, and support you every step of the way.
We accept many major plans, including BCBS, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna, Harvard Pilgrim, and Medicare.
