Our expert registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) translate evidence-based nutrition into everyday solutions for healthy living. Our RDNs have degrees in dietetics from well-respected, accredited universities. They are licensed by the State of Hawaii and certified by the Commission on Dietetic Registration to practice medical nutrition therapy.
