About the Dietitian

Leanna Tabatabaie (formerly Leanna Nastase) is a Registered Dietitian through the Commission on Dietetic Registration of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, and is a Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist in the State of Pennsylvania. She has over 10 years of experience in the nutrition field.

​

Leanna believes that food is a universal language spoken by us all.  It fuels our bodies, and should be enjoyed. A healthy relationship with food is crucial to our overall well-being.

​

That said, our fast-paced, information-overloaded culture is saturated with all sorts of nutrition information, and it can be difficult to know what is fact and what is fiction. While the internet is full of nutrition claims, many lack scientific support and are detrimental to establishing a lifetime of good health.

And besides, there is so much more to nutrition than whatever the latest fad being touted by celebrities and so-called “nutrition specialists.” Nutrition is about understanding how your body works and what it needs, making peace with food, and creating stress-free yet permanent habits that allow you be the healthiest you.

Choosing health does not have to be complicated. A healthy relationship with food does not involve joining diet groups, buying expensive products, or stressing about food 24/7.  Nutrition is not about depriving ourselves, and it is not extreme.

​

Leanna can help you achieve your goals.   Through individualized counseling, she helps clients to better visualize their daily food environment, and how it impacts their choices.  She will show you how to take the stress out of healthy eating, understand your body’s need for nutrition, and focus on enjoying your food.
