Managing diabetes can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate it alone. At No Diet Dietitian, we specialize in diabetic nutrition counseling, empowering you to balance your blood sugar and enhance your overall well-being without giving up the foods you love.

Whether you're newly diagnosed or seeking better management strategies, our certified diabetes nutritionists are here to guide you every step of the way.

What Is a Diabetes Dietitian & What Do They Do?

A diabetes dietitian, or diabetic nutritionist, is a trained specialist who helps individuals with diabetes navigate their dietary needs. Many of our team members hold the credential of Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES), meaning we’re equipped with extensive experience and knowledge in diabetes management. We offer personalized nutrition plans, education on blood sugar monitoring, and guidance on insulin and insulin pump management.

Our approach integrates practical advice and emotional support, helping you to not only manage your diabetes but also thrive with it. We focus on balanced, enjoyable eating that keeps your blood sugar levels stable so you can get back to your life!

Our Team of Diabetes Nutritionists Has Expertise in the Following:

Pre-Diabetes

Pre-diabetes means that your blood sugars are on the borderline of diabetes. If you've been diagnosed with pre-diabetes, now is the ideal time to make a change. Our team is dedicated to helping you implement strategies to reverse pre-diabetes and reclaim your health.

Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that stops the production of insulin in the body. Insulin is the key to our body’s natural ability to lower blood sugar. Without it, sugar will build up in the bloodstream. Managing type 1 diabetes involves navigating numerous daily challenges, and we understand this life-long disease can be overwhelming.

Our dietitians are here to provide ongoing support and help you integrate diabetes management into your life, so it’s no longer a burden but a part of your story.

Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes is a condition where the body isn’t using insulin properly or is not creating enough insulin to lower your blood sugar. Receiving a type 2 diabetes diagnosis can be scary, but with the right tools in your toolbox, it is manageable–and sometimes reversible! Our diabetes dietitians offer expert guidance to help you manage this condition and prevent future complications down the road.

Gestational Diabetes

Gestational diabetes can sometimes occur in pregnancy when the placenta produces hormones that cause insulin resistance, and therefore raises blood sugar levels. We know your body is already going through lots of changes in pregnancy and gestational diabetes probably wasn’t a part of the plan. We’re here to support you and help you maintain optimal blood sugar levels for a healthy pregnancy and baby.

Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA)

Similar to type 1 diabetes LADA is when the body stops producing insulin, but it happens over a longer period of time. LADA presents unique challenges, and with growing research about this disease it can still be confusing as to how to manage it. Our dietitians stay abreast of the latest studies and we’ll work with you to optimize your blood sugar levels and lifestyle.

How to Treat Diabetes with Nutrition?

Nutrition plays a crucial role in managing diabetes. Our customized nutrition plans address all aspects of diabetes management, including carbohydrate intake, meal timing, and dietary patterns. We'll help you navigate the complexities of nutrition and teach you how to build habits that support your body and better blood sugars, while still allowing you to have your favorite foods.

Nutrition isn’t the only topic we’ll discuss. Physical activity, stress, sleep, and hydration are important factors that can make a difference in managing your diabetes.

What Diet Is Best for Diabetes?

Our "nutrition by addition" approach emphasizes foods that benefit both your nutrition and blood sugar levels. We recommend:

Fiber-rich Carbohydrates: Whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes.
Lean Proteins: Meat, fish, poultry, tofu, and edamame.
Healthy Fats: Avocado, nuts and seeds, olive oil, and avocado oil.

These dietary choices help maintain stable blood glucose levels while supporting overall health.

What Foods Should Diabetics Avoid?

This is going to be the shortest list of foods you can’t have…are you ready? There’s nothing you can’t have. Even as someone living with diabetes, we firmly believe all foods fit–even cookies, even ice cream and pizza. We want to come alongside you and help you enjoy your favorite foods while still managing your diabetes.
