Work with a New York City Nutritionist for Seniors

What does a geriatric dietitian do?

We practice evidence-based nutrition counseling for aging seniors, their families, and caregivers. The nutrition needs of humans are different during different stages of life. Aging adults do not have the same nutrition needs as someone in their 40s or 50s. As senior nutrition experts, we can give caregivers and aging adults the tools they need to improve their nutrition status. 

  • Identify nutrient deficiencies.  Though calorie needs (and often hunger) decrease for aging adults, nutrient needs remain the same, and some even increase. Likewise, our bodies don’t absorb nutrients the same as we age. 
  • Give easy snack and meal ideas. Meet your nutrition needs with nutrient-dense meal ideas.
  • Provide nutrition support for chronic illness. It’s not uncommon for seniors to have to learn to manage diabetes, high blood pressure, and other chronic illnesses. Receive nutrition counseling to manage new diagnoses.
  • Provide nutrition support after a hospitalization. Whether you’ve had to undergo surgery or have been hospitalized with an illness, getting back on track with a nutrition plan can make a big difference in your recovery.

In our practice, we support seniors with individualized nutrition counseling to promote quality of life and healthy aging, as well as work with patients who have been or are sick. Good nutrition and eating habits play a critical role in healthy aging and independence in later life. 

We look forward to working with you.

Testimonials

Loving my appointments with NY Nutrition Group. They take a wholistic approach to your nutrition and health, instead of just telling you what food groups to put on your plate or to simply cut out entire foods. I better understand how food works in my body in coordination with activity, sleep, mental health and overall health and wellness. I’m so glad I found them. They are helping me heal and improve my relationship with food and my body

by – Liz Lane

Working with NY Nutrition Group was the best decision I ever made! Lisa Moskovitz is an expert in intuitive eating and eating disorders. She is truly the only person that has been able to help my eating disorder recovery. Lisa is very kind and knowledgeable! I highly recommend to anyone looking for support – Hope S.

  • I had the pleasure of working with Cassie Steinberg, Registered Dietitian over a period of 6 months. We met weekly to come up with personal health habits and fun meal ideas. What began as me wanting to lose some weight really ended up becoming a process of self-love and creating daily eating habits I could live with long-term. Cassie was creative and kind. She helped me in so many ways to accept the body I have and to nourish it daily. I highly recommend her as a Dietitian and body image guru

    by – Angie Goncalves

Have been working with Lisa for 9 months and am very pleased with the experience. I’ve seen progress toward my goals, but more importantly, the way that Lisa frames progress is holistic, balanced, and not overly obsessed with the scale. I’m grateful to have someone to share my stressors and disappointments through the process who has the knowledge and perspective to help assuage them. I’ve never once felt like I was being pushed into unsustainable habits or behaviors that are isolating. A great person to add to your care team if you want to build a healthy, realistic relationship with food and your body!

by – Angelica Richie

I have had the pleasure of working with Jeanne for a couple of months now and I’ve never felt better. Since I first started working with her she listened to all my goals and always gave me the best guidance and recommendations to meet my goals. I’ve noticed that I make wiser nutrition decisions since working with her and value the sessions we have

by – Maria Toro Franco

I’ve had the pleasure of working with two outstanding nutritionists. My former nutritionist left during COVID. Since then, I’ve been working with Julia DiPietrantonio. Julia is culturally competent, which is very important to me … If you’re looking to gain confidence not just a sense of control over your relationship with food, Julia is a great partner. I really appreciate NYNG, and I hope they continue to see cultural competency as a key pillar of their platform – Zahra Marie
