Alix Turoff Nutrition Podcast

I BELIEVE THAT UNSUSTAINABLE DIETS AND EXERCISE REGIMENS ARE WHAT KEEP US STUCK IN THE WEIGHT LOSS AND WEIGHT GAIN CYCLE. I get you… I was you! I’ve lost weight, I’ve gained weight, I’ve felt fat, I’ve felt too skinny and everywhere in between. My eating habits and body image were disordered AF thanks to really stupid nutrition information and crazy diets. Through science-based nutrition education and mindful eating, I have found the key to having it all. It’s possible to eat delicious food, drink cocktails, exercise because you enjoy it and live in a body that you’re proud of. And I want to teach you how!

Lisa is the author of "The Core 3 Healthy Eating Plan," and is also the founder and CEO of The NY Nutrition Group: a team (15 +) of experienced dietitians that specialize in a variety of conditions and modalities. Since opening her private practice in 2013, Lisa has built up credibility in the media and established an immense expertise in diets, weight management, hormonal influence on health, improving relationship with food and understanding the nuances of nutrition. She wrote her book "The Core 3 Healthy Eating Plan," to help people learn how to find their healthiest, happiest weight while improving relationship with food.

The Core 3 restores your confidence and trust in food while encouraging autonomy with a personalized, structured, dietitian-designed and science-backed plan. Lisa has a profound understanding of what helps and what hurts when it comes to nutrition therapy. She believes in personalization and preaches that there is no one-size-fits-all diet for feeling your best.
