Proper nutrition has the power to help control blood pressure, diabetes, and improve heart health while empowering the body’s immune system to help protect it from foreign invaders like colds, viruses, allergies, and even cancer. Our specialty is strengthening all the systems of the body through nourishing food, pleasurable movement, and healthier thoughts which lead to a positive self image and a stronger motivation to take better care of ourselves.

Most of all, you will have a ton of fun reaching your goals!
WARNING! NO BORING NUTRITIONISTS HERE!!

We look at the WHOLE person. We know that your body, your health, and your life are intricately connected. It’s important to take all factors into account when devising a customized nutrition plan for an individual. It is not about counting calories or using fat-free dressing folks, it’s about eating what you LOVE, and LOVING how you feel!
We often say, what you eat affects your entire life and your entire life affects what you eat!

There is no one right diet for everybody. It is our mission to provide you with individual dietary suggestions that are specific to your needs. One person’s food is another person’s poison.

Well we really aren’t that great at math so we don’t like to play the numbers game

Portion control is important of course, but the truth is, eating nourishing, delicious food MINDFULLY is the key to reaching any health goal. When you are eating healthfully and mindfully, the calories don’t become as fundamental. BECAUSE…. as the brilliant Geneen Roth said, “Compulsion and awareness cannot co-exist.” We pride ourselves on bringing our clients to a heightened state of awareness surrounding the choices and lifestyle factors that affect their food choices. The best part? Wait till you see the foods you can enjoy!

Well then you haven’t tried one of Abra’s recipes. Enough said!

It is extremely important that you implement all of your nutrition advisers suggestions. If you do, then you should see and feel results fairly quickly. Changing your diet will dramatically affect your mood, your skin, your sleep, your energy, and of course your waistline. You will get out of the program what you put into it. Karen and Abra will support you and encourage you but you must be willing to do the work.

Yes, yes, and yes! We know that you will receive the best results when you are fully set up to achieve success on your own. We pride ourselves on our “easy to implement” suggestions for all people. Abra was a healthy personal chef in NYC for many years, she has an immense database of easy and delicious recipes that she loves to share with Nutritious America clients.

We understand! Being realistic practitioners, we believe very strongly that health can fit into anyone’s life! Check out our signature “Work Junkies” program. It has been designed specifically with you in mind!
Rest assured, you can still enjoy your latte. Life’s too short..

This is a very common statement. Sometimes we have limiting beliefs that prevent us from taking action because knowing what to do and actually doing it are very different things. Working through those limiting beliefs will help get you out of that rut and GET MOVING! It’s time to put the rubber to the road and see how easy taking care of yourself can be. We are here to support you!

Yes, if you are in the New York Metro area or the greater Los Angeles area we can meet in person. If you live anywhere else in the country (or world) we can speak by phone or skype. We currently serve clients in 10 countries!

Simply book a Nutrition Breakthrough Session and you will be directed to an online scheduler. You may then choose any time slot that works for you. Your Nutritious America counselor will call or skype you at the scheduled time. If you have any questions or concerns about your session please send an email to: info@nutritiousamerica.com and someone will get right back to you.
It is really important that you schedule your session during a time that you will be focused solely on the session. Please refrain from emailing, facebook-stalking, tweeting, driving, eating, karate chopping……. during your session. Your full attention is required for best results.

Have you ever received good advice that you were unable to follow? Has your doctor ever recommended a lifestyle change that you found to be unsustainable? Have you ever wanted something in your life, but found you couldn’t achieve it alone?
You will be supported by a knowledgeable nutrition adviser who is there to provide ongoing support and guidance as you set goals and make sustainable changes that improve your health and happiness. As your “Health Coach”, we will listen carefully and help you to navigate the world of contradictory nutrition advice to determine what changes are necessary for you.

45 minutes of pure genius

For best results we recommend a minimum of 6 sessions or our 3 month jump-start program. This of course depends entirely on your specific and unique needs. You and your health coach can decide what is best for you.

Books on health and weight loss are amazing! We have tons and tons in our own library. What a book cannot offer is accountability, support, and individualized attention. The internet is a fabulous resource, but boy is it confusing. Most Americans are on a HIGH FACT DIET! It’s difficult to navigate all of the nutrition info out there and know what’s applicable to you. A personalized, customized nutrition program is leaps and bounds more effective than a book or internet search.

We do not take health insurance, but many health insurance plans offer a FSA or flexible spending account, if you are enrolled in an FSA then our services are most likely covered. (it depends on plan and limitations)
