Frequently Asked Questions

Give us a call at (267) 551-1213, send us an email at liv@livelynutrition.com or fill out our contact form and we will be in touch to schedule a free phone evaluation.

During this call, we’ll assess your situation, discuss your goals, determine if we’re a good match for counseling and answer any questions you may have about the process.

Our road to success will begin by helping define your health values and goals. From there, we will work together to identify any obstacles and develop a plan for a healthy, sustainable lifestyle.

During our first session, we’ll take some time to get to know you, your medical history and your current eating habits. At the end, we hope leave you with clear actionable steps to start accomplishing these goals.

I am happy to make house calls or meet somewhere in between for clients near Philadelphia, PA. For those unable to meet in person, a tele-medicine session via video chat is also an option.

Yes! I currently accept IBX, Aetna, United Healthcare and Cigna. Call your provider and see if you qualify for covered nutrition services – many do these days!

Appointments can be rescheduled or cancelled up to 24 hours before the scheduled start time with no penalties or fees. Appointments cancelled within 24 hours of start time will incur a $50 fee added to the next consultation.

Education and training! Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist if they have an interest in nutrition, food and health, but only a registered dietitian (RD) or registered dietitian-nutritionist (RDN) has the credentials to prove their expertise. In addition to holding a bachelor’s degree, an RD or RDN must fulfill an accredited nutrition curriculum, complete over 1,200 hours of supervised practice at a health care facility, and pass a rigorous registration exam.

Additionally, most insurances will only recommend and accept claims from an RD or RDN and not a nutritionist.

When I eat nutritious food, I feel good and I am stronger both mentally and physically, and I want other people to feel those good vibes…and what could be more rewarding than helping people feel good? I truly believe that a “diet” consists of the fresh, whole foods you eat everyday that make your mind and body feel lively.

That is where the concept of Lively Nutrition was born from — the definition of lively is “full of life and energy; active and outgoing”. That resonates with me in that a healthy lifestyle and good nutrition can increase one’s livelihood.

I wanted images that said “nutrition” without posting a picture of a glistening green apple or a cluster of carrots. One night I magically came across these whimsical characters and fell in love. Not only are they fruits and vegetables, but they are also exercising! What could be livelier? The woman who drew them is an illustrator and art teacher from Barcelona, Spain named Marta Prior.
