Ricci-Lee Hotz

About

I’m Ricci-Lee Hotz, MS, RDN, LD. I have been a private practice dietitian for over 6 years and my practice, A Taste of Health offers individualized Nutrition Counseling and Weight Management services for a wide range of clientele by a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist.

My nutrition philosophy is unique in that I focus on providing:

Evidence-based, individualized nutrition recommendations focusing on:

• • moderation
  • variety
  • and how to fit patients’ favorite foods into a healthy eating lifestyle

This can improve quality of life for many individuals who feel they must restrict certain foods to be healthy or lose weight.

In addition, I have a special passion for working with individuals with:

• Gastrointestinal Conditions and/or individuals who cannot tolerate all foods providing them advice on:
  • which foods to be eliminated
  • which foods can still be eaten
  • and necessary supplementation to ensure optimal nutrition status
• Eating Disorders (including anorexia, bulemia, binge eating disorder, and orthorexia) and body image difficulties in relation to nutrition and food choices
• Athletes and Dancers  in order to help them reach their maximum, well rounded athletic and performance potential.

When I am not working as a dietitian, I am also a professional competitive ballroom dancer and dance instructor where I love to combine my passion for both dance and nutrition.
