Elika Imandel, RD

Dietitian
WV
As a registered dietitian with a master's degree in Nutritional Science from California State University, Long Beach, and a bachelor's degree from California State University, Northridge, I am dedicated to helping individuals develop a healthy and sustainable relationship with food. My areas of expertise include the treatment of eating disorders, disordered eating, sports nutrition, and overall wellness. I take a holistic approach, considering the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of my clients. I understand the cultural, emotional, and spiritual importance of food in people's lives, and I incorporate that understanding into my practice. Instead of promoting deprivation, I offer personalized, evidence-based guidance to help people find balance and nourish their bodies in a way that feels sustainable and enjoyable. I reject diet culture and the restrictive, unhealthy practices it promotes and never advocate for the removal of any specific food groups. I believe that all foods can be part of a healthy diet when consumed in balance and moderation. Good health is essential for a happy and fulfilling life, and I recognize that what constitutes good health varies from person to person. People come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and it is neither practical nor realistic to try to conform to a single ideal body type. Factors such as genetics, sex, and age all influence our body type and shape. Instead of striving for an impossible standard, let’s work together to challenge distorted beliefs about food and develop sustainable, healthy habits that support overall well-being. If you are interested in learning more, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would be happy to discuss your specific needs and how I can help you achieve your health and wellness goals. Let’s connect and start the conversation today!
