Anna Duke

About Anna

Food and movement have always felt like conversation partners in my life, and that curiosity led me into nutrition. As an Registered Dietitian with a Masters in Nutrition from Appalachian State University and three years working across private practice, community health, and sports nutrition, I bring both science and real-world experience to our work together. I live in Raleigh NC, and when I’m not meeting with clients you might find me running, CrossFitting, baking, or teaching myself front-end web design. I take a collaborative approach and I care about practical, sustainable solutions that respect your culture, budget, family life, and goals.

Approach to care

Evidence guides the plans we build, compassion shapes how we get there. I practice with a weight-neutral, Health At Every Size lens, so our focus stays on behaviors, health markers, and quality of life rather than a number on the scale. We’ll use research-backed strategies and clear, actionable steps so progress is measurable and sustainable. Expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where I teach you the why behind recommendations, support you through setbacks, and adjust plans to fit your real life.

Your first session with Anna

The first visit is a relaxed, judgment-free conversation where we’ll take a deep dive into your relationship with food and review your medical history, routines, and barriers. Come as you are, you don’t need to have everything figured out. Together we’ll identify a couple of short-term, practical goals and outline the next steps you feel ready to try. My aim is to leave you with clarity, a manageable plan, and confidence that we’ll adapt as you go.
