Cynthia Endrizal

About Cynthia

Practicing in Hawai'i for over 25 years in nutrition taught me that food is never just fuel, it carries culture, comfort, and story. I bring that perspective to every patient visit, shaped by my experience in clinical, community, and academic research settings. As an RDN with an MPH and a PhD in Clinical Research and as a Fellow of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, I blend science with real life experiences and stories. When I’m not seeing patients or playing with my dogs, you’ll find me on a hike, practicing yoga, cooking, camping or skiing in the Tetons.

Approach to care

Knowledge guides the steps we choose, and empathy guides how we choose them. I practice through a Health At Every Size lens, focusing on behaviors, not weight, and I aim for sustainable changes that fit your life. We’ll work together to translate nutrition research into clear, practical strategies you can use day to day. I listen without judgment, teach with clarity, and then, together, we set accountable, manageable action steps so progress feels real and lasting, addressing the whole person.

Your first session with Cynthia

Plan on a thoughtful, low-pressure conversation where we’ll review your medical history and look over any lab work or biometrics you’ve shared. I’ll spend time exploring your relationship with food, what’s been working, and what feels hard. Together we’ll establish short-term goals and create a practical meal plan that fits your routine. You don’t need to have it all figured out, just bring honesty and curiosity, and we’ll build a sustainable path forward together.
