About Isaac

After going through and overcoming my own health struggles, including type 1 diabetes, fatigue, low thyroid, and food sensitivities, I went on to earn my MPH in Nutritional Sciences and become a Registered Dietitian. For the past nine years in my private practice in Chicago, I’ve helped thousands of people balance their blood sugar, regain energy, and lose weight while still enjoying carbs. Outside of work, I love playing pickleball, traveling, cooking, walking, and weight lifting.

Approach to care

My work is rooted in helping clients understand and address the deeper reasons behind their blood sugar and health challenges, rather than just chasing symptoms or numbers. I take a personalized, root-cause approach that looks at the full picture, including nutrition, lifestyle, stress, sleep, and daily habits, so recommendations actually fit you. I believe you deserve practical, sustainable support instead of extreme diets, hacks, tons of supplements or meds, or one-size-fits-all advice. My goal is to help you create lasting improvements in your blood sugar, energy, weight, and overall health while still enjoying carbs and way of life.

Your first session with Isaac

You can expect a warm, friendly, and thorough conversation where we get to know you better, review your health history, nutrition, routines, supplements, and medications, and clarify both your short- and long-term goals so we are both on the same page. From there, we’ll make sure our time together is as personalized and productive as possible so you can start making progress right away!
