Food is chemistry.
Nutrition is a science.
I strive to deliver real-life, food and nutrition information that helps people enjoy eating for better health – without confusion, fear or guilt.

Helping busy people understand food
I am a registered dietitian who helps busy people understand food and discover the nuance of nutrition and health. Eating doesn’t have to be complicated. Follow along with @chewthefacts to get your questions answered and create simple meals.
I believe there’s more than one way to build a healthy plate and a healthy lifestyle. My philosophy centers on debunking misinformation so you can enjoy food and maintain a positive relationship with food and your body.
Eating well most of the time allows for the occasional indulgence in a fun food or beverage, some of the time. Choosing a delicious and sensible diet, along with a fitness program that you enjoy and can sustain, will support your health through the lifecycle.

For the consumer
Blog Posts, Books, Cookbooks
Easy strategies for health, lifestyle tips, food trends, and simple recipes
Every week there is some new food myth to contend with. “Influencers” who offer nutrition advice often have no training in nutrition science nor medicine, adding to the confusion. Whether you see or hear it on television, radio, magazine covers or a social media feed, it can lead to confusion.
My blog posts and books offer trustworthy, evidence-based, easy to read information that can complement your health care measures to support long-term health.

Hi There!
I’m Rosanne
I’m glad you’re here!
Over my long career I’ve always positioned myself to connect with people and meet them where they are. Almost everyone has some misunderstanding of food – where it comes from, how it’s grown, and what they “should” be putting on their plate.
Well the truth is, there are no “shoulds” that will meet every person’s needs.
My goal is to deliver well-researched information and new perspectives to the public about diet and health. I can help your audience understand that good nutrition can be personalized but doesn’t have to be daunting.
