Nutrition Resources for Clinicians

Evidence-Based Nutrition is designed to be a tool for clinicians to prescribe to their patients.

Research shows that 78% of patients make dietary changes based on their doctor's recommendations. Unfortunately, 74% of doctors say they give nutrition advice less than once a month because of their lack of time or nutrition knowledge. That's where we come in. 

Evidence-Based Nutrition makes it easy for clinicians to offer meaningful, science-backed nutrition education and support—without adding extra strain to their schedules.

Help patients improve nutrition

  • Online courses for patients that teach the why, what, and how to of the Mediterranean diet, the leading evidence-based dietary pattern

  • 5-week Nutrition Challenge beginning and ending with biometric testing such as a lipid panel and fasting blood glucose / HbA1c, as directed by their physician

  • Online community for peer support and accountability

  • Practical tips for shopping, cooking, and eating out

  • Printable handouts and guides, including

    • Nutrition & Cholesterol

    • Mediterranean Diet Guide

    • Nutrition for Blood Sugar Control

    • Lowering Blood Pressure with Lifestyle

We are actively working to make the Evidence-Based Nutrition program eligible for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and, ultimately, insurance reimbursement, to reduce barriers and expand access for patients.

Doctor improves her nutrition and shares what she learned with patients

Dr. Cho was one of the first people to do the Thrive-in-5, which is the Nutrition Class and Nutrition Challenge by Evidence-Based Nutrition. She did the class for her own health, but this is already helping her patients.

“I thought I knew a lot about nutrition, so to learn that I was pre-diabetic, it kind of shocked me. I thought I was doing everything right. The class changed the way I think about food and it impacted the way I eat. Now I get a lot more specific with my patients on nutrition advice.”
Dr. Cho is a nephrologist at her local VA hospital.

Nutrition tools for doctors to give to patients

Our nutrition program teaches patients the fundamentals of a Mediterranean diet through accessible lessons, practical tips, and a supportive community. The heart of the program is the 5-week “Thrive-in-Five Challenge,” which offers structured lessons, activities, and support as patients implement the Mediterranean diet.

Patients who follow the diet and complete the program consistently see measurable improvements in key biometrics:
  • LDL cholesterol
  • Blood glucose
  • Blood pressure
  • Weight


This program allows you to provide evidence-based, structured nutrition educationwithout requiring more of your time—and empowers your patients to take charge of their health.
