I really like our interaction, we have already met 3 times. Ms Schulman is very professional and thorough, with excellent bedside manner, as she is a great listener and really makes an effort to know and understand her patients lifestyles and health issues. It is a pleasure to meet with her every month and learn from her the importance of leading a healthy life by eating healthy and exercising regularly...

Accepting Many Insurance Plans Making Pediatric Nutrition Counseling Affordable

Because Allison's services can have far-reaching benefits that support your child's health for the rest of their life, most insurance plans help subscribers cover the cost of nutrition counseling. Let's find out how your insurance plan can help you budget for an optimized nutrition plan for your children.

Children of All Needs Can Benefit from Allison's Care

Ms. Shulmann's specialized training and diverse experience allow her to help children with virtually any need benefit from her nutrition counseling:

Children with Food Allergies

Allison earned the Certificate of Training in Pediatric Food Allergies from Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE).  With this professional certification, one is trained to educate parents about introducing food allergens to help reduce the risk of children developing food allergies.  Allison is also trained to help manage suspected or diagnosed allergies by recommending foods to eliminate.  A designed food plan along with nutritional supplements can keep your child satisfied, nourished, and healthy.

Children with Serious Medical Conditions

Children who visit our office and have serious medical conditions like diabetes, obesity, digestive disorders, and eating disorders require specialized counseling and customized nutritional plans to help them maintain or improve their health. In many cases, improved nutrition can help our pediatric patients manage these disorders and enjoy better health.

High School Athletes

Some athletes, particularly those in their teens, may need to gain or lose weight to qualify for certain matches or improve their ability to play sports. Our registered dietitian and nutritionist in New York can help teens make healthy choices so they can gain or lose weight in a safe manner.

Children with Weight Management Issues

Staying within the recommended healthy weight range can be a challenge for children, teens, and adults in New York and across the country. Allison can make over your pantry, take you shopping, and set you up with a cooking coach so you have healthy and delicious choices available for all meals and snacks.

Are Unhealthy Diets Common Among Kids?

Unfortunately, yes. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:

 

Foods packed with empty calories, added sugars, and solid fats make up 40% of a child
 

Better Diet, Better Health

A customized eating plan created by registered dietitian Allison Schulman can reduce the risk of your child developing serious health issues such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, dental cavities, and more.

Allison Schulman can adapt your child's diet to ensure they have the nutritional building blocks they need to develop both physically and mentally.

Additional Benefits of Nutrition Counseling

Prevent Medical Conditions

A healthy diet can contribute to the prevention of disorders like high blood pressure, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, osteoporosis, and iron deficiencies. Allison's goal is to help your child experience both the immediate and preventive benefits of an optimized diet.
 

Introduce New Foods
 

Picky eaters often don't get the nutrients they need and can be unwilling to try new foods based on the way the food looks, or past experiences with food. Allison can help you introduce your child to a variety of new foods by improving their presentation and making them taste more appetizing.
 

Learn to Cook
 

Even if you're an excellent chef, Allison can teach you how to hone your skills even further and get more creative in the kitchen. After creating a personalized nutrition plan for your child, she will make sure you have everything you need to carry it out.
 

Establishing a Positive Relationship with Food

Allison Schulman helps toddlers, children, and teens in the New York, NY, area establish a better relationship with and understanding of food so they can stick to her custom nutrition plans and change their eating habits for good. 

Patients Love Allison's Approach
