Fuel to Move Nutrition and Fitness

Reyana Ewing, MPH, RD, CLE is a registered dietitian, wife, mother, and athlete who is passionate about nutrition and helping others achieve their goals.  Growing up as a top tennis player in South Africa and playing Division I tennis in the early 90s, she understands the nutritional, mental and physical challenges that face athletes.  

Reyana received her undergraduate degree in Nutrition at Georgia State University where she was All-Conference champion three consecutive years and her Masters degree in Public health from UCLA.  She is also a Certified Lactation Educator.  

Running came later in 2002 as a way to lose weight after having her second daughter.  With running and healthy balanced eating she was able to lose 50 pounds and keep it off eversince.

Her philosophy about nutrition is moderation and balance.  Healthy eating is a daily activity.  And so is exercise.

What is a Registered Dietitian?

Registered Dietitians (RD): Proven Professional Expertise and Excellence
Registered Dietitians have completed academic and experience requirements established by the Commission on Dietetic Registration, ADA's credentialing agency, including a minimum of a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university and an accredited pre-professional experience program. RDs must successfully complete a rigorous professional level exam and must maintain ongoing continuing education to maintain their credential. Some RDs hold advanced degrees and additional certifications in specialized areas of practice. (from the American Dietetic Association website)
