“My dream as both a mother and a registered dietitian nutritionist is for families to start small by cooking together one day a week and then adding another day. Pretty soon you’ll be planning your weekly menu together! I especially want kids to dabble in the kitchen to experiment with new foods and learn basic cooking skills.” – Vicki Shanta Retelny

Vicki Shanta Retelny is The Lifestyle Nutritionist. She is a Chicago-area nutrition professional, media and culinary consultant, and a mom of 2 school-aged children.

By 2020, the World Health Organization estimates that two-thirds of all diseases will be the result of lifestyle choices, such as overeating, inactivity and smoking. Nutrition is one of Healthy People 2020’s main Health Leading Indicators, which means what people eat is a public health priority and dietitians need to be at the forefront.

Vicki’s work with individuals, families and corporations focuses on cooking simple meals together and creating a community in the kitchen.
