How it works

Three steps to your first plan.

1

Check your coverage

Tell us your insurance and what you're training for. If we accept your insurance, your first session is FREE no matter what! Then we verify your coverage for follow-up sessions.

2

Match with the right Registered Dietitian

We match you with a sports dietitian whose endurance background fits your sport. Your initial virtual session is 60 to 90 minutes and personalized to your training season.

3

Fuel your training

Custom fueling plan, between-session messaging, follow-ups every 2 to 4 weeks. Stay consistent through training, race day, and the off-season.

FAQ

Coverage, sessions, and everything else

Will my insurance cover nutrition counseling?

If you're in-network with Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, or UnitedHealthcare, almost certainly yes. Most in-network clients pay $0 out-of-pocket, and many plans cover unlimited sessions. We verify your specific plan before your first session.

What if you don't take my insurance?

We accept FSA/HSA payments for clients with limited coverage. For self-pay, sessions are $150 (initial) and $125 (follow-up).

How long is each session?

Initial appointments are typically 60 to 90 minutes. Follow-ups are 45 to 60 minutes. You and your dietitian decide the right cadence based on your training calendar.

Are you really licensed in every state?

49 of them, plus DC. We're licensed everywhere except Alaska, and telehealth lets you meet your dietitian from anywhere in those locations.

I'm a recreational runner. Is this for me?

Yes. About half our roster is active adults: runners, cyclists, triathletes, weekend warriors, parents who train before work. The reason we mention elite-level experience is that the same fueling principles transfer; they're just rarely accessible outside that world.

What about REDs or under-fueling?

Several of our dietitians are trained to support endurance athletes through REDs (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) and eating disorder recovery, working alongside your treatment team if needed. We're a complement to clinical treatment, not a replacement for it.
