Ellen Cernich, RD

Hi! My name is Ellen and I am a RD and CDCES, practicing for 24 years. I graduated from Iowa State University with my BS in Nutrition and Dietetics and Ball State University with my MS in Nutrition and Dietetics.

​

Pursuing a career in dietetics started in high school as I was an avid athlete and knew nutrition played a vital role in performance. After grad school, I was lucky to start my career in pediatric diabetes and have branched to adult diabetes (Type 1 and 2), insulin pump and CGM therapy, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, intuitive eating, weight management, sports nutrition, PCOS, celiac, selective eating, and much more.

​

I love food and talking about food! I want to help you have a healthy relationship with food and your body. We know making change isn't easy and often takes a lot of motivation. I have an easy going personality but also want to challenge you into achieving the success you want.

​

In my spare time (does that exist?), I am running everywhere with my 2 kiddos and their sporting events. We love traveling, making new foods and trying new restaurants, and anything that can get us outdoors.

​

Let's have fun with helping you achieve your goals, approach fears and taking away any shame or guilt. Let's go! Can't wait to chat with you.
