Mania Fanaeian, RD

I discovered my love of nutrition when I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and was required to see a dietitian, which intrigued me into my first college course in nutrition and an immediate change of major pursued.

I have practiced as a dietitian for more than 10 years now. I currently work at Cedars Sinai and UCLA in Southern California focusing on critical care. Outside the hospital walls though, my passion is to empower individuals to improve their nutritional status and prevent or optimally manage chronic illnesses.

I am particularly passionate about managing prediabetes and diabetes which is why I pursued a diabetes management certificate (CDCES).

In my free time you can catch me hiking the beautiful Southern California trails with my teenage son, or enjoying the beach with friends.
