Edward Ruiz, RDN, CDCES, CDE, RD, CA | Dietitian

About Edward Ruiz

Hello, my name is Edward, and I am a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Dietetics and Clinical Nutrition Services from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. I am passionate about the impact food has on the body and the importance of creating a balanced approach to sustaining a healthy lifestyle. Everyone has a different view of how their diet works for them, and I tailor my appointments to each individual. Within the area of nutrition, I have a special passion for diabetes education, whether it involves nutrition, medication management, or diabetes prevention. As a dietitian, I can help with nutrition management related to kidneys, heart, cholesterol, GI, liver, preventive care, more delicate areas such as tube feedings, and if all you wish to work on is weight management. I work with you and your healthcare team to support your health goals! Reach out to me if you have any questions. Thank you, and feel free to call me Edward, Eddie, or Ed.
