Shelah Unruh

About Shelah

I am a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator with a strong belief in the power of food as medicine. I practice what I preach, living out the same principles I share with my clients, and strive to create a supportive, encouraging environment where lasting health changes feel achievable.

Approach to care

My approach is rooted in a “food first” philosophy—focusing on nourishing, whole foods as the foundation for health. I always take time to explain the “why” behind every recommendation so that my clients feel empowered, informed, and confident in their choices. My ultimate goal is to meet people where they are, no matter what stage of their journey they’re in, and to guide them toward their health goals with sustainable, personalized strategies.
