About Prudent Plates
At Prudent Plates, we believe that optimal nutrition is the foundation of a vibrant, healthy life. Founded in 2018 by certified nutritionist Dr. Sarah Mitchell, our practice has grown from a single consultation room to a comprehensive nutrition consulting service that has transformed the lives of over 2,500 clients across the Chicago metropolitan area.
Our mission extends beyond simple meal planning. We're dedicated to creating sustainable, science-based nutritional strategies that align with your unique lifestyle, health goals, and dietary preferences. Whether you're managing a chronic condition, seeking to optimize athletic performance, or simply wanting to develop healthier eating habits, our team of registered dietitians and nutrition specialists provides personalized guidance every step of the way.
What sets Prudent Plates apart is our holistic approach to nutrition counseling. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions or restrictive fad diets. Instead, we focus on evidence-based nutritional science, behavioral psychology, and practical meal planning strategies that fit seamlessly into your daily routine. Our comprehensive assessments consider your medical history, food preferences, cooking skills, budget constraints, and lifestyle factors to create truly personalized nutrition plans.
Our state-of-the-art facility features individual consultation rooms, a demonstration kitchen for hands-on cooking classes, and a resource library stocked with the latest nutrition research and meal planning tools. We maintain partnerships with local organic farms and specialty food retailers to ensure our clients have access to the highest quality ingredients and products that support their nutritional goals.
