Nutrition at Stanford

Healthy food isn’t going to do any one any good if no one is eating it—it HAS to taste great. That’s one of my healthy eating mottos. I am Elaine Magee, MPH, RD, the Wellness & Performance Nutritionist for R&DE Stanford Dining. Read more about Elaine from the Stanford Report

As a nutrition expert/writer with 25 years of experience I’ve got a lot more mottos and healthy eating advise to share with you. I am passionate about helping people reach a higher level of health not just for a couple of weeks but for a lifetime.

You can find me through R&DE Stanford Dining a few different ways: Have a burning question? You can email me at: nutritionist@stanford.edu.

You can follow my “food for thought” blog (where I will be posting nutrition nuggets specifically designed with the Stanford student in mind) on the R&DE Stanford Dining Facebook and Twitter pages.

I am thrilled to be part of the R&DE Stanford Dining team and I hope to meet up with you in person or electronically real soon.

My background
I have been a nutrition expert/writer for WebMD.com for 7 years and for a decade I wrote the syndicated column, THE RECIPE DOCTOR, where I performed hundreds of recipe “makeovers.” I am also the author of 25 books on nutrition and healthy cooking, with my most recent books being FOOD SYNERGY and TELL ME WHAT TO EAT IF I SUFFER FROM HEART DISEASE. Several of my books have been translated into 10 languages and are being distributed around the world.

Over the years I have been a college nutrition instructor, I have appeared on various local and national television and radio shows, and contributed to national magazines (including Cooking Light and Dance Spirit Magazine.) I have also consulted to supermarket chains, websites, dance programs, and more. I have been a registered dietitian for 25 years and hold a bachelor’s in nutrition science and a master’s in public health nutrition.
