The end of 2026 is approaching, and now is a great time to check in on your nutrition counseling benefits!

Did you know that many insurance plans offer coverage for nutrition counseling, sometimes at little to no out of pocket cost?

If you've been thinking about getting started with a registered dietitian, or you've been meaning to schedule your next follow up, don't let your remaining benefits go unused!

Many insurance plans reset their benefits on January 1, which means now is a great time to:

✨ Check your remaining nutrition counseling benefits
✨ Schedule any follow up appointments you've been putting off
✨ Get started with personalized nutrition support before the year ends

Whether you're looking to improve your relationship with food, manage a health condition, or simply feel more confident in your nutrition choices, we're here to support you.

Let's make the most of your 2026 benefits!

Visit the link in our bio to get started or reach out to learn more about scheduling with our team.

Please note: coverage varies by insurance plan. We recommend confirming your specific benefits directly with your insurance provider.

You're invited to join the club! ✨

The Anti-Diet Athletic Club is our limited time merch collection, created for people who move because it feels good, eat without keeping score, and believe their bodies are worthy just as they are.

We created this collection for anyone who believes that movement doesn't have to be punishment, food doesn't need to be earned, and your body doesn't need to be smaller to deserve taking up space.

Diet culture has been loud for long enough, so we thought it was time to make a little noise back!



Wear it to the gym, school pickup, your Saturday coffee run, or while doing absolutely nothing athletic at all. That's encouraged, too! 😉

🛍️ Ordering closes October 25th!

Our collection features tees, sweatshirts, hoodies, and more! We need a minimum of 24 pieces ordered to bring the collection to life, so every order counts.

Once orders arrive, you can choose shipping or pickup at our Illinois or Missouri location.

Swipe to explore the collection or shop at the link in comments below.

WELCOME TO THE CLUB.

Today is World Food Day 🌎

Food is more than fuel. It connects us through culture, tradition, community, and shared experiences.

Today is also a reminder that access to nourishing food matters. Everyone deserves access to food and nutrition support without judgment.

At Branz, we believe nutrition care should consider the whole person and the circumstances that shape how they eat. 💛

🎉 Celebrating ONE YEAR with Michelle Brown!

Today we're celebrating one year with someone who plays such an important role behind the scenes at Branz Nutrition Counseling!

Let's be real, the billing and insurance side of healthcare isn't always glamorous. Between navigating complicated insurance policies, troubleshooting claims, and spending what feels like endless hours on hold with insurance companies, Michelle handles it all with incredible knowledge, patience, and dedication.

She goes above and beyond for our practice, our team, and the clients we serve, and we truly don't know what we'd do without her. So much of what she does happens behind the scenes, but the impact of her hard work is felt every single day.

Michelle, we are so grateful for everything you do and the care you put into your work. We're incredibly lucky to have you on our team!

“I should be cooking more.”

It's a thought that might seem harmless, but have you ever stopped to consider where that expectation comes from?

We're often surrounded by messages that suggest home cooked meals are inherently better, convenience foods should be avoided, and putting more effort into preparing food somehow means we're taking better care of ourselves.

But the reality is that nourishment doesn't look the same for everyone, and it doesn't have to look the same every day.

Time, energy, finances, health conditions, accessibility, and the demands of everyday life all influence how we feed ourselves. Choosing a frozen meal, grabbing takeout, or relying on familiar convenience foods doesn't mean you're doing anything wrong.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to cook more, either. The important distinction is whether that desire comes from a place of care and curiosity or guilt and pressure.

Because nourishing yourself shouldn't come with a side of shame.

In one of our latest blog posts, we explore the hidden diet culture messaging behind “I should be cooking more” and how we can begin shifting toward a more compassionate, flexible approach to food.

We’re so excited to welcome Hannah Bast, MS, RDN, LDN to our Kirkwood team! 🤍

Hannah’s interest in nutrition started early after tagging along to one of her sister’s classes at Saint Louis University and falling in love with the connection between food, cooking, and health. That experience eventually led her back to SLU, where she completed both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nutrition and dietetics with a concentration in pediatrics.

Hannah takes a compassionate, weight inclusive, all foods fit approach and believes nutrition care should feel individualized, supportive, and free from judgment. She works with children, teens, adults, and families across a wide range of needs, including pediatric and family nutrition, renal nutrition, PMOS, diabetes, body image, intuitive eating, disordered eating, and eating disorder recovery.

Outside of the office, Hannah loves reading, spending time with friends and family, traveling, swimming, dancing, and musical theater. She is also working toward visiting all 50 states!

Hannah is now booking in person in Kirkwood, MO and via telehealth.

We’re so excited to welcome Amy Costa, MS, RDN, LDN to our O’Fallon team! 🤍

Amy took a less traditional path to becoming a registered dietitian, transitioning from a culinary career into nutrition and dietetics. That background gives her a unique perspective on food, including how to prepare it, make it practical, and use it to support health without losing enjoyment along the way.

Amy takes a compassionate, weight inclusive approach grounded in Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size® principles. She supports clients with eating disorders and disordered eating, diabetes and insulin resistance, celiac disease and gluten intolerance, ARFID, sports nutrition, GLP 1 nutrition support, and more.
Outside of work, Amy loves gardening, beekeeping, hiking, cooking, reading, and spending time with her dogs. She has also worked as a zookeeper in a herpetarium, which might be one of our favorite fun facts yet.

Amy is now booking in person in O’Fallon, IL and via telehealth.

Reminder: Nutrition support can start with wanting more energy, less stress around food, better digestion, more consistent meals, support with a medical condition, or simply feeling more confident in how you nourish yourself and your family.

It does not have to begin with changing your body. Nutrition care can support your health, wellbeing, and relationship with food without centering weight loss.

Wherever you are in your nutrition journey, we would love to support you with care that is individualized, compassionate, and respectful of the whole person.
