About Fred Durso, MS, RDN

     Welcome! I'm Fred Durso, an award-winning journalist and registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) with more than a decade's worth of experience creating captivating content for a variety of publications and organizations.

     I got my start as a Philadelphia newspaper reporter before packing my bags and heading to Boston. There, I held numerous roles as a staff writer, magazine editor, and communications manager for a variety of nonprofit publications.  ​

     Over time, I developed a deep interest on how food impacts the body. In 2019, I pressed pause on my journalism career and headed to grad school. Countless lecture and lab hours later, I eventually received a master's degree in food and nutrition and became credentialed as an RDN. I'm currently working as an RDN, counseling individuals both in person and virtually on how food can help prevent certain diseases, lessen their disease symptoms, or help them achieve their weight management goals. Book a virtual, nutrition counseling session with me today if you need any support with these conditions.

     I also craft compelling content on nutrition-related topics. Specifically, I'm deeply interested in mindful eating (how the act of being more present in our daily lives can positively impact our eating habits) and food's impact on mental health.  

     I currently live in Salem (Witch City), Massachusetts, with my husband, Jeff, and our basset hound, Lyla.​
