Strengthen your health through nutrition

Eating well can make a big difference in how you feel, and you don't have to take on the challenge alone.

Nutrition support for the whole family

Many Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (Blue Cross NC) health plans include up to 30 preventive care visits a year with an in-network licensed dietitian at no cost to you.1 All family members covered under your health plan have access to these visits.

Every health plan is different, so be sure to check the benefits covered by your plan in the Blue Cross NC member portal.

How a dietitian can help

You can meet with a licensed dietitian in person or through telehealth.2 They will partner with you to make changes to your diet and give advice — not just a list of foods to eat or avoid.

Nutrition services aren't one size fits all. Whether you're looking to perform your best on the field, rebuild strength after an illness, or address chronic conditions, food experts can help you find solutions for your needs.
