Who is Flight Crew Nutrition For?

Flight Crew Nutrition is designed specifically for pilots, airline attendants, corporate aviation crews, helicopter pilots, cargo pilots, and other aviation personnel who work irregular schedules and struggle with sleep, fatigue, and consistent nutrition.

What makes this program different from regular nutrition coaching?

Traditional nutrition plans don’t account for red-eyes, time zone changes, airport food, hotel gyms, and 4 a.m. show times. My programs are built around aviation schedules and real-world crew life.

Do you understand aviation lifestyle challenges?

Yes. My husband transitioned from helicopter flying to the airlines, and I’ve seen firsthand how fatigue, long duty days, and circadian disruption affect performance and health. Everything I teach is built with that reality in mind.

Will this help me stay FAA/medical compliant?

The program focuses on sustainable weight management, blood sugar control, heart health, and overall wellness, all of which support maintaining medical certification. Everything is rooted in evidence-based nutrition and safe practices.

Can this help with fatigue and jet lag?

Yes. Nutrition timing, hydration, caffeine strategy, and circadian rhythm support are key components of the program to help reduce fatigue and improve alertness.

I'm not a pilot, would this still work for me?

Yes. Our services are designed to support all airline and aviation personnel, no matter your role. Whether you're attending to customers or you're family navigating the aviation lifestyle, we are here to help.

I fly red-eyes / long-haul / reserve. Will this still work for me?

Yes. Strategies are adaptable for long-haul, short-haul, reserve schedules, and irregular duty days.

What if I eat most of my meals in airports?

You’ll get practical airport meal guidance, “best choice” strategies, and backup snack systems so you’re never stuck with poor options.

Do you work with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or prediabetes?

Yes. As a dietitian and nutrition professional, I provide evidence-based guidance for cardiometabolic health, which is especially important in aviation.

Is this just for weight loss?

No. Many clients come for:
- Energy improvement
- Better sleep quality
- Reduced brain fog
- Digestive support
- Performance optimization

How do sessions work with changing schedules?

All coaching is conducted virtually, making it accessible no matter where you’re based and flexible scheduling is available to accommodate trip swaps, reserve changes, and last-minute assignments.

Do you recommend supplements?

Only when appropriate and evidence-based. Aviation-safe considerations are always prioritized.
