A nutritionist costs $100 to $200 for the first consultation. Follow-up sessions cost $70 to $100 per hour. Hiring a nutritionist is worth it to get customized meal plans that help improve your health by changing your diet. Appointments are typically 1 to 2 times weekly.
A basic nutritionist offers general health advice only.
A registered dietitian qualifies for insurance coverage, treats more serious medical conditions, and costs slightly more.
