about Heidi

Heidi McIndoo, MS, RD, LDN is an award-winning, registered dietitian. She’s a nationally recognized nutrition expert who’s written for and been quoted in hundreds of publications and media outlets.

Heidi began her love of food & cooking as a very young girl. Living with food allergies for many years gave her an understanding of how challenging eating can be for some. In deciding to become a registered dietitian, she combined these two very important parts of her life to help others eat healthfully, manage their personal eating issues, and most importantly enjoy food.

As a busy working mom with 2 young children, Heidi practices what she preaches every day—balancing work, family, and play while enjoying and nurturing healthy habits. For more than 17 years she’s helped teach men, women, children, and families how important, easy, and delicious eating nutritiously can be.

She received her Bachelor of Science in dietetics from the University of Connecticut and her Masters of Science in nutrition communication at Tufts University in Boston, Massachusetts. While completing her Masters degree, Heidi interned and worked at The Food Network’s New York studios.

Heidi served as a national media spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association providing sound nutrition advice for magazines, newspapers, radio, and television interviews. In 2001 she was named a Recognized Young Dietitian of the Year by the American Dietetic Association. She currently enjoys life with her husband and two children in the suburban-Boston area.
