Community Highlights: Meet Richa Modak of mod-R® Nutrition & Fitness

Today we’d like to introduce you to Richa Modak. 

Hi Richa, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I am a registered dietitian and prospective doctor of clinical nutrition and founder of mod-R Nutrition & Fitness LLC. mod-R is about finding your inner fitness and wellness! Along with nutrition and exercise, wellness involves everything about you and your lifestyle! I have always had just one honest goal, to make everyone truly healthy and fit using evidence-based practice but without twisting the facts! I have a solid academic background with experience in medical, clinical, sports, community, and global nutrition, which is the reason I chose to become a private practitioner. My first office was a dining table in a rented apartment. That is how mod-R was born! 

mod-R has a plethora of success stories about health, wellness, and chronic disease reversal, an ultimate testament to our teamwork with our patients and clients! 

Another feather set in our cap in this year was that we released a great resource for health and wellness, especially for those who want to embark on a lifestyle journey! Introducing our new health book – “Fat, Flat or Fit?!” (Available for sale on Amazon). 

If there is one major difference between medicine and nutrition, it is that medicine aims to fix the symptoms while nutrition aims to fix the root problems! And here at mod-R, your health is our priority! 

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
When we finally decided to launch mod-R officially in 2020, the pandemic struck our plans down! While telehealth sounds normal now, at that time, it was all new and challenging! There were a great many setbacks to overcome – transitioning to online work, administrative issues and so many more. But we kept a positive attitude and worked our way through it, while always prioritizing our patients and clients!

As you know, we’re big fans of mod-R® Nutrition & Fitness LLC. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
We offer holistic lifestyle, nutrition, and exercise plans that are catered towards your individual wellness needs. We specialize in chronic disease reversal through lifestyle change. 

What sets us apart is that, at mod-R, we work as a team with our patients and clients to achieve their health goals using a customized approach. Meetings with us are like catching up with an old friend! 

To explain our method of practice, we always use this analogy – You are in the driver’s seat, and we are like the GPS! In your car you have a GPS that directs you to your destination. But if you took a wrong exit, your GPS will not abandon you, it will reroute. We work in the same way with our patients, if they are unable achieve a goal, we “reroute” and try to find a different way around those obstacles. 

Alright, so before we go can you talk to us a bit about how people can work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
We are open to collaborate with physicians, registered dietitians and other health care providers / private practitioners who need nutrition and lifestyle consults for patients. 

We are open to collaborate with corporate offices for lifestyle/wellness programs for employees. 

We offer webinars/seminars on nutrition, lifestyle, and wellness for schools, colleges, and other organizations. 

You can also support our work and promote wellness in your community by recommending our services. We greatly value and appreciate your support!
