Nutritionist Discusses Benefits of Popular Weight Loss Tool

Clinical Professor and Chair for the Department of Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Mindy Haar, Ph.D., RDN, is quoted in a Woman’s World article discussing Noom, a program that largely encourages weight loss through nutrition education and eating habit awareness. Haar, who has practiced clinical nutrition for more than 45 years, is supportive of this psychology-based approach, which emphasizes sustainable eating behaviors, and reminds readers that a focus on long-term lifestyle changes enables longer-lasting weight loss than fad diets.
