Let's Eat Healthy Champion Spotlight

Cesar Sauza, RD

Clinical Nutrition Manager
AltaMed Health Services
Los Angeles, California

Registered dietitian Cesar Sauza is Clinical Nutrition Manager at AltaMed Health Services in Los Angeles, California. For many years Cesar worked with the pediatric weight management program providing nutrition interventions to families and contributing to the curriculum development. In this program, families were taught how to introduce a variety of healthier foods to form long-term habits rather than taking a dieting approach. Cesar and his team of dietitians continue to provide nutrition intervention to pediatric patients of all ages with various conditions. All his experience has been in communities with a predominately underserved population. He believes in improving the health of these communities through the power of food. Cesar shared:

Nutrition education to our youth is crucial in the prevention of preventable future health issues, rather than focusing on restriction and avoidance we should be encouraging whole foods and movement.
