RASA NUTRITION

trust your choices - revitalize your body with fuel - build your tribe for
success

Whole Body Nutrition for Every Body

We believe that nutrition is interdependent with environment.  And professional
nutrition counseling can teach you to develop healthy relationships, build
strength and develop a sense of belonging.  Our goal is to work with you to tune
your nutrition and establish a foundation for success so that your body can be
healthy and begin to heal itself.  Health and longevity come from an honored and
respected body.

NUTRITION FOR EATING DISORDERS

Nutritional counseling focused on learning to trust your body.  Liberate your
health by waking up to the damaging effects of diet culture and honor your whole
being by nourishing yourself with care and respect.

NUTRITION FOR SPORTS & PERFORMING ARTISTS

Nutrition counseling for optimal fueling, injury prevention and recovery to help
you achieve your best physical and mental performance.

NUTRITION FOR BODY TRUST (CURRENTLY LEARNING)



Body Trust nutrition counseling has the power to break systems of oppression.
Rasa Nutrition invites all bodies to be cared for, loved, respected and belong,
regardless of size, nourishing patterns, culture, sex, race, ability, sexual
orientation, age, or health. I believe that healing your relationships with food
and body is liberating, allowing you to be fully present in your life with love,
joy, respect, and belonging. Land in your body. Learn the power of trusting your
body's wisdom.

MEDICAL NUTRITION THERAPY

Nutrition counseling focused on enhancing your body's ability to prevent medical
conditions and create a lifestyle that provides a vital, vibrant, fulfilling
life regardless of any medical condition or diagnosis.

NUTRITION FOR FIRST RESPONDERS

Nutrition counseling using science informed nutrition strategies.  We focus on
helping caretakers maximize mental and physical functionality for demanding and
unpredictable schedules.

TALKS & PRESENTATIONS



Performance based talks, nutrition topics to 'pique your curiosity' or a
'lunch-and-learn', are just some of the things we love doing.  We have
experience working with teams & groups, coaches & organizations, universities &
corporations, and with busy professionals.

Let's work together!



SOME TESTIMONIALS FROM CURRENT AND PAST CLIENTS

"I was referred to Rasa by my primary care doctor in December 2019. I had severe
GI issues and had lost an alarming amount of weight. Rasa listened to my
concerns and found a way to fit me in her already full schedule. I knew I'd
found my saving grace. Rasa listened. She gave me hope when no one else had any
answers. I remember her saying: 'Sandy, the human body has an enormous capacity
to heal itself'. She worked with me for the last year, helping me reintroduce
foods, and understand the complexity of my health concerns. Rasa has been my
lifeline every time I thought I was going backwards. Just hearing her voice
brought an immediate sense of calm and that everything was going to be alright.
I'll forever be thankful for all that she's one for me.

 

—  Nutrition client

"I sincerely do not know where our women's team would be without Rasa and her
expertise in nutrition. She is not only a brilliant person but also an Olympic
athlete that has experienced the same pressures and frustrations that every
elite athlete faces and has to overcome. She is a wonderful resource for our
track and field and cross-country student athletes not only in group meetings
but also out on the course and track. She cares about everyone and every woman
that works with her has a huge amount of respect for her as a professional and a
person. Any team or individual would be lucky to have her work with them."

ABOUT

"I WANT YOU TO

HAVE THE ENERGY TO ACCOMPLISH AMAZING THINGS."


IT'S WITHIN YOUR REACH

Meet Rasa Troup, MS, RD, CSSD, LD, OLY



As a parent, business owner and Olympian, Rasa Troup RD understands hurdles.



She also knows how to overcome them.

Education & Professional Athletics




I believe that the diversity of our bodies is a cause for celebration.  As we
learn to fuel our bodies and build healthy relationships, we learn to honor and
respect our bodies.  And the risk of change, the pressure of expectations, and
the oppression of being, are replaced by confidence, self-compassion and
accomplishments.  You are the caretaker of your body and becoming the best
version of you is within your reach. 

"... your body is not only yours... (it) belongs to your ancestors, your
parents, and future generations... and every living thing brought about the
presence of your body. We can eat with care, knowing we are caretakers of our
bodies, rather than their owners."

- Thich Nhat Hanh

As a competitive athlete, I struggled with nutrition in the middle of
competitive athletics.  As a result, I learned that proper nutrition is
crucial.  Healthy fuel creates the optimal opportunity to compete and
accomplish.  As a nutrition professional with over 20 years of experience, I
work with people from various walks of life and athletes of all abilities from
amateur to professional.  No matter who you are, I strongly believe that each of
us has an athlete within.  Every day, we perform. I want you to have the energy
to accomplish amazing things!



At Rasa Nutrition, we believe nutrition is interdependent with environment, so
we provide nutrition counseling for the whole body.  I'm a veteran sports
dietitian and have worked with the University of Minnesota Athletics, The Emily
Program (eating disorder clinic), The Minnesota Vikings and The Minnesota Twins,
as well as University of Minnesota Physicians, Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital,
Viverant, and TRia Orthopaedic. 

 

Our goal at Rasa Nutrition is to work with you to tune your nutrition, so your
body can be healthy and heal itself.  Working with me, you will learn to create
healthy relationships by fueling your body and building your tribe.



I firmly believe that health, a sense of belonging, strength, and longevity all
come from an honored and respected body.



Note: At this time Rasa is not active on her social media accounts.

Diversity and Inclusion

I welcome you. I acknowledge and value that each of us brings a unique culture
and history forward with us as we grow. I recognize you as a unique individual
and am honored to work with you. I will respect your culture, identity and
significance.



I, and Rasa Nutrition, are constantly learning and unlearning in order to
provide nutrition counseling in a weight and health consumed world that dishes
nutritional ideologies, fitness information and marginalizes humans based on
their size, weight, sexual orientation, ability, health, race, sex, age, and
cultural backgrounds.




SOME TESTIMONIALS FROM CURRENT AND PAST CLIENTS

“Thank you for all your years of expertise and professionalism with my patients.
 The knowledge and expertise you share with them continues to amaze me.  You
also have such a great ability to deal with everything from weight loss to
maximizing energy to hydration.  It’s nice to know I have a great professional
in my corner.

—  Pete Garber, PT

"I have had the pleasure of working with Rasa in a variety of settings over the
past five years and have constantly been impressed with her integrity,
dedication, and ability to juggle multiple tasks and jobs. She passionately
delivers sound nutrition information in an empathetic and compassionate way and
empowers clients to take charge of their own health. Working with Rasa has been
a pleasure and I highly recommended her services."

— Athlete, University of Minnesota
