What makes Laura Zervos with Laura Zervos Food and Nutritional Services a Good Neighbor?

Looking for nutrition advice that survives real life, not just a perfect week? We sit down with registered dietitian and licensed nutritionist Laura Zervos, whose culinary-school roots and private practice in Bethel Park bring flavor and science together. Laura works with clients in person and remotely to manage chronic conditions and weight through strategies that are simple, flexible, and built for busy schedules.
Laura shares the surprising bridge from restaurant kitchens to patient care, and how that experience shapes her approach to meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking techniques that make healthy food taste good. We unpack stubborn myths- like the idea that one session fixes everything, or that age, cost, and time make change impossible- and replace them with a step-by-step method that turns “I know what to do” into “I’m doing it every day.” You’ll hear how she tailors plans for clients from ages two to eighty-five, why many find her after a new diagnosis like prediabetes or fatty liver, and how consistent check-ins remove barriers before they become roadblocks.
We also dive into Mediterranean-style eating and why it adapts so well to local life. Laura lays out practical ways to bring more color, fiber, and satisfaction onto the plate without losing the joy of food: sheet-pan veggies, bean-forward soups, whole grains, olive oil, herbs, and smarter snacks that carry you through commutes, meetings, and social events. Her process is grounded in real routines- family meals, travel, book club brunches- and the honest adjustments that make healthy choices stick when life gets messy.
If you want evidence-based nutrition that fits your world, this conversation delivers. Listen, take one small step today, and build from there.
