Priya Padmanabhan Registered Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist Lifestyle Coach Health a bit Healthy Habit RX San Antonio Texas

Priya Padmanabhan PhD, RD 

Hi there, I am Priya, your Dietitian and Lifestyle Coach. I derive my professional purpose in helping my patients connect the dots between knowing and integrating lifestyle practices in the areas of eating better, moving better, sleeping better, and managing your stress better so that you are able to experience better health outcomes. I collaborate with you to individualize evidence-based lifestyle interventions that work for managing various chronic conditions.


After overcoming my own challenges with breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, I realized that willpower alone doesn't work. The key is to make "Autopilot habits" so that you enjoy the process and can keep up life term.


Before founding healthabitsrx, insurance based private practice, I worked with primary care, family medicine clinics, and hospitals. I have also coached clients at CrossFit Dagda and ThriveWell Cancer Foundation.


I have a teenager who keeps me hoppin', a veggie garden that needs weeding, and a training shoe that I try to put on at least 2x/week.

When you work with me, you are a UNIQUE whole individual, you are more than just plugging your information into a calculator. Making the transition from your current lifestyle to a much healthier one can be hard. I am there to work with you every step of the way to help you get past your obstacles and build a lifestyle that you can maintain and that helps you work towards your personal health goals. I will consider our relationship a success when you become a MASTER of your own health!


My clients are my favorite people in the world. I can't wait to get to know you and help you reach your life-term health commitments.
