About the Author

Jill Castle, MS, RD, LDN

I am a Registered Dietitian (RD), specializing in pediatric nutrition.  Many people say to me, “Wow, that is so needed,” or “I’ve never heard of such a thing!”  Well, yes, what I do is needed, especially with the state of child nutrition these days, and the confusion parents and families feel about feeding, food, and child nutrition.

I am a child nutrition expert and have over 20 years of experience in the field of pediatric nutrition.  I am also a mother (of 4) and a business owner.  I have a passion for working with children of all ages (0-20 years to be exact), and a dedication to helping parents be the best feeders, supporters, and homefront nutrition experts they can be.

This blog is simply an extension of what I do each day with my own clients and my own children.  My intent is to provide nutrition information, practical advice that you can use and help you navigate the hard stuff with reality-based solutions that are grounded in science.

I also hope to help families understand the specialized nutrition needs of children– not just the WHAT of eating (food)–but also the HOW and WHY of feeding children.

Welcome to Just The Right Byte! I hope you enjoy your stay and find some nugget of information that can help you and your family.
