Our story, your journey
Welcome to The Beast Dietitian, the online home of Empowered Beast Nutrition. I’m Taiyyibah Moughal, RDN, CDN, ISAK-1, HMCC—a sports performance and media dietitian dedicated to helping you fuel with confidence, perform your best, and feel truly empowered in your body.
I work with athletes who demand results: weight-class and combat athletes (Jiujitsu, MMA, wrestling), team sport athletes, endurance competitors, and high school through collegiate athletes. I also specialize in working with individuals managing PCOS, seeking sustainable weight loss, and navigating hormone balance.
What sets me apart?
I offer both virtual and in-person consultations at my office, equipped with the InBody 580—one of the most advanced body composition analyzers available. This professional-grade technology provides precise data on muscle mass, body fat percentage, segmental analysis, and more; giving you actionable insights to track real progress, not just scale weight.
As an ISAK Level 1 Anthropometrist, I also provide detailed body composition assessments for athletes who need smart, safe changes. I’m HMCC certified (Health Mindset Coaching), meaning I help you build a more empowered mindset around food, performance, and your body—not just hand you a meal plan. As a member of the Combat Weight Class Special Interest Group with ASPDA, I stay current on cutting-edge sports nutrition strategies.
My foundation is solid: I completed my Dietetic Internship at LIU Post with 1,200+ supervised practice hours at Stony Brook University, Veterans Affairs Northport, and NYU Langone Health. I hold a B.S. in Nutrition and Exercise Physiology from Queens College (CUNY), giving me deep knowledge of how the body moves, trains, and recovers.
I’m also a media dietitian, sharing evidence-based nutrition advice in articles and interviews—because everyone deserves to fuel like an athlete.
My PCOS Expertise
One of my key specialties is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). I create tailored nutrition strategies to support hormone balance, improve symptoms, support fertility goals, and enhance overall well-being—without extreme restriction or all-or-nothing rules
The Mission
At Empowered Beast Nutrition, my goal is simple: help you fuel your body, trust your plan, and empower your inner beast—on the mat, on the field, in the gym, and in everyday life.
At Empowered Beast Nutrition, home of The Beast Dietitian, we’re committed to helping you reach your goals with personalized, one-on-one support—whether you prefer virtual sessions or in-person appointments at our office.
Whether you’re:
- An athlete cutting weight or moving into a new weight class
- A team or endurance athlete needing better fueling and recovery strategies
- Managing PCOS, weight changes, or a health condition
We always prioritize your health, performance, and long-term results—never quick fixes.
Through 1:1 counseling (virtual or in-person), ongoing adjustments to your plan, and support rooted in health mindset coaching (HMCC), you’ll get clear, realistic steps—not generic advice. In-person clients also have access to InBody 580 body composition testing, giving you precise, data-driven insights to track muscle gain, fat loss, and hydration status beyond what a scale can show.
You’ll also have access to message your dietitian between sessions, so you’re supported and empowered every step of the way, not just during appointments.
Our mission is to empower your inner beast—helping you feel stronger, more confident, and fully supported. Whether you’re stepping onto the mat, lining up at the start line, or simply trying to feel good in your own skin, we’re here to help you take control of your nutrition and own your performance.
