Nutritional counseling is recommended during weight loss to help you learn about your eating habits and how those choices affect your health and lifestyle. There are many reasons why a person may seek nutritional counseling, especially in their older years. Our medical professionals will work closely with you to assess your current eating patterns and help you identify areas where you may need to change.
During a consultation, our specialist can help you understand how food affects your health and well-being. We may explain why there are certain foods that are important to be included in your diet. We will help you set goals and show you practical ways to change your unhealthy eating habits.
There are several ways that our specialist may assess your dietary habits. Once we have a clear picture of your dietary habits, we can identify any changes that are needed.

It may start with one or two items with additional changes over the next few months. Most people are not asked to make drastic changes in their eating habits all at once.
