At Tadawi Medical Center, you can get nutrition consultants and design a nutritional plan specific to your needs and health goals.

What is a nutritional consultation?

A nutrition consultation is a one-on-one session with a nutrition consultant, aimed at assessing an individual’s dietary habits, health goals, and nutritional needs to develop a tailored nutrition plan that supports overall health, manages medical conditions, or achieves specific wellness objectives, like weight management, improved energy levels, or athletic performance.

What is the nutrition consultation process?

The nutrition consultation process is a structured approach led by a nutrition consultant to assess and improve an individual’s diet and lifestyle habits. It typically involves the following steps:

1. Initial Consultation:

The certified nutritionist will gather information about your medical history and your lifestyle factors. You may be asked to complete a questionnaire about your typical eating habits, food preferences, and any dietary restrictions, such as activity level, sleep patterns, stress levels, and smoking/alcohol consumption.

Then you and the nutrition consultant will collaboratively set realistic and achievable health goals, such as weight loss, muscle gain, or managing a medical condition.

2. Assessment During the First Session:

The professional nutritionist will analyze your dietary intake to identify any nutritional deficiencies, imbalances, or areas for improvement by highlighting patterns on:

• Body composition analysis (InBody 770) an accurate analysis to measure body weight, muscle mass, body fat percentage and total body water content and their distribution throughout the body.
• Blood analysis, cholesterol levels, or glucose levels.
• Health concerns like allergies or diabetes or IBS.

3. Personalized Plan Development:

and based on your individual needs and goals, the health nutritionist will develop a personalized nutrition plan that may include:

• Dietary recommendations on macronutrient intake (carbohydrates, protein, fat), portion sizes, and meal frequency.
• Strategies and tips for meal planning, food choices, and preparing healthy meals that align with your dietary needs and preferences.
• Lifestyle modifications for increasing physical activity, managing stress, and improving sleep quality.
• Supplement recommendations (if necessary) for vitamins, minerals, or probiotics.

4. Ongoing Support and Monitoring:

Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your progress, address any challenges, and make adjustments to your nutrition plan as needed to help you achieve your health and wellness goals.
