General Nutrition & Wellbeing

"Based on a detailed consultation, in-depth medical history, lifestyle, personal likes and dislikes, our nutrition partners design a truly personalised nutrition plan for each client, along with tips, advice and recipes designed to enhance weight loss, help regulate appetite and reduce overeating.

 

Where appropriate, a plan can also be targeted to address any specific health issues, symptoms or medical conditions you may be suffering from."

 

It will include:

A one and half hour face to face initial consultation, including:

• A detailed review and analysis of your completed health questionnaires

• Full medical and lifestyle history

• Blood pressure measurement

• Weight, height and various other measurements for all relevant indices and calculations.

• A detailed discussion of your current dietary intake, eating habits, schedule, lifestyle, preferences, aversions and personal struggles

You will also receive:

A starter pack to get you going right away, including:

Together with a full explanation and education session before you leave, on what they mean and how they will change the way you eat.

Following your appointment:

I spend several hours reviewing all the findings from your forms and the information provided during your appointment.

·         Based on this, I devise your Tailor-Made Food Effect Nutrition Plan, including:

• Report of clinical findings – all your measurements and metabolic rate calculations detailed and explained

• Your calorie requirements calculated (but NO calorie counting involved!), with your specific nutritional needs highlighted

• Dietary recommendations – designed according to your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and activity levels to ensure you achieve your goals

• Menu options for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks based on your taste preferences, lifestyle and nutritional needs

• Plenty of variety to keep things interesting

All plans will be tailored specifically to your height, weight and BMR to ensure weight optimisation – in a way that is optimal and sustainable.
