Questions to Ask During your Nutrition Counseling Appointment

Categories

Archives

Nutritional counseling can be as important to your physical health as meeting with a therapist is to your mental health. We all lose our way when it comes to eating and getting back on track may need some help and guidance. Our team at Motus Integrative Counseling truly believes that food affects so many aspects of our lives. Our holistic approach is behind our mindset that we can change up our bodies through food, supplements and other lifestyle factors.

What to Expect During Nutritional Counseling

Relying on fast food for our meals can really wreak havoc on our lives. We all know what we should eat, but are we realistic in what we are putting into our bodies on a daily basis. Our counselors will go over your current eating habits. You will need to be upfront and honest in order to truly face and change your food plan. We will help you identify your areas of deficiency and put together a strategy to help you eat and, hopefully, feel better. As this process is a partnership, here are some key questions to discuss during your appointment.

  1. Should I take supplements? We will have a conversation with you about your current eating habits to help you determine if you may benefit from adding a supplement to your daily routine. 
  2. How do I overcome challenges to my meal plan? When you go out with friends or family, you can still stick to your eating plan. We can discuss with you strategies and ways to have a good time without wrecking your diet and going off the charts with your food choices.
  3. What is my goal for caloric intake daily? Our team can work with you on balancing the number of carbohydrates, protein and fats that you are consuming on a daily basis as well as how many calories are best for your plan and future.
  4. Why am I having indigestion/constipation/heartburn? If you are facing specific conditions frequently, we need to hear about this to help tailor your nutrition and eating habits to curb your conditions. We can go over what you eat to determine if there is a particular food or beverage behind your condition.

Nutrition is Way More Than Food

For many patients, a new eating plan is aimed at losing weight, but good nutrition is so much more. Eating right can really help reduce your risk for many diseases as well as reduce your high blood pressure. Being at your healthiest also improves your body’s ability to fight off illnesses and recover from injuries or being sick. Of course, if you put better fuel in, you will get out more energy and positivity. 

Our team is ready to help you with your eating plan through our nutritional counseling services. Reach out to us through our online contact form. We continue to offer free initial consultations.
