Nutrition And Dietetics
The specialty of Nutrition and Dietetics studies the relationship between nutrition and health. Nutritionists and dietitians work to help people achieve and maintain a healthy diet, and to prevent and treat nutrition-related diseases.
ConexionMED wants to help families lead a healthy life.
These professionals deepen the knowledge and study of nutrients, digestion and food metabolism in the human body. Nutritionists and dietitians apply this knowledge to help people develop personalized meal plans that fit their health needs and goals.
In more specific terms, the duties of a nutritionist may include:
Nutritional Status Assessment:
A nutritionist assesses a person’s nutritional status through a series of tests and laboratory analyzes to determine if there are any nutrient deficiencies or excesses in the diet.
Diet Planning:
Based on the results of the nutritional assessment, the nutritionist designs a personalized eating plan to improve health and prevent or treat diet-related illnesses.
Food Education:
Nutritionists provide information and education on nutrition and healthy eating to help people make informed decisions about their diet and lifestyle.
Counseling:
Nutritionists also provide counseling and support to people seeking to improve their diet and health, which may include tracking and monitoring progress and adjusting the meal plan as needed.
Research:
Some nutritionists engage in research in the field of nutrition, which may involve developing and evaluating feeding programs or conducting clinical studies to improve the understanding of the relationship between diet and health.
