FAQ
What do Clinical Dietitians and Nutritionists do?
Clinical dietitians and nutritionists specialize in translating the science of nutrition into realistic and personalized goals. Their expertise includes assessing patients' nutritional needs, creating tailored meal plans, offering dietary advice, and even integrating modern technology, such as nutrition apps, to monitor progress. Unlike generic online guides, they consider medical history, lifestyle, and even cultural preferences to design highly individual solutions.
What a diabetes-focused nutritional plan may include?
• Balancing Carbohydrates: Dietitians guide you on portioning carb-rich foods like rice and bread while combining them with protein and healthy fats to prevent spikes in blood sugar. • Simplifying Glycemic Index (GI): Foods with a low GI ensure slower sugar absorption—a focus area for controlling diabetes. Think lentils, sweet potatoes, or whole grains. • A Focus on Fiber: Fiber slows down sugar absorption and helps in maintaining gut health. Foods like vegetables, nuts, and seeds make regular appearances on a diabetes-friendly meal plan.
