- Practical strategies you can put into practice immediately
- Relevant dietary guidelines and resources
- A clear plan for follow-up support as your treatment progresses
Building a strong foundation for your nutrition journey
Your initial consultation is an opportunity for you and your dietitian to understand the factors that shape your food choices and build a plan that works for your life.
Your dietitian will take the time to understand your home environment, work routine, food preferences, cooking skills and key health goals. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions you have.
Every initial appointment includes a body composition scan, showing how much of your body is muscle and fat, and where it is carried, to guide your nutrition plan.
