If this looks like your balanced diet and you've put on a kilo or two, then you may need some professional advice from someone other then the bartender!
What Does a Dietitian Do?
Accredited Practising Dietitians (APD) are university qualified nutrition specialists that understand the science of food and the body.
Dietitians must have a minimum of 4 years study and are trained to understand the latest scientific evidence for food, its nutrients and how they affect your health.
Dietitians can help guide people on a group or individual basis, constructing meal plans, give guidance on how food may prevent and improve a number of conditions such as:
- Chronic diseases: heart disease, diabetes (type 1 or type 2)
- Insulin resistance or pre-diabetes
- Cancer
- Healthy and individual weight loss
- Renal disease
- Allergies and food intolerances (eg coeliac disease, lactose intolerance)
- Digestive issues (eg irritable bowel, reflux, hiatus hernia, diverticulitis)
- Elite sports performance
- General health and wellbeing
- Specialised nutrition for the elderly
