WHOLE FOODS FOR Therapeutic
benefit
PROFESSIONAL GUIDANCE
Here at Total Nutrition Counseling, we focus on" whole foods first for nourishment and therapeutic benefits, and supplements second, if warranted." We go through a nutrition care process required by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and utilize evidenced based science recommendations. During your initial 1-hour free phone consultation, we'll go over how our program can help you based on your individual nutrition/health goals.
CHOOSE FROM 3 TYPES OF NUTRITION PROGRAMS TO MEET YOUR UNIQUE NUTRITION GOALS
We offer three nutrition programs, to suit your needs. They are designed to get you from your current health situation to your desired health goal. These packages consist of either 6, 8, or 10 week sessions. The package that best suits you will be based on your health situation and the time frame to meet your goals.
Prior to your first session, we'll gather vital information, such as anthropometric data (weight, height, body composition) lab work, medications, supplements, diet preferences, diet history, 3-day food record, lifestyle and social habits related to nutrition (alcohol consumption, sleep, etc.) and eating behaviors. At our first session all of this information will be assessed and addressed, and recommendations will be provided. You will also receive nutrition education involving food quality, and specific nutrition recommendations for your health needs and goals. You will receive your individualized meal plan at your second session, with education on how to start utilizing it. In the third session, which I call my "enlightenment session" we will go over how to use your meal plan in a practical manner for convenient daily use. Following the third appointment, each session will have a theme, depending on your health needs and priorities. An example of a themed session would be how to stock your pantry and refrigerator with convenient healthy foods, or how to eat out healthy, travel nutrition, mindful eating, etc. All sessions will include checking outcomes on your weekly short term goals, as you progress toward your ultimate health and nutrition objective.
POST PROGRAM FOLLOW-UP
In addition to our 6, 8, and 10-week sessions, we offer follow-up sessions. These sessions are designed to supplement the program plan if you desire more one-on-one time to meet your goal. The post program follow ups are also for those who have already purchased a 6, 8, or 10 week plan, and decided to circle back to TNC for whatever reason. Once you purchase a program, you don't have to purchase one again.
