Nutrication offers the services of a Registered Dietitian (sometimes referred to as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist), who can help provide Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) for patients dealing with chronic disease. Our services are provided virtually, to help make it easier for patients to access quality healthcare.
MNT is a form of treatment that uses specific dietary plans to help manage and improve chronic disease outcomes. It is often used in conjunction with other forms of treatment and is provided by a registered dietitian.
Some of the ways MNT can help are:
•Managing diabetes: MNT can help improve blood sugar
control in people with diabetes by providing individualized meal plans that take into account the person's medications, physical activity levels, and other factors.
•Lowering blood pressure: MNT can help reduce blood pressure by encouraging a diet that is low in salt, saturated fat, and added sugars, and high in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
•Reducing cholesterol: MNT can help lower cholesterol levels by promoting a diet that is low in saturated fat and cholesterol, and high in fiber.
•Weight management: MNT can help people lose weight by providing an individualized meal plan that takes into account the person's energy needs, food preferences, and physical activity levels.
•Improving gut health: MNT can help improve gut health by promoting a diet that is high in fiber, fruits, and vegetables and low in processed foods and added sugars.
•Improving nutrient deficiencies: MNT can identify and address nutrient deficiencies that may be contributing to chronic disease outcomes by providing specific nutrient recommendations and meal plans.
MNT is a powerful tool that can help improve chronic disease outcomes by addressing underlying dietary factors and promoting healthy eating habits. Nutrication offers virtual telehealth counseling that consists of an initial consultation and 3 follow up appointments. The package description can be found here.
