BE SMART – EAT SMART!
“Those who think they have not the time for healthy eating and active living will sooner or later have to find time for illness and disease.” Hippocrates
Are you:
- At a stage in life where your nutritional needs may be changing, such as motherhood (pregnancy, breastfeeding), menopause (women) or andropause (men)?
- Dealing with a change in lifestyle that requires some dietary changes?
- Trying to maintain your body composition with aging?
- Recently diagnosed with high cholesterol or triglycerides, pre-diabetes, or blood pressure problems and are unsure of which foods are best for reducing your risk of heart disease?
- Coping with a newly diagnosed health condition and want to know how to modify your diet, how to incorporate and enjoy healthy foods, and how to get started and stay motivated?
Then you are ready for a Nutrition Check Up!
Food choices are important to achieve and maintain peak health. Your food choices will also affect your energy levels, body composition, and help reduce risks of chronic disease. Food is like fuel in a car – use the wrong type or not enough and the car does not run well, if at all.

This is for those people who want to focus on individual nutrition issues with a Registered Dietitian. This assessment will include dietary, lifestyle and medical questions that will be important in guiding personal nutrition recommendations. It also includes a review of your eating and physical activity log to evaluate your current habits and a discussion on where some changes could be made to meet your health goals.

These sessions are encouraged for current clients who have completed a nutrition assessment as a follow-up to provide on-going expert advice on individualized dietary strategies, meal planning, label reading, and/or food preparation skills.
Body Composition Analysis
A body composition test measures your unique body composition and helps us to determine your personal caloric requirements. An accurate assessment of your body composition helps you and your Dietitian, to better plan and evaluate your nutrition programs. This body composition test is done with the latest in multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis using the InBody570. The extreme accuracy of this analysis makes it possible for the InBody570 to monitor the slightest compositional changes during the process of weight loss/gain.
Dietary Analysis
You will record your food and fluid intake for 3 days (2 weekdays and 1 weekend day) on the photo-based web tool called KEENOA. Your food log will be analyzed and a nutrition summary will provided to you. We will use this analysis to better understand what you are doing well and where you could integrate some changes into your daily meals and snacks.

The comprehensive assessment includes TWO body composition analyses, an initial nutrition assessment, a dietary analysis on KEENOA, energy budgeting and meal planning sessions AND two 30 minute nutrition counseling sessions with a Registered Dietitian.
