Dietetics
Dietetics is the science of applying the principles of nutrition to the diet.
Helping you to build healthy eating patterns
When should I see a Dietitian?
One of the primary reasons for seeing a Dietitian is for weight loss and managing specific dietary requirements. Using scientific methods, meal and recipe planning is designed to ensure proper nutrition whilst cutting out foods that can impact your health. Dietitians also deal with getting to the root cause of binge eating and compulsive behaviours related to food.
If you are overweight, obese, have type II diabetes or have allergies or food intolerances, including IBS, then seeing a dietitian can ensure you have a scientific plan for healthy food intake.

Should You Count Calories?
When trying to lose weight, one of the most common questions asked in our clinics is “How many calories do I need?” The justification for needing to know your energy requirements seems logical – in order to lose weight, you must know how many calories you need and don’t exceed your limit. However, in truth, weight loss is never as simple as calories in and calories out.
