Are you facing challenges with managing your weight? Have you experimented with various fad diets / popular diets in the market, only to discover that they lead to further weight gain? Are you uncertain about which foods and lifestyle choices are best for you?
It’s staggering that nearly two-thirds of individuals in the UK are frequently dieting, and almost half of the population has attempted weight loss in the past year. However, despite these efforts, over 60% of adults and 20% of children are classified as overweight or obese.
Diets often prove unsustainable, and crash dieting can result in nutrient deficiencies and disrupt several bodily functions, ultimately contributing to long-term weight gain. We believe that underlying factors such as hormonal imbalances, stress levels, and medication use can also play a role in weight management and can be overlooked.
How can a registered dietitian make a difference?
Each person is unique, with individual metabolic processes, food cravings, and exercise preferences to name just a few. A tailored plan from a dietitian takes a holistic approach, considering all aspects of the body’s systems, including nutrient intake, metabolism, lifestyle, physical activity levels, and factors contributing to weight gain, such as hormonal imbalances and stress.
By addressing these factors and establishing healthy eating habits tailored to your lifestyle, lasting changes can be achieved. Empower yourself to reclaim your health and well-being.
