Prior to the first visit, an in depth assessment will be filled out. The first one hour appointment will go over your full medical history, medication, and supplements. We will also discuss current nutrition habits, goals and barriers. From this and the assessment a strategy will be developed. If needed, labs will be ordered to identify underlying factors that can significantly influence your overall health which needs addressed in conjunction with the nutritional focus.
At the follow-up visit, more in depth nutrition recommendations will be put into place. Further education on disease state, supplement regimen, or nutrition education will occur at this appointment.
If labs were run, you will come back into the office to discuss the labs and put a plan of care into place based on your blood chemistry. Usually supplements will be suggested and nutrition recommendations will be put into place.
