THE COST OF NUTRITION COUNSELLING

Have you ever wondered about the role of nutrition in general health and well-being at every stage of life?

Our registered dietitians have the answers. They can show you how to modify your diet to feel better, look better, and live longer. They review your food habits and lifestyle, work with you to develop a nutritional plan that fits your personal needs, and show you how to apply the plan. All registered dietitians hold a bachelor’s degree or graduate degree specializing in foods and nutrition, and all have completed an accredited internship. In every province, practicing dietitians are regulated, ensuring safe and ethical advice.

Counselling sessions with a registered dietitian are an insurable service in most extended health benefit plans.

Individual Nutrition Services

CONSULTATION SESSION
This is a half-hour or one-hour session with one of our registered dietitians where you discuss your personal goals, review your food habits and lifestyle, and devise personalized strategies for healthier eating.

Dietitians can show you how to balance your meals for energy and vitality, and get you on the right path to meeting your goals.

Find out how you can make your nutrition plan work, with practical tips on cooking, shopping, and eating in restaurants.

Are you on a specialized diet and having trouble figuring out how to get your eating habits in line with your doctor’s advice? A consultation session can help you develop your own comprehensive food management plan.

Subsequent individual consultation sessions build on the results of earlier sessions, with in-depth looks at your plan, how well it is working, modifications for improvement, and techniques for applying it successfully.

All Reh-Fit members receive the one-hour session of this individual nutrition service, once a year, as part of their membership.
