Diabetes Management

Sure, I’d rather you eat plenty of fruits and veggies instead of chicken wings and poutine, but rest assured this program is not a dictatorship. So your first step is to resist the urge to cast nutritionists or dieticians as villains threatening your food freedom!

In fact, that’s what makes working with a nutritionist so valuable: instead of a one-size-fits all approach, you’ll get information that fits your personal needs.

This program isn’t only for diabetics. I can also help you create an eating plan for special diets often related to diabetes. For example, celiac disease, kidney disease, lactose intolerance, or pregnancy.

This package includes...

• 60-minute initial consultation to review your health history and current health status, and to define your health goals and current diabetes treatment
• A 60-minute follow-up session with recommendations specific to your needs
• Customized information package and resource materials
• (Optional) 7-day meal plan with snacking ideas and mouth-watering recipes (+$95)

I will even take the recipes for some of your favourite foods and alter them to fit your dietary needs while keeping them appetizing to you. Yes — even cheesecake!

You will learn...

• Recommendations for supplements and herbs specific to your needs
• The best healthy sweeteners (and how to incorporate them into recipes)
• Strategies for navigating restaurants and food courts
• How to read food labels (and see the hidden sugars)
• Which carbohydrates to embrace
