Nutrition coach, holistic health
coach, lifestyle coach, nutritionist…the world of wellness and nutrition
information, and the variety of professional designations, can be daunting.
So how do you know if you need a nutrition coach? Here are five clues that
you may want to look at. But first, let me share a little about my health
coaching & nutrition coaching approach.

Today’s food supply looks much different than it did 100 years
ago. Modern farming, demand for convenience, economics, and other influential
factors have us eating a lot more calorically dense, yet nutritionally
insufficient, and many times toxic foods and beverages. Our conventional
health care providers are not always set up, in the best way, to provide
in-depth education and guidance to people on the importance of establishing a
healthy lifestyle. This leaves many at a loss for a practical,
nutrition-based solution to their basic health and wellness goals and
objectives. Many of these can be supported by a more consistent,
healthy-eating lifestyle. But many people need the extra education,
knowledge, creativity, and personal guidance to make that happen. Simply
turning to a diet or a fad doesn’t really get to the core of what makes the
body function and thrive. That is where nutrition coaching comes
in.

So how do you know
if you need a nutrition coach?

order to live, thrive, heal and reach our best health and wellness potential.
Wait, did I just say everyone needs to be on a diet? Well, in a sense, yes!
The Miriam
Webster definition
of the word
diet is “1 : food and
drink regularly provided or consumed. 2 : habitual nourishment.” In
other words, dieting is simply our preferred manner of eating. But when we
typically think of “dieting,” we only think of a short term,
fragmented fix to try and change something we don’t like about our bodies. This
leads to an underwhelming experience or ultimate failure for most people who
try.

Dieting sucks
because you may be missing key points and going about it all
wrong.
