THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF EACH CLIENT

Create a personal daily menu plan based on your nutritional
requirements. The formulation of your personal nutrition plan will follow these steps:

1. Establish total caloric needs

2. Pinpoint carbohydrate requisites

3. Identify protein requirements

4. Determine essential fat amounts


Note: You must give your body the fat it needs before it will release the unwanted fat.

Food selections will be as close to nature as possible. We will choose
from vegetables, fruit, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, dairy products and fish. Poultry optional.
We will limit or exclude common unhealthy foods such as margarine,
solid vegetable shortening, partially hydrogenated oils, cottonseed oil, artificial sweeteners, artificial coloring, white sugar and sweets in general and consumption of packaged and processed foods.
Food choices are geared toward achieving your
nutritional needs and the RDA vitamin and mineral daily requirements.
