Why use a Nutrition Coach?
A lot of people think they need to use a Dietician whenever they help them change something about their diet. Whilst for some people dieticians can play a vital role, it helps to be aware of the differences between a deitician and a nutritionist.
Registered Dietitians (RDs)
Are qualified health professionals that assess, diagnose and treat dietary and nutritional problems. Tyical cost £200+/hr
Nutritionists
Are supposed to be qualified to provide information about food and healthy eating, but the industry is not regulated and so some people claiming to be Nutritionists may not actually be qualified.
The main things for you to consider are:
1. Level of qualification. dieticians are regulated by law
2. Nutritionists are not regulated and so may not be qualified (always check!)
3. Cost:- Dieticians usually cost a lot as they have a degree, but many Nutritionists charge almost similar prices.
4. What is it you actually need? If you are not a coeliac for example, or you don't have a medically diagnosed condition that is affected by your diet, then do you really need a dietician?
If all you really need is to work on your weight (gain/loss/maintainenace) or change your eating habits - those aren't medical conditions so consider your options.
A Personal Training qualification is not a Nutrition qualification.
The truth in UK is that Personal Trainers without any further nutrition based qualification are only supposed to offer very basic advice. They should not be telling you what to eat or putting you on some restricted diet, they should only be guiding you towards the Governments Eat Well Guide. So if you are taking nutrition advice from a PT ask them what their nutrition qualification is.
If a PT tells you they will "calculate your macros" or they try to tell you how many calories to eat each day - ASK THEM what their nutrition qualification is and are they qualified to do these things for you?
2. A certified Nutrition Coach is qualified to give you nutrition advice.
Exercise by itself isn't always the best way to reach your goals. For many, the main part of the battle for fat loss is in the kitchen (or dining out, or snacking in front of the TV, or eating everything that was put on your plate even though you're not particularly hungry, etc.). Changing your habits towards food can change your life.
I am a Precision Nutrition Certified Coach. You can check this for yourself on the coaching directory
"The Precision Nutrition Level 1 Certification Program is a comprehensive nutrition education program for elite fitness professionals..."
Not only is the Precision Nutrition method well respected, in UK it is approved by PD on behalf of REPs, (the Register of Exercise Professionals) and now the Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity (CIMSPA).
This means I am a qualified Personal Trainer that can give certified nutrition advice and coaching.
My job as your coach is to cut through all the confusion in the fitness and nutrition industry and guide you on your personal path, using information based on science and real-world studies - no gimmicks, fads or celebrity-endorsed quick-fixes.
I coach lifestyle changes. Starting with simple nutritional habits then building on them.
You choose, either:
This system is excellent* - you are learning at your own pace at a time to suit you.
Don't let the word 'learning' put you off, it is not about hours of study and tests, everything is simple bite-sized chunks, helping you form healthier habits towards food.
The coaching time is via an online meeting once a week using Facteime/Skype/Zoom
Remember, it's not about putting you on a diet, it's about you learning healthier habits to benefit you for your lifetime.
Simple changes, not bouncing from diet to diet and end up putting the weight back on.
One more thing, and it's a big thing! If you actively follow the programme for one year and don't get results I will give you your money back!
*I have that much confidence in the programme I will refund your money if you actively particpiate in the programme for one year and see no change.
