Nutritionists

Nutritionists are primarily concerned with the prevention and treatment of illnesses through proper dietary care. 

A nutritionist's approach is holistic in nature, meaning they are trained to view the patient as a whole person rather than simply a disease. They focus on education and motivation rather than simply prescribing a set diet. Dietary recommendations may even include some techniques from herbal or Eastern medicine. They are broad in their perspective and will work with a variety of health models to help their clients achieve a higher level of well being. Elephant nutritionists evaluate your diet to recommend ways of addressing various health problems by modifying intake of certain food items.
