Frequently asked questions
When should I see a dietitian?
See a dietitian if you cannot manage your weight on your own, if you need a nutrition plan for diabetes, cholesterol or a digestive disease, or if you have questions about eating during pregnancy or your child's nutrition.
How long does the follow-up last?
The first plan usually covers 4–6 weeks and is then adjusted to the results. Healthy weight loss is 0.5–1 kg a week, so lasting results need several months of follow-up.
Do I need tests before the appointment?
Not necessarily, but bring blood sugar, HbA1c, lipid profile, thyroid and vitamin D results from the last 3–6 months if you have them — the plan is built more precisely on them. The dietitian will order any missing tests.
What does a dietitian do for diabetes?
They plan the spread of carbohydrates, portion sizes and meal times to keep blood sugar steady and align it with the endocrinologist's medication. The right diet often makes it possible to reduce the dose of medication.
