ISSA Nutritionist
Not only does a nutrition coach act as a knowledgeable guide through information, resources, and facts about nutrition, but they also help clients apply the information to their lives and health situations. Each client, their health status, and their goals are unique, and a nutrition coach can tailor nutrition plans to meet their individual needs. A nutrition coach also helps the client apply the information to their lives in a way that is practical, safe, and easy to follow. What is required is not simply changing eating habits but rather modifying behavior, and this is often overlooked when attempting to achieve nutrition goals. This may include the way individuals think about food, the function of food in their lives, their attitudes toward specific types of food, and their relationships with food in general.
Nutrition coaching empowers clients to take responsibility for their own health by providing resources and nutritional advice as well as coaching the non-dietary aspects of their lifestyle. These can include behavior patterns, well-rounded eating habits, and overall healthy lifestyles leading to total well-being. The goal of a nutrition coach is to teach clients how to be successful and self-sufficient. However, the scope of practice for a nutrition coach limits services provided to protect the professional and ensure proper medical care for clients as needed.
It is likely a nutrition coach will find themselves working with a diverse population of clients, some with preexisting health conditions. The nutrition coach will often assist clients struggling with obesity, food addiction, eating disorders, food allergies, and medical conditions that are influenced by their diets. Athletes, youth, and seniors are also common populations seeking the guidance of a nutrition coach.
