Nutrition

Nutrition consultation is designed to provide customized nutrition information. This information is presented as it relates to disease, specific nutritional issues, and individual food preferences. The result may be improved quality of life while promoting optimal wellness. UM/Sylvester nutrition consultants work with cancer patients, diabetes patients, pregnant women, and those diagnosed with anorexia, bulimia, or morbid obesity. Nutrition consultations are available to anyone with a doctor’s referral.
Once a consultation has been set up, a registered dietician will meet with you to discuss your specialized nutrition needs. The dietician also will provide information on how to best incorporate vitamins, minerals, and herbal supplements into a healthy lifestyle program. Both individual and group consultations are available. Patients should consult with their doctor to obtain a referral.
