What is the difference between a Nutritional Therapist and a Dietician?
A Dietician is a person with a qualification in Nutrition and Dietetics recognised by national authority. The dietitian applies the science of nutrition to the feeding and education of groups of people and individuals in both health and disease. A Nutritional Therapist will have a nutritional and naturopathic approach to health and nutrition, concentrating on addressing the underlying cause rather than simply treating the symptoms. What you eat and ultimately what you absorb can have a profound effect on your overall health including how you feel and your energy levels. By looking at you as a unique individual a specifically designed nutritional programme using diet and supplements together with lifestyle changes is designed for you. This will provide your body with the support to help harness its own remarkable healing powers encouraging you in your return to health. As Lorna is trained as both fields she can offer you a very comprehensive service.
