Do you tell your clients that a specific diet is better than others?

I don’t promote one diet over another. I provide them with some general information about eating habits and after that I’ll suggest to them to seek the advice of a dietitian for a more comprehensive meal plan that will work best for them.

Not really diets. I try to stress less of eating a “diet” and more aiming to eat healthy.

As far as telling my clients that a SPECIFIC diet is better than others – absolutely not! My general advice is eating a balanced diet (eating a variety of foods from each general food group). If a client wants or needs SPECIFIC diet advice I direct them to a registered nutrition professional.

No, because one way of eating is not necessarily better than another. Instead, if asked, I will steer them toward basic nutrition guidelines and resources such as a registered dietician and/or Canada’s Food Guide (which could use some updating).

Yes, the one that they create for themselves based on sound nutrition and dietary needs… but only that one… and only for themselves.
